What's worse is in the very near future, if you write a story like the above you'll get sued into oblivion. They don't do it yet. The outcry would be too huge now but once the internet has been fully mainstreamed, the gag orders and demands for damages will start.


This concurs with my own experience precisely. If I take too much insulin I have to take sugar to counterbalance the dose but this is no hardship as I find I have an enormous, unstoppable craving for sweets beyond the physical necessity.


Hillary will win despite anemic turnout.

In accordance with the $3Million in donations she's received from Tata and Infosys she will immediately move to increase the H-1B visa intake by 5x to "allow American business to be more competitive"

An IT grass roots org will start a petition that draws 5 Million signatures to oppose the move and it will be ignored.

20,000 newly unemployed US IT workers will vow never to back Hillary in 2020 and vote for Carly Fiorina instead.


I lived in Japan and had a Sempai (mentor). You do lots of menial jobs for them for a very long time. This proves you have the tenacity required so they're not wasting their time and allows them to profit off you from getting cheap/free labour. Eventually, if you show self control, they may allow you to step up with learning. This can take 3-5 years. I don't think many people are willing to go through it, frankly. Sounds nice but it's a hell of a sacrifice and a gamble. Your mentor might be a dick.
