Yes. Put in the time with me to show you're serious. Otherwise you could mass spam candidates, most of which you don't actually care about.

Again, you're getting too deep where you don't need to be. You say "if art becomes a product" while I'm showing you examples from 500 years ago where people were paid to create some of the most famous pieces of art

You're asking a lot of deep sounding questions, but at the end of the day they don't matter much. Michelangelo was commissioned to paint the Sistine Chapel. The School of Athens was commissioned by Pope Julius II. You'll find

It's also important to realize that the reason Uber and Lyft were able to crush the taxi industry is in part because the taxi industry was absolutely horrible to consumers. The simple act of being able to know what I'm going to be

For all we know, maybe a dozen recruiters were laid off during a hiring freeze. Which sucks but says nothing about the job security for the rest of the company or general company health. And for all we know, this person isn't giving th

I agree that space debris isn't too much of a concern if they have a very large grid of these bubbles. A percentage popping over a decade will be calculated in. But L1 doesn't mean it won't get hit. James Webb has already bee
