Cod4's starting loadout was pretty good compared to some games. It was a great all-around loadout. But there were definitely powerful niches filled by unlockables. In comparison, some of the Battlefield games literally give you empty s

This reminds me of Starcraft AI experiments. They can't actually make the computer smart, so they just jam 2000 button presses per second down the tube, giving every single unit its own simultaneous AI, and it out micromanages anyone.

If you have to deal with a lot of task switching, blindly closing browser tabs would be a huge waste of time. You can individually check each tab before closing the ones you don't need, but that takes time and cognitive load. So I leav

It really really isn't zero sum. Ask Google- there will be a lot of good information about it. If value-adding enterprises are unable to market themselves, their business expenses can be forever lost to the world.
