Sinopsis

What is Virtual Economy
 
A virtual economy is an emergent economy existing in a virtual world, usually exchanging virtual goods in the context of an online game, particularly in massively multiplayer online games (MMOs). People enter these virtual economies for recreation and entertainment rather than necessity, which means that virtual economies lack the aspects of a real economy that are not considered to be "fun". However, some people do interact with virtual economies for "real" economic benefit.

    Become the leader people love to follow. 
    Have you noticed how broken our culture of work is? For too long, leadership has been defined by the bottom line, at the outrageous expense of the humans leading and being led. Obviously, results matter. But, now more than ever, leaders need to be so much more than a boss wielding the authority of a title to produce results. 
    The lovable leader knows that all people are capable of extraordinary things, that obstacles can empower you instead of limit you, and that your abilities combined with your choices give everyone you lead the opportunity to become a superhero. 
    In this essential playbook for new managers, you will learn principles and a powerful framework intended to guide you as a leader. It will teach you indispensable leadership skills, including how to:inspire your team to greatness while managing different personality types;set goals and hold people accountable for realizing them;create a safe work environment where loyalty, happiness, and productivity prevail;be respected and taken seriously by both your team members and your supervisors;and many more fundamental skills for excellence in your role 
    In The Lovable Leader, author, speaker, and strategist Jeff Gibbard offers an invaluable set of practical skills that will inspire people to follow you, make your organization a better place to work, and might just change the broken culture of work.

    With your passion for the 2024 football season, you want to look smart to both the sports books and your illogical friends. Instead of hot takes from supposed experts like Stephen A. Smith, you want predictions based on cutting edge analytics. In The 60 Minute Guide to the 2024 Football Season, Ed Feng uses his Stanford Ph.D. and decade of experience in sports betting to bring you two stories. First, whether Josh Allen, the gunslinger, is interception prone. Second, the secret to making accurate NFL spread predictions, especially early in the season. This audio preview is not a formulaic team by team preview or a podcast conversation with zero editing. Instead, imagine John Oliver got a math Ph.D. and tells you two of his deep dive stories on your drive from Baltimore to Philadelphia.
