This is very compelling. I humbly recommend that you spend 80% of your efforts in finding ways to market this. What's nice is, it is "viral" in that as people start sharing their music in this way, probably with others in the

I see two slightly distinct questions here, and many people seem to be answering a third, altogether different one. 1) Digging deeper into mental models. There seems to be this fashion these days of people learning "mental models"

Classification of finite simple groups, undoubtedly, is very long and consists of a number of works by many different mathematicians, but the difficulties presented by that proof are of a qualitatively different nature than those presented

Life is a self-sustaining, self-replicating chemical reaction. It obeys the laws of physics. It must somehow preserve the information necessary for its own genesis and regenesis at every generation. It must accumulate the energy needed for

Thanks for the answer mate. I now understand what you mean. I guess we need to just reach out to people more and see if slowly we can cure them out of their thought cancers and they can cure us of ours. Different perspectives make all bugs

Why do you think they're good and smart, why do they think Covid19 is a hoax? Surely a good person would try to do the safe thing even if they had doubts.

I respect your choice; I suggest that you may try doing the same for people putting their kids in cribs instead of calling it weird and Victorian - because studies show it to reduce infant deaths; and it is practiced widely across the World

Some of us cannot afford to not care about "politics" when some politicians want to deport you, have a problem with your skin color, or look down upon gender to the point of not shaking hands.

It's mostly paid out by Uber actually - Uber would start paying for healthcare, payroll tax, unemployment insurance, social security etc. Just like, you know, your average Facebook job except without the 401K matching, stock benefits,

I have so many questions .. 1) Is the 200K euro investment a loan that must be paid back at 40K/year, or is it equity investment? (or a convertible note?) 2) What % time is the CEO + Chairman dedicating to the company? Why is the final

You're already buying into the propaganda - there is nothing to "cover-up" per se, there can't be a cover-up, because there is nothing to cover up, there is no story. Imagine multiple media outlets simultaneously get an

My conclusion is the opposite. The Mueller report was heavily redacted, and misrepresented by AG Barr - precisely because it is so damning. Trump got impeached by congress over the Ukraine scandal later on, again enlisting foreign help. Tru
