I guess that's why it doesn't cost anywhere close to $100!


Why would the executive (or anyone) continue to do the job?


I don't understand the question. Do you mean all executives are irreplaceable?


Think of it as an investment not a job. Plenty of people do startups and take zero salary early for the upside later on.


So would those executives be stripped of their stock that they acquired earlier if they decided to leave. Or how would it work?


I was wondering how they expected customers to install some of these items in multi-unit buildings. At the bottom of the page it appears this is being done in partnership with property developers and not sold directly to customers.


Very well done! I was not familiar with this game before, and I somehow missed the "help" link, but within a few minutes I was able to understand the game and actually managed to finish a game shortly after. I'm a big fan of these casual games that have very simple interfaces.


Thanks! I'm glad I could share the fun of a new card game with you - and also that my help link was understandable :)


After playing I've found it will automatically deal the next row of 3 without you having to do anything. That way there is always a possible set on the screen. Definitely a bit uncomfortable wondering if you are looking for a set that is not possible.


Sometimes no player finds a set. In that case in real life it often helps to rearrange the cards. Maybe this would be a good feature


I believe Skype was another


Not the parent comment but I have heard that it is fairly common among UPS/FedEx drivers. I do agree the notion sounds pretty outlandish. To play devil's advocate, I would say it is likely more common than many people would initially expect.


10-15 years ago, I was certain that "bullshitting" people was going to disappear in the near future. It seemed inevitable that people would just pull out their phone and fact check any scam or lie. In a bizarre twist, it appears the opposite has happened.


Yeah... with 1000 conflicting versions of any event, it's more difficult than ever to sift through the misinformation. Then one brilliant soul will say "aha, I know the solution, I will hire experts and engineers to efficiently sift through information sources and present people with a version of truth we can be confident about!", behold the birth of the 1001st version of events.


Fact-checking is more convenient now, but there's still no antidote for a lie someone wants to believe.


If you can put information in someones eyes, you can bullshit them.

That only costs money in 2018.


Have you considered those symptoms are more commonly associated with caffeine which is also found in Sprite? Sounds like your tolerance may have lowered.

Edit: I stand corrected, Sprite does not have caffeine


Sprite doesn't contain caffeine


Saw this a little bit before it was reported. Thought it was some bizarre Veteran's Day memorial.
