   Thanks for refuting this blatant distortion of Andy Grove's thinking. Unintentionally or willfully, the OP sought the credibility of a seminal book to support a soft-headed presupposition. The kind that engineer nurtures when real lead

   Correct. The author would be screaming "cultural marxism"[1] if that anti-semitic conspiracy theory wasn't already discredited. The facts of this piece are pretty specious here as well. Boris Chicherin, for example, died in 1

    As per usual, the GP sees the matter from a purely technical perspective, which occludes the larger business insight that the top-level comment provides.

    Super Paper Mario's movement felt quite similar to Thousand Year Door, which was to its detriment as the former was a platformer and the second was an RPG.

    I'd argue for "actively bad". The pretense of truth isn't just a a distraction; for a large enough group of people with a great number of articles, it's a fog. It prevents all but the eagle-eyed or the timely from p

    Correct. Duties precede rights. In the African savannah of 50,000 years ago, our obligations to each other saved us from extinction. As hunter gatherers in tiny bands of ten people, we had to do everything as one. There was only “we”, no “I
