I would disagree that 31K is not a lot of money, but then again, maybe it is not a lot of money and my opinion is warped. I think if the government took a few points off for performance as a preferred return on the massive endowments, all of this would go away.
Yes, actors and actions. It's the crux of the use case. I'm still operating under the assumption that UML invented the modern use case. I will not be googling this next.
Love how half his face and such are covered by legal blurbs you need to 'accept'. Call me cynical John, but unless you are ready and willing to explain technically why Meta has dropped the value of so many funds and retirement plans, and also the ball so hard on VR, AR, and come clean about the metaverse being a total marketing ploy to manipulate more money out of the gullible hordes to sell ads: Don't bother.
Virtual billboards anyone? Really, John. Do us a favor and tell the truth about your technology and the goals of your bland, non-relatable team that makes you fill out a W9.

You are the chief TECHNOLOGY officer above all (contractor or not), right? I am not sure you will reply, but I hope you read this and focus on the technology. It would be nice to publish your slides before the 'unscripted' talk.

I am currently taking a similar drug for Myelofibrosis on a clinical trial holed up after a stem cell transplant here at MD Anderson Cancer Center. It's called Itacitinib, and is supposed to prevent GVHD. It's by the same company that makes Jakafi (brand name). These are expensive drugs for sure, and my DR is running the clinical trial. Just wanted to chime in from the inside. ;p
I paid off my student loans each month until I was 34. I did it, and it made me stronger. Making other citizens pay for your loans is selfish, and it will come back to bite the people who accept this largess.
