What if Luigi was acquitted and launched a startup that sold guillotines at cost…
Also, your fixation here is on pennies and not dollars. Large systems account for waste and allow for less precise action. They do that because they know that enables less logistical slowdown on average and overall they will be more successful in big picture.
As you grow, you’ll learn to focus on broad strategy and not get lost in fixation on individual tactics. Set good policy and allow people room within to figure it out - without a bummer of a nag in middle management meandering around trying to save pennies at the cost of dollars to justify their existence.
Doesn’t matter what you think really though, right? These businesses operate on measurable KPIs and if overall thresholds weren’t being hit, something would happen.
If you were a manager with that attitude, you’d be a micro manager and we all know that that type of manager, in any sector, SUCKS.
Yes, and speaking to quality in this case is not about individual performances, it’s about overall quality of outcome. Are you familiar with Pareto?
Stop fixating on Janice in accounting scrolling facebook and how you feel slighted by her or Derek in operations who shows up 30 minutes late to meetings. The bigger machine on government side works most of the time, with transparent accountability, on that side, in the case of insurance, it emotionlessly kills people for profit on the other.
Dr: Yeah, no cap. On god, bro.
You wouldn’t patent the “game” you’d patent the various forms of utility or designs within that game. So throwing a sphere at a life form to then capture it could be one patent, but maybe then you’d also file another patent to cover keeping it alive and caring for it inside the ball habitat. You might file the second off of what is called a continuation filling and in combination, as you need both actions to get the full effect, you might get a bit of extended coverage in practice.
But the bigger thing here would probably be trademark law, which is a whole different beast.
Coming home after being out coming all day
Great breakdown. Thank you
Twist: It’s just a blank piece of paper that says, “fuck you” on it.
Hey!!! DON’T YOU DARE call it a far off shithole!!! That is the place were I get the underaged nannies that I get pregnant from! These are the undocumented mothers of some of the children I don’t care about as much as my “on the books” kids, but they have my DNA - so have some fucking respect!
Actually, I sense a little jealously as you’ve probably realized that I can/will be able to farm all of these tier 2 children’s organs eventually to extend the life of my pure A-tier family. Green does not look good on you, buddy!
This doesn’t actually say much about anyone’s actual wealth status in your story, you’re just saying you have more then them I guess? No banana for scale offered.
“They only have 2 yachts and only one can land a full size helicopter - so yeah… you don’t have to be rich to go to Dubai”
How could Brian do this to the shareholders?
You’re argument here is quantity over quality - “these people kill a lot of other people with those decisions, sure… but they make those heavy decisions lightly and quickly and often with an algorithm! That FEELS impressive to me because I’m a toddler that responds to kinetic stimulus for the sake of it and I can’t see any nuance!”
Also, part of what you’re talking about is by design - Republicans shoot their constituents in the feet so those people can then have foot pain to complain about. Then, when complaining gets vocal, the gop politicians come in and say “we need to just get government away from your feet and they’ll be less painful” ---- They are the “government” that shot you and you are the constituent with a hole in your foot.
So whine about government being slow some more.
Luigi, I can forgive a lot, but shareholder value… How could you, man?
How am I supposed to tell my kids about his when they are back from the character building camp I sent them to where they were hunting lesser human beings for sport in an eastern European country I won’t name? This is really going to crush their big, delicate hearts…
“Sen. John Fetterman is one of those who has loudly insisted that the “public execution of an innocent man and father of two is indefensible.” We are expected to ignore the fact that for 14 months straight before Thompson’s killing, Israeli forces have publicly executed thousands of innocent men, women, and children in Gaza with the enthusiastic support of US politicians like Fetterman.”
Normally I’m not one to dig into these things, but I seriously think fetterman died and the dude we hear from now is a stand in. Just such a 180… I remember when he was first gaining national prominence, had some interview in front of a Wawa off the freeway - when I saw THAT guy, I donated to his campaign and called my wife in to say, “listen to this for a second, I think this guy could be the president one day”. That guy has ZERO DNA in common with the “Fetterman” we see and hear from today. It wasn’t a stroke, or if it was, it was fatal.
Good thing the actual Adjustor is still out there, these CEOs are still filing claims…
The corporate media is in the manufacturing business…
Sure, but I think you’d understand that I can’t just take pure speculation though. Could you please source your claim so I can consider what you’re saying when you say he “took Russia’s side”.
Would also be curious of the state he was in while saying that if true, as he’s nearly 100 years old at this point if I recall? Even our heroes get frail and wither, not necessarily representative of their true core positions.
Okay… But regrow them where?
