      This is a priviledge that comes with vast resources. Do we have those at UM? In the Library?

    6. That’s it. That’s the secret. Run at all the hardest parts of a problem first.

      Would be interesting to understand why this is a good starting date.

      Stereotyping, pigeon-holing, I know why Frey did it, but identity-awareness may be compromised here. Not that they are giving themselves away, but that they are creating characters (complex or otherwise) that may necessitate some processing.
