I believe that was their last tweet before being banned. Do you have a more likely tweet for causing the ban?

There are multiple issues here and people can be upset about some while not being upset about all of them. Musk specifically Saif he would not ban the account that reports on his jets location. He then changed his mind and the account was b

You're asking for evidence that they didn't tweet something? It isn't our job to prove a negative. Just take a look at their tweets and show me the ones where they DID report on the location of the jet. Can't find them?

I wasn't arguing against buybacks. I was just giving some reasons buybacks are more popular with some companies than dividends are.

by fredophile 4y ago
There are a few reasons some companies prefer buybacks over dividends. Probably the smallest reason is that buybacks can save investors money on their taxes. A much bigger reason is that buybacks are viewed as one time events. When a compan

Two things jumped out at me: 1) this seems like a stealth ad for the company that made the tools to gather the data 2) does anyone consider Juul a tech company?

As a consumer in the US I always pay with a credit card when I can. The businesses have already baked the credit card fees into their pricing so I might as well get a few percent back from my card plus the extra purchase protection, etc.

The article isn't against the lottery fee. It's against BAH making more money on the lottery fee than the park ends up making from the people who win the lottery.

Some artists and promoters are already doing a money grab and hiding behind scalpers to do it. For big shows, a portion of the tickets may be removed from retail sales entirely and go straight to websites that are used for scalping tickets

There are companies doing research in applying CAR-T for treating animals. This has a much easier approval process since it is run through USDA and not FDA. I'd expect to see faster advancements in treatment and lowering costs and then

On the balance sheet I'd call functionality an asset and code a liability. Everything else bring equal more code is more to maintain as things change, search through for bugs, etc.

After you vote you have a new option. If you upvoted the option says "unvote". If you downvoted it says "undown". Just check the text after you vote to make sure you didn't fat finger it.

How does this delay GAAP profitability? They paid out 3.5 months severance and their full 2022 bonuses. If they hadn't laid these people off then in the next 3 months (1 quarter) they would have paid them 3 months salary and their full

If you're getting rid of 14% of your staff I expect you to be making a lot fewer hires and having less output, as a result of having less employees, is also not surprising. Those are completely unrelated to the severance they pay their

This is better than standard in the US but I'm not sure I'd be happy if I was one of the laid off employees. That 3.5 months and healthcare buys them some time to start interviewing and line up new work. However, they're comp

I don't think you'll find anyone suggesting that DNP is a good idea for weight maintenance or improved health. However, it will definitely help with short term weight loss if it doesn't kill you.

Fructose in unprocessed foods like fruit isn't a problem. Show me a morbidly obese person who got that way from eating too much fruit. While you don't require carbs to survive that doesn't mean they're harmful or should

Efficiency isn't the only factor. I'd say the most important factor is enjoyment. We each have a finite amount of willpower. If you're using it up on exercise you hate doing eventually you're going to hit a day where you

His argument is pretty poor. The fact that the average person couldn't define the metaverse doesn't mean they wouldn't enjoy it when it is offered. The average person couldn't define a model T before Ford started buildin
