Hey! Thank you for what you did, tech culture has made it very easy for most tech people to disassociate themselves from the political consequences of the work that they do for their employers.

My question: A few years ago in Nicaragua we went through a socio-political crisis which ended up in hundreds of civilians killed by the government. Around the same time a vast number of pro-government accounts in social media, specially on Facebook, popped up. Are you aware of any inauthentic pro-government networks active around this time (2018)?

Thanks again!

How does your business (or the part of it that deals with helping men talk to women/get women attracted to them) differentiates itself from PUAs?

PUAs base their "teachings" on very harmful ideas about what women are/should be and I was wondering how a more healthier version of that looks like.

Sidenote: Any tips for a D&D newbie?

Thanks!

It just takes time for these threads to get upvotes and get to everyone's frontpage :P

What some people do is announce the AMA a few hours before they will be actually answering so that people have time to get their questions in.

Doing animation projects all by yourself, while I bet very difficult, is also definitely doable.

You should check out some of the earlier works of Makoto Shinkai such as Voices of a Distant Star and Don Hertzfeldt's It's Such a Beautiful Day both of which were all done by themselves.

Don't give up, make us proud!

That makes sense, don't beat yourself down, you can only do so much! Thanks!
