Amazing. It's nice to see so much push back from all the people I would never hire or choose to work with, ever. The people giving you grief will likely never do anything great or influential in their entire lives. They will never forge new ground or lead anyone anywhere.

I'm very impressed by your thinking and your effort. Good work.

I'm already using it everywhere.

This was anticipated. I receive similar feedback on many of my other articles. This one was exceptionally harsh though ;)

Appreciate the kudos. Cheers!
