    - On the flip side, Android has _88%_ of the global market share. Arguably (and quite clearly) the bigger gateway. By a country mile. - What average user side loads apps? That woul…

    If the core issue is the cut, why don’t they target Google/Android instead since there are so many more people with Android phones? Why pick on Apple?

    Everyone knows a "Ted Lasso." I think that's part of his appeal.

    Heidegger was a Nazi, besides, and Being And Time and the concept of Dasein are rubbish -- he was a circular reasoner and a poor communicator -- and B&T really doesn't purport any …

    I remember I read one book when I was a child that promised to raise your IQ by reading pages of a book within seconds like you're looking at an autostereogram. LMAO! These crooks,…

    Wow. I never thought of it from that light. Honestly, that is a problem. You're smuggling in pre-formed language into the thought experiment with its own rich meaning.

    "bai lan" isn't just in China, I fear it's world-wide. And with the looming mini-depression, it could get worse...

    Whenever I think of Egyptian Demons I think of "Pyramids" by Frank Ocean and all the cryptic symobology laid into the verses. Interesting stuff, nonetheless!

    I can see how it can be read sarcastically (now, in hindsight, I'm rubbing my temples), but beleive me I think he's the best the Left has.

    I really love how body parts are consolidated so smartly. "noka" meaning thigh, shin and foot is just brilliant.

    Pathrise hounded me; until they left me in the dust

    Maybe this is something about recruiting that I do not understand, but I was hounded and received several LinkedIn emails from Pathrise only to find that they didn't want me when I…

    I especially like that you included #6 because one big "value" I would say amongst the scientism "community" would be the overt trashing of art and poetry as meaningless. It's very…
