Out of curiosity can you point me to where that's stated in plain English by the parties involved (if there is such a place)? I must have bad info/assumptions

You could even say "The Fourth" and almost all Americans would understand. I think that's why; [begin speculation] it's such an exceptional date it necessitates saying it differently.

You can also "dump" your service when the money pump won't stop flowing; ie operate at a loss and offer it at rates that competitors cannot beat. EDIT for context: this is illegal internationally when it comes to physical goods in almost all circumstances I'm aware of.

I have worked for a startup operated by a McKinsey alum; he was totally incompetent, throwing buzzwords around constantly without understanding what they meant. I have come to realize his entire strategy was to purchase the company, dress it up in new clothes (without understanding tailoring or fabric) and sell it to another rube.

Very optimistic outlook for you to take towards a government which has taken even more drastic steps in the past aimed at corruption to (from what I can tell) limited effect and great disruption to non-corrupt citizens -- thinking specifically of demonetization. This seems like "big stick" policy to me, a hammer looking for a nail.

I get no use out of the vast majority of objects in my house on a day-to-day basis. I know people in my community need objects that I have. I know people in my community have objects that I need. If they/I had those objects when they/I needed them, the entire community is more productive and "worth more."

The timer prevents the player from performing the same task endlessly. Even trying to do the same task every day of every season is likely impossible. I like the timer, because I felt like it forced me to pick new things and explore every morning.

Growing in warehouses or vertically forces you to substitute the sun with artificial lights

Couldn't one construct pylons outdoors for planting? I don't see why it wouldn't work if you constructed it narrower at each successive plant height.

Some indoor vertical farming I've seen rotates the entire vertical structure, necessitating only one light facing a section of the column. I would expect this kind of rotation might help outdoors as well.

I think the landmine is in looking for some kind of differentiation among humans rooted in the unique genetic patterns of groups of humans (i.e. convicts or members of a given race), not necessarily in understanding how genes shape our behavior generally.

The best college courses I took were ones where the professor frontloaded all the hard assignments towards the first month of the semester. Every slacker dropped out, and for most of the semester we just had great discussions because everyone was doing the readings.

Just like DRM, make it a little harder to skate on by and you actually filter a lot of casual/non-serious people.
