While my opinion is nothing more than armchair general - I agree. The overwhelming evidence supports this, even before the incredible counter offensive. Even prior to the arrival of HIMARS, the decimation of Russian…
I presume he is thinking on the basis of Russia deploying another 200,000 troops and the effect that may have on undoing the gains of late (whether it will or not is another matter...). Extending that thought process,…
That's not what I said. I just pointed out that your emotional response that backs your argument isn't necessarily reflective of what actually happens.
> "The rest is rotting" Is it, though? Because operations I've been to use every last available ounce of the tree. Trunk and limbs are sawn, small limbs, branches, bark, and offcuts are ground for biomass heating. Yes,…
Some trees can grow over a century. Some can't. Some trees growth top out by 50 years and then grow incredibly slowly (sequestering carbon at a much slower rate). Some grow for 300 years and sequester carbon at a…
Trees only have a finite lifespan. Even "wild" forests reach end of life stage and that's when responsible logging and forestry management can promote healthier forests. Using those trees sequesters the captured carbon…
In the last two years I've been committing just 16-24 hours/week of actual sit-down-at-desk work to the projects/contracts I've worked on. Despite not working 40 hours, I hit all my deliverables and leave my clients…
There isn't sufficient margin in drink to float a pub. The margin is in food (and to an extent, dispensed soft drinks). Because priority becomes food over drink, people are willing (and able) to drive further for a…

The scam is misrepresentation. There's an almost intangible line between "fake it til you make it" and "fraud". There's pushing that line, and there's jumping over it. - Misrepresented previous client list -…
how do you expect the producers of the content you consume to continue putting out the content you want to consume if they're unable to monetise that content?
Nice edit. How do you justify your $1000m valuation of a company that generated $700m of PROFIT in a single quarter?
Bold assertion immediately following a pandemic in which the demand for rentals fell to... zero. It took a significant pivot for AirBnB to recover and maintain revenues.
