But by that metric you can't purge the world of your GTA playsession either. Is the world a worse place every time somebody jaywalks in GTA (and records it)?

I want to call it iterative narrative design. This is basically what many authors do anyway. They write something. Read it at a later time and then rewrite it.

I built up an association graph kind of like you. If I remembered about A it reminded me of B, C, and D (or vice versa). One of the tricks I learned was too condense the beginnings of these graphs into their own set of keywords that were re

I don't think advertising is what creates a desire for a product. I think that desire exists beforehand and advertising mobilizes it. I didn't know I wanted a smartphone. Ads didn't make me want a smartphone. But when I got a

The best or most effective isn't always in consideration. At least outside of the US, you get what has been approved for care and only if it's not too cost prohibitive. If governments were making their own generic drugs and sold t
