If you want to go that far, acting like Pokemon did more than take animals and slightly twist them is bad faith. They're iconic designs because the Pokemon games were ground breaking for their time, not because they were truly original

There is no such thing as a perfectly defensible system. Properties that large require workers to inhabit and maintain, and the more sophisticated the property, the more third party support required. The billionaire who imagines spending th

This is true up to the point where life becomes intolerable for the masses. Then the masses remove the masters. It feels as if elites think globalization has solved this problem, or competent AI might soon complete the process.

Do you not understand how ramp works? She would not be allowed to a sell during the first three months, or only with direct supervision. I'd be very surprised if you've ever worked in a sales first position, given this basic misun

A churn and burn sales team cycle does not speak to a high bar. The companies I've worked with that have taken this approach have been the least thoughtful, and the least productive, usually relying on high pressure sales tactics that

As a Carlin and comedy mega fan, I'd be interested in what you consider a joke in there. Personally, this is the sound of hell. There's no soul, no humor, and only the presence of fake laughter to imply where the jokes are suppose

Cheers, best of luck. The only immediate suggestion I have is the addition of a paid/free distinction. Even better would be a a filter by subscription cost or purchase price, if that's even possible.

That's why the ontological framing is important- notice that 'powerful' doesn't mean anything inherently. Being, on the other hand, is necessary and inescapable for any metaphysical framework. To have anything, being mus
