Good luck keeping restaurants in business at 20% or even 50% regular volume. In a pandemic, restaurant visits drop sharply regardless of what official government policy is. They would have gone out of business anyway. Even now in places tha

Ok, let’s compare with Amazon then. They are also able to capture an enormous amount of value despite being in a very competitive industry (retail). They also are doing other things beyond retail (AWS). It can be both a bubble and people ca

Even if you assume tesla is only making cars (they're doing more than that), why is no one asking why existing car companies are making so little? Why is apple worth $2 trillion based on a phone, while car manufacturers making somethin

Yea, maybe large amounts of cash to the point where you become a target for armed robbers, but handling an average amount of cash in a retail location where most people pay electronically anyway is not really that hard. Isn’t this why Brink

Such a strange virus. I’m 34, just found out I have the antibodies. At no point in the last 7 months did I feel the slightest bit sick at all. So I guess I’m just one of the lucky ones, or it was a false positive. Hope you continue to heal

You would think that with all the baseless complaining he’s been doing on Twitter about Obama “spying” on his campaign in 2016 he’d say see! This was illegal after all. Let’s pardon Snowden and fix this so that future presidential candidate

We were trying to add tools to make it easier to find lewd profiles; their app review process was stopping us from releasing the tools that would allow us to fix the problem.

Then hold our governments responsible. I don’t know why anyone would expect a private citizen, regardless of whether or not he happens to have more than $1 billion, to help with environmental catastrophes. In fact I’d expect them to help th

Maybe they did an unreal amount of harm. That could just be where the math adds up. If they're responsible for 100,000 overdose deaths, with each life valued at an average of $20 million, that adds up to ~$2T.

The auto wiper on the model 3 works so well that I barely ever have to touch the manual control anyway. The thing I do use way more often is the windshield cleaner which does have a physical control. In the rare case where I need to switch
