They did pretty well with Inside Out as well. Bing Bong wasn’t even in any of the promotional materials at all.

If you can handle Ring, you can handle Evil. It’s more of a surreal thriller. You might be pleasantly surprised! There are some horror aspects from time to time, but it isn’t about that. It’s basically “What if X-Files, but Catholics instead of aliens?”

They call it horror. But it’s so much more than that.

Bitcoin is deflationary. There is a hard limit on the total number of bitcoins that will ever exist. Every so often, the reward for mining a block is halved. Eventually there will be effectively zero reward for mining at all.

That might have been true a decade ago. But GPUs and FPGAs have long been obsolete for mining Bitcoin.

Mining is happening on custom silicon in large-scale operations. They specifically observed several of those large-scale operations in multiple nations and extrapolated out. I don’t see how that methodology is flawed.

I know, right? It’s 2023. They should really provide a QR code or something.

Who knows? I thought it was a good use for the tool.

Considering the often-abstract nature of these presentations, I thought ChatGPT might be able to give a decent answer:

Great question! Corporate strategy statements and plans serve several purposes in office culture. First and foremost, they provide a roadmap for the organization, outlining its goals, priorities, and the path it intends to take to achieve success. This helps align everyone in the company towards a common direction.

When executives present these plans in meetings, they aim to communicate the company’s vision and objectives clearly. By breaking down abstract concepts into actionable steps, they hope to inspire and motivate employees. It’s about creating a shared understanding of what success looks like and how each individual contributes to that success.

The use of corporate jargon and abstract language might seem unnecessary, but it often stems from a desire to create a cohesive narrative that resonates with the company’s values. It’s an attempt to build a sense of identity and purpose among employees.

Moreover, these presentations can serve as a platform for leadership to emphasize the company’s commitment to its core values. By highlighting aspects like customer focus, product excellence, and the importance of the workforce, leaders reinforce the company culture and guide behavior.

In essence, these meetings are not just about conveying information; they’re about fostering a collective mindset, aligning teams, and creating a sense of belonging and shared purpose. While it may feel like a lot of effort for seemingly vague information, the hope is that employees leave with a clearer sense of direction and motivation to contribute towards the company’s success.

If someone really cares, they’d jump on the platform I use or they don’t.

What do you do when they feel the same way and don’t understand why you think you’re worth so much extra time and effort to interact with compared to everyone else?

Do you just cut those people out of your life?
