The UI covers itself on a large screen with no way of viewing what's underneath, not great

Once you look, you see this all the time when new CEOs join large companies, they feel the need to mark their territory by taking a dump on it.

Horse labor went away is a objectively decent argument

Made harder by the fact that we make it illegal and hostile to build housing

FDR created the US welfare system which destroyed socialism in the US. I'm not predicting the future but it has basically happened before.

I think people are blaming AI for a recession caused by trump’s tarrifs and the oil crisis. Businesses fear that oil prices may explode until enough of the economy enters a recession that oil demand decreases, and are already feeling the supply crunch

Until last year, the share of wealth by the 1% had been basically flat at 31% for a decade

Your expectations aren't matching reality

There is plenty of research, it is all kept as trade secrets because they are in a competitive business environment

I made sure to mention that several times while complaining about the cuban government overall.

I can't find the article but I did read a few years ago most had left to either Mexico or the US. The US had a very favorable program for cubans to enter, work and stay in the country under the Biden admin.

The cuban government via National Office of Statistics and Information admitted it fell by at least 10%, but have not done a census in 15 years. Independent estimates range form 18-24%.

Cuba let 20% of the population leave in 2020-24 so that they would have fewer dissenters in the country who might overthrow the government. Thats a higher rate of population per year than the peak of the great Irish famine

This was the situation in the past, but the US has now forced Mexico and Vueneusalia to not ship Cuba gas. Of course the cuban economy is so weak it can't afford solar which could solved this, largely due to their own failures

The US has had an embargo on Cuba for a long time that exempted Food and Medicine, while other countries freely traded with Cuba.

However, under the Trump admin it has turned into a de-facto blockade of all fuel, which really isn't the embargo, it's a new blockade by the US against Cuba. So I don't get why we blame it on the embargo when the current problems are clearly caused by the blockade.

Cuba's previous economic problems are driven by a complete lack of economic reforms, as unnamed Chinese officials said in this FT article two years ago:

https://www.ft.com/content/9ca0a495-d5d9-4cc5-acf5-43f42a912...

  "China publicly supports Cuba’s right to choose its own path to economic development “in line with its national conditions”, but privately Chinese officials have long urged the Cuban leadership to shift from its vertically planned economy to something closer to the Chinese model, according to economists and diplomats briefed on the situation.

  Chinese officials have been perplexed and frustrated at the Cuban leadership’s unwillingness to decisively implement a market-oriented reform programme despite the glaring dysfunction of the status quo, the people said."

I agree what the US is doing is horrible, but Cuba is not blameless on their overall situation

The thing is grocery stores make very little money, usually low single digit percentage profits, that surprisingly low rates of shoplifting can sink a store and force it to close. Shoplifting, especially the trend of rich people performatively shoplifting, dramatically harms the local community

I think its a good fear to have, I feel like many sites dies when the main path of discovering them broke for one reason or another, who knows what the path to discovery of this site is would be for a student today.

This is Costco literally suffering from success, they have had an enormous growth in subscriptions yet opening stores takes time, faces regulations, has limited availability

Right I forgot we waived the jones act. Refiners are hard to come by in CA though as they keep shutting down

Texas is better at this because they don't restrict solar with “enviromental” nimby lawsuits.

They are being strangled, it’s their choice to tap out is how I would put it.

The improvement in air quality is due to the clean air act, catalytic converters, and the shuttering of industry, the gas blend plays a minor part. Even then, with gas so much higher it will materially make peoples lives worse, at some point society would be better off getting rid of the blend.

Once again, its illegal to use that oil in California due to (imo bad) environmental regulations

CA mandates its own blend which it is dependent on imports for

CA’s requirement that it gets its own blend of gas is combined with how its openly hostile towards its ever decreasing refineries and that it is impossible for a new refinery to ever open makes it’s supplies absurdly limited

HIPPA exists and has a lot of teeth. Given this extensive liability, I trust that if anything does go wrong they will be punished. Recordings might dramatically improve patient outcomes, and so I will let them

Ok but the main limit people care about is music and video streaming being treated differently

This is another reason why etickets are used, they regenerate the barcodes

Im going to be harsh, sorry.

In this case nobody is forcing them to buy a dodgers ticket. It’s a completely optional and absurdly expensive luxury good that is purely for leisure. They can simply not but a ticket if they don't want to accept conditions of sale.

There is no guarantee people with no wants will have kids, in fact I expect the opposite

Like imagine how much better the James web could have been with such a large and cheap launch vehicle.

I actually dont think the world will collapse by next quarter so am willing to bear the risk of doing so by having higher P/E.

If you the read article, you would see it explains that what they release are not microplastics. They are instead a soap used to get them to unstick from their mold in production.
