Virtualization is practically an extension of reality and, financially, a different way of representing ownership. Ultimately, reality exists in our perception, which we experience and verify. Our senses serve as tools that transfer information from the external world into our brains, where this data is then reconstructed in our perception. The reason we dismiss digital currencies is that we see virtual things as “non-existent.” However, if you think about it, the state of existence varies depending on whether it is virtual or physical, and all information processing takes place within our perception, only providing feedback to reality. In perception, the difference between virtual and real is meaningless. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The phenomenon where an organization prioritizes self-interest over cooperation between departments is called the silo effect. A silo refers to a chimney-shaped grain storage warehouse, named for its high, stacked walls that isolate it from the outside. If someone controlled the opening by creating only one funnel-shaped outlet at the bottom of the storage room, they could monopolize the grain. This phenomenon often arises when there are ‘irreplaceable talented individuals’ in an organization, which presents a challenge for a boss desiring to develop such individuals. It undermines all the positive functions of the organization. Exceptional individuals organize their impressive performance so that the organization can sustain that performance even in their absence. Misusing talent can ruin a business. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
