Feature request: Please add an endpoint that is by stock ticker (e.g. "https://corporate.watch/AAPL", as some companies do their financial reporting on a different calendar, and it would be nice to reference with respect to their "datetime zone".

With the company headquarters as a background image, AI generated with more or less inferno/rainbows depending on last quarter's performance.

Yes, please!

Yeah some publicly traded companies have a different 'beginning of the year' but good luck with finding and making one for each (even with some elaborate on-the-fly scripting).

I think the whole effort was to make a funny landing page that would prompt visitors to check the bread-maker objectivetrackr.

But how long do I have before I need to hand in my deliverables at EOD???

This is going to push things back to NBD

Are we really still doing the "-r" branding (brandr)? It is so tiresome.

It's reasonably easy to get that information from their SEC filings (for public companies), which are all in similar formats, if not exactly the same format. It wouldn't be as hard as you're implying.

Indeed, they even file with the SEC to say WHEN their system starts/ends every year. Investor relations website probably spells this out quite clearly, too.

I do not imply that technical implementation is hard, they probably solved the problem even without AI, just have every step of the process (i.e. for every item going to employee 10 have red-amber-green buttons and red pushed back, yellow keeps but with deviations, green is perfect. And a flow would have all metrics. Some random QC/QA would verify and iron out issues.

It is the "camera in my face 8h" that would get A LOT of attention by member state gov/labour ministry and definitely the EDPS would have a party on their corpses.
