    You have to be prepared to buy and sell subatomic particles, too! Don’t limit yourself like that!

    indeed, will start failing when more people enter the business of buying and selling atoms

    I don’t think package tracking numbers are long enough. 30 digits let you track a mere 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 things!

    Just combining the levels doesn’t work, that messes up the mapping of levels to values. I don’t see a way to add/union factors.

    Any R experts online? How do I union two data frames with dplyr where the values in one factor don’t overlap? Or how do I combine levels?

    Also, I learned that it’s not just possible to make people on abebooks offers way below their asking price, but they totally expect them.
