There's no will to regulate such because those who would be regulated pay the most in "donations" and "campaign contributions" to those who would be regulated. My proposal: if you, a corporation, is a recipient of a

Donald Trump is known for stiffing people. His administration will reflect his pettiness.

by NickC25 2y ago
Correct. Donald Trump has had a reputation for stiffing people for close to 50 years now. These workers will resign, and won't get paid what they were told they'd get paid. This is a man who is so cheap, so petty, he held up bill

I'm in South Florida. There are 3 Whole Foods within a 15 minute drive of me, 4 Publix, 2 TJ's, a Sprouts, and 2 Costco locations in that same range as well. Nowhere have I seen eggs.

Some of the best hip hop producers were taken too early. Jam Master Jay (of Run DMC fame), Dilla, Nujabes, all gone in their mid 30s.

> Nujabes' lofi aesthetic seems intentional. He was using old equipment such as the MPC60 and SP1200. The SP1200 in particular has a "sound" due to its 12-bit architecture. And when Nujabes was writing said music in the

Debatable - is Pete Rock not up on that same level? What about DJ Premier?

+1 for Shlomo. For those on Youtube, check out OGDONNINJA. He has a channel of literally thousands of old-school underground boombap hip hop tracks, in their dusty and 12-bit glory.

He's the modern GOAT of that genre for sure - but Nujabes' productions literally pay homage to the sounds of the SP1200, MPC60, etc that really made early hip-hop what it was in the early 90s. If we are to think of who is the GOA

Can you provide proof that such operations are, or were, ongoing at the time of the convention? And if they were happening, in what scale or magnitude? And once that's done, please also show real-world examples of some of POTUS47&#x27

In finance, nothing is illegal if the profits outweigh the fines. Citaldel paid handsomely for order-flow information from Robinhood. They made a lot of money off retail traders. They paid a fine IIRC equivalent to a few day's profit

Of course you're not a failure. You still put food on the table, provide for your loved ones, and have a roof over your head. You've got battle scars, and stories that are worth their weight in gold. Your experience is probably

He also has a major donor who owns Meta, and a major donor who owns Twitter/X. He also has a daughter who is the only American to hold patents in China without having to license IP to a Chinese company. We are about to see some strange

The irony of Americans flocking to a CCP-approved app whose Chinese name is translated to "little red book" is just a bit too on-the-nose. For those who don't know, Little Red Book is also the literature spread during the

You'd spend $0.18 per share, yes, but the option's price is $18, not $0.18. So your return would be roughly 4.1x, not 488x. Remember options contracts are counted in hundreds, so $0.18 is the price per share, not per contract.

I get that completely - and you're completely correct: most research isn't ready for clinical trials let alone commercial distribution. And even then, only a small amount of reproduce-able work matures into a finalized product.

The song remains the same - the stock can only go to zero. The upside of a put is effectively capped at (strike price minus stock price) * 100. Going long via shares or calls is unlimited.

A lot of that research is primarily done in university labs, mind you. On the taxpayer dime. Somehow the research escapes a lab and Pfizer manages to put some stupid name on it and reaps billions in profit.
