Ok but even then, Nissan officially discontinued U.S. production of the Nissan Versa. These things don't sell. American's by-and-large don't want them.
in addition to corporate aircraft, drivers, physicians, security, etc... it's high time boardrooms start provisioning high-performing CEOs with concubines.
I don't really understand the common wisdom that if you get enough when you're young, you won't want it later. It wasn't espionage, but Shannon Sharpe just lost a $100M ESPN media deal last year for chasing young tail,…
This is right and it's wrong. Every inexpensive car in America utterly fails to sell. Dodge tried with the Dodge Dart 2 in 2013 and it lasted 3 years before they ended the model for lack of sales. Mitsubishi has tried…
They use more sophisticated domides based off Thalidomide these days (2nd gen Lenalidomide, 3rd gen Pomalidomide, and next gen Mezidomide is in trials). But yes, it was very effective as a treatment. When it was…

Well, not wiped out. In bankruptcy, lenders become the new equity holders. But yes, a major haircut on the loaned funds.
How much self-flagellation do you want from me brother
Because the friction of moving from Tennessee to California is very low. The valley is full of founders and developers from middle America. Marc Andreesen is from a town of 800 in Indiana. Low regulation is a necessary…
You're right, it's only required in the largest European economy, I should have been more specific.
instead of 'money', the more precise term would be 'risk capital'. And yes, Europe has a stark shortage of that, which is why Euro startups raise in the US and when they go public, they go public on the US exchange.…
Lot's of low hanging fruit. How about when creating a corporate legal entity not requiring public notaries to spend several hours reading the entire corporate charter out loud to all signatories before signing.
The level of regulation between California and Germany is much wider than between California and Tennessee. Ever tried to incorporate a GMBH?
OK but that's not an act of war any more than supplying Ukraine with intelligence and drones is an act of war against Russia. Words mean things, especially and most of all in legal settings.
NEE isn't a pure utility, they are a hybrid of two businesses. Their Florida Power & Light (FPL) subsidiary is a regulated utility which the state government caps ROEs of at 10.95%. Their other subsidiary is NextEra…
If you listen to utility executives talk (and they have to talk a lot to wall street), they have been very clear for about 30 years that the number one reason they built everything other than nuclear was cost.…
BP share price was over $100 the month before the disaster. They sold $45B in global assets and subsidiaries (including most of their refinery business and land holding 6 billion barrels of proven reserves) and cut…
Who is capable of doing what again? BP wasn't even the one running or managing the drilling, it was another corporation called TransOcean. If you mean human industry is capable of damaging the environment, then yes, but…
How do you arrive at the conclusion that cuts to transfer payments (entitlements) cause economic harm but cuts to productivity (capital investment) does not? One has a disproportionate first-order effect on the poorer,…
While literally true, this is not very insightful/useful information because Obama entered office at peak deficit spend to counter the mortgage crisis, and Biden entered at peak deficit spend to counter COVID lockdowns.…
Entitlements and interest expense are more than 100% of revenue in 2026. That's the before the military, foreign aid, the courts, NASA, and anything beginning with "Department of". The deficit is structural, and while…
We only have chat/email based support, no experience in phone trees. If the agent determines the question is outside of defined scope, it puts it into the human queue. We are seeing very low rates of improper filtering…
For us, they are still at the same scores as before AI agents.
A lot of the HN crowd is a lot more technically capable than the average consumer. The more competent customers never see the 80-90% of inbound ticket volume that are items answered in FAQs that can be solved with an AI…
