The book of Job is literally written in different parts in entirely different dialects that were spoken hundreds of years apart. The opening and ending is from the older dialect, and written much like a folktale. The middle is newer and written much more like an epic poem.
Even the a single book of the Bible comes from numerous sources.
venture capital firm
I think you're focusing too much on the "Silicon Valley" aspect and not the "Venture Capital Firm" aspect. VC companies exist far beyond just Silicon Valley, and they attract a lot of people (especially lawyers) from places like Harvard and Yale. Could have been almost anybody else, in other words. Vance got the luck of the draw.
I think you mean hand written chart. Nothing stopping us from printing out such charts. I have a chart for how long certain foods keep in the fridge before spoiling pinned to the fridge with a white board fridge food calendar.
Me write pretty one day.
I know, mine was broken at first, too, but I fixed it ha. Just letting you know. Cheers!
Your spoiler tag is broken. Spoilers don't bother me, but you're obviously trying to be thoughtful to others, so I thought I'd let you know. It should be formatted like this:

The text that spoils things.
So it looks like this:

Counterpoint: The internet makes us smart because we can learn how to do anything we need to do when we need to do it. We still need experts for a lot of things, but simple home repairs? Plant care? How to properly separate a wash? et cetera. In fact I'd argue the things that we do regularly we do remember because we do them regularly. Just like we used to memorize phone numbers because calling them was something we did regularly we have different things we can do regularly now and get adept at instead of remembering numbers. The access to information has cut out the middle-man so to speak. I spent half my life not knowing how to properly separate laundry, or how to cook certain meals, because I didn't have anyone available to teach me. I was able to self-teach through the internet. Why is looking it up so bad if you grew up with dipshit parents who didn't know how to do anything or teach you anything before the internet was around? Hell, the internet has even taught me what the right tools are for the job I'm trying to do which is a huge aspect of any type of DIY.
No don't you dare stop the circlejerk! /s
But seriously phone numbers were broken into chunks of three to four digits to even make them something we could remember. Is it so terrible my brain has more space to remember other things instead of strings of numbers?
Yeah they really shouldn't worry about that part. Their mere existence is offensive to the sensibilities.
Politics and censorship in gaming and anime
This. This right here is why you're getting downvotes and no one is taking you seriously.
Politicization of video games isn't a real thing. Games have always been political. Nobody complained about the early Metal Gear games and their critiques of the military industrial complex, nor about the original Dues Ex and it's critiques of corporate control mixed with government control. I mean, Cyberpunk was a pen and paper game way back in the day and the entire cyberpunk genre has always been deeply political as a warning of what happens when corporations usurp power from governments and treat everything and everyone as merely something to extract money from. Wolfenstein is specifically anti-Nazi and always has been and the Nazi's were a political group.
People like Asmongold are being unserious and disingenuous when discussing this subject. To find other people discussing the same subjects, you will invariably only find right-wing voices who are trying to make people angry at something that doesn't actually exist.
And Christianity isn't technically monotheistic either, as it has the trinity of God, Christ, and the Spooky Spirit... errrm... I mean Holy Ghost.
