The power of juxtaposition! Anything that helps pre-firing the clients who wouldn't like you anyway--avoiding all that wasted time and emotional energy--is great
Part of it must have been highlighting the -, even indirectly, versus centering on the + (right?)
@KateBour would approve!
Now think like a Japanese visitor to the closest big city and swap this vista for one of fast food chains in a foreign language with 1 Japanese-language sign for udon noodles...where are you gonna eat?
A crowded, undifferentiated landscape makes a good marketer see bags of cash
Your returns are directly proportional to your investment (not always true!) in both business and most relationships.
Some of us here need to similarly invest time, $$$, focus and heart in community/hobbies/other support so our marriages can survive until we're both in our 90s!
The Charles Darwin/Herbert Spencer force is strong with this one.
Also, with that kind of attitude...if you're up ahead in a dark alley, we'll reroute the GPS! 😉
On the whole I [prefer] Philadelphia...oops, the "fire" analogy.
No disrespect, @calebmatthws--less macabre ones tend to travel better internally at the company--and I'll use your idea (with attribution) in personal conversation
You are likely a fantastic (if insecure?) storyteller in person. Writing can lead to 'paralysis by analysis' because of the possibilities, while conversation is thankfully nonreversible

Being able to redirect your attention effectively is such an underrated skill.
Marketers constantly switch between a wandering mind and a focused mind.
Separating the good from great requires knowing when to stop creating and start shipping.
1500 years ago, this is all we had...and what do you know: it still works and is now counter-cultural :)
Somewhere, somehow, Garfield is chuckling and saying, "I told you so."
Raising a glass of tea to your hopefully much-improved Tuesday...and the hope that Teslas will no more steal power from the rest of us

Everyone relies on technology every day. The breakdown isn’t between people that are pro or anti technology, it’s between people that will accept exploitation in the development & use of tech, & those of us that believe we can do better. That demand we do better.

That's it! Even the original Luddites were ok with 99% of technology — it was the stuff that was 'hurtful to commonality' they opposed. People are going to have a different sliding scale of what and how much they oppose, but the opposing of harmful outcomes is the important part

A great question, and I've met tons of tech workers who are similarly looking for answers
And, imo, there are many: There are lots of ethical companies, research institutions, tech gigs at nonprofits etc etc — or! start organizing at the tech giant or corporation you work for
