…and leaving nothing behind as proof.
If an alien commander was tasked with wiping out the human race to clear room on Earth, how would he/she/it do it? What would be the mechanism used for accomplishing this grotesque task, and how effective would it be? Would it point to whoever did it, or would it not leave a single thing behind? Incriminating evidence would not be a good thing to leave behind (some of those silly citizens might get mad), so choices would obviously be limited.

DTW is just about the most excessive airport that I’ve ever been to.
Everything about the damn place just screams, “a waste of money!” From a trippy, psychedelic tunnel to trams that carry people from terminal to terminal right above people walking inside the airport, there’s excess everywhere. How can so much money be spent on all the useless features in one airport but not on social services? It’s about time that we reorganized our priorities when it comes to spending.

Internet advertising has grown into a big industry. A $45 billion big industry.
The industry may be enormous now, but it should leave doubts behind. Is the standard approach to advertising on the internet sustainable, and is it even a good deal? A large problem is that on the internet, standard banner ads simply don’t work. They don’t attract customers, they’re nothing more than blemishes on a computer screen, and the majority of the time, nobody cares about them. It just may be time for the industry to rethink its strategy.
