Both Uber Eats and DoorDash made restaurant listings without permission at first, just like Reddit seeded threads with their own comments at first. It's just a necessary part of building something that requires economy of scale. Neithe

The risk of relying on China for anything military related is too high. They have an aggressive, expansionary mindset and threaten war over Taiwan all the time.

Yes, that's more what I meant - there's almost no cases just from owning cats, it's from dealing with contaminated soil from stray cats. But the internet zeitgeist is "cat litter boxes give you toxo!" which is just

There's so much BS around toxoplasmosis online. 1) Almost everyone who has it got it from eating undercooked meat, not from cats. France has the highest rate of toxoplasmosis in the world because of their propensity for rare meats: ht

No. My background: I've done marketing for 15 years, have read every book on persuasion and have been called an expert. The reason for this is that the most important element of persuasion is Ethos, or your perceived character. This is

Being gulped up big corporations is good. They will much more efficiently serve the market. SMBs are notoriously unproductive. Though maybe you want your drug dealers to be unproductive, for society's sake! I may take this back...

Strongly disagree with your take on albums. I'm a music lover, spotify wrapped always puts me in the top 5% for most artists. I never search by album, always song, and if it's great I'll click in to check to see if the albu
