    But are people like that people you want as your co-workers? Serious question, I don't mean this facetiously. I think is an extremely complex question and I wonder if introducing s…

    Oh my goodness I love this. My husband once told me that when I died he would upload my brain into a machine that was constantly playing Cities Skylines. This looks to be focused m…
