The people who don't wash their hands seem to believe that the only reason to wash is if they get pee on themselves.

I have to imagine they only bathe if they pee their pants or something.

They don't seem to have a problem with people touching their genitals or dirty surfaces and then immediatly handling other people's food, shaking hands, or sucking on their fingers.

Charging from 0 to 100% really shouldn't be the goal here.

Ideally you would be charging to about 80% for just daily use, and only going 100% if you are planning a longer trip.

Unlike a gas car, you don't want to wait until it gets to 0% before you start charging it. Just plug it in when you get home and it'll recoup whatever you used that day.

That's peanut oil that separates naturally from the rest of the peanuts.

Stirring it just reminds it that it has a job to do.

Glyptodon are mammels too, and a direct ancestor of armadillos! The -don in the name does imply dinosaur, so I can see why one would make the assumption.

$12.5T is about a third of the total, which is $37T. $24.5T is the other ~2/3s

Neither visionary nor a founder.

There's kind of a difference between "whoever happens to be wealthiest at the moment" and "The 0.001% of the population that is three times wealthier than the bottom 50% of humanity combined."

I have absolutly seen people who are unskilled at picking up and moving boxes. It's not a task with a high skill floor, or a particularily high skill ceiling, but it exists.

And somehow my company has been uniformly capable of identifying and hiring these people.

I really liked Adrian Tchaikovsky's stuff. Particularily "Children of Time" and a lot of his standalone novels like "Alien Clay", "Shroud", and "Service Model".

Another good book that explores truly alien aliens is "A Fire Upon the Deep" by Vernor Vinge. I really like how a lot of concepts are presented in a way that initially lets you sort of figure out whats going on before too much exposition is used to clarify alien ideas.

Finally, I need to recommend David Brin's books, like the uplift trilogies or oven his weirder stuff like Kiln People. He does a good job of establishing a technology or social convention and building a world around it.

Seems like a lot of math they could argue.

Fine them daily gross income for each identified product for each day since the last inspection with no findings.

Make them beg for more frequent inspections.
