Unless you did have a fire sale and it went for $2M - that's what it's worth at that moment in time. Sure it could be worth $10M in the future, but it isn't right now.

I may argue that the $2t became a $2t company because it cared about the 0.01% rounding errors it faced / faces in every part of it's operations. Where that lands ethically, morally or legally is up to interpretation by the releva

Difference is - are you a musician who wants to earn money from playing, or just want to play for your enjoyment? You can do both, at the same time, but one has external expectations you shouldn't forget about.

Car-styled seatbelts with shoulder restraints already exist in newer business class seats. The shoulder but detaches too so you only have a lap belt when lying down.

Full power and off we go. My mains had just touched and ATC called for a GA, they obviously saw something I didn't and I was airborne a few seconds later. Circled and landed with no issues. It could've been anything from metal on

Yes - I think that's more or less what I was trying to say: Two aircraft on the active runway at the exact same time? Usually not allowed. Two aircraft one after the other? That's okay. Clearances are for future events that lead t

This is slightly incorrect. Only one aircraft is actually allowed to depart/land on a given runway at any one point in time. You can have clearance to land after the aircraft in front has landed or departed, but broadly two civilian ai

Lots of comments and obviously this seems like a big deal - but it usually isn't. Disclaimer - PPL, fly mostly twins under IFR, in Australia (still ICAO, if anything we're more or less a copy of the FAA). Most heavy jets are cover

The GP on twitter was laid off almost two months, and not given their severance as far as we can tell, or given any notification of severance. More or less they were fired on the spot, and they'd have to find some legal means to recoup

At a first read it's a bit ambiguous - but essentially Musk is more or less "staying in the office without paying rent", waiting for the "landlord" to try and kick him out using legal means, or renegotiate for a low

Most CV's I come across now average 18 month stints before a bump in level and change in company. That is not them being untrustworthy, it's signalling that they will move if they are not recognised for their work and growth. Gene
