I have to agree, if this ran all day it'd produce 2880 consoles. How do they keep up with launch demand that sees millions of units shipped in a span of a month or two?

Will the establishments then turn away from Macron next election, when they can put up more formidable candidates? My American birds-eye view is that Macron is not very popular.

As I understand it, Uber/Lyft were making a profit on actual rides in the mature markets. Uber was taking a heavy loss on each food delivery. So this crisis has been a double whammy to margins even though I suppose increased volume

Was the "voter-base" that put him in power primarily of the left or the right wings? Or more to the center in general?

I understand that there are more than two political parties. I'm not that blind of an American. Just curious how most Frenchmen view their own leaders on the spectrum.

I'd assume that with something like intensity that as long as the "ratios" of "RGB" values so to speak stay the same, your brain would interpret it as the same color, but that's my thought!

Semantically agreed, is there anything wrong with hoping lobbyists for oil companies and weapons manufacturers lose their jobs, for example? :)

I don't doubt that the market for travel and accommodations will return. What I doubt is whether Airbnb can weather the crisis without meeting financial ruin, and whether they can continue to fight the legal battles around the world th

Yeah, the 2 billion dollars in loans will be enough to ride it out. I doubt whether they'll ever recover in the long term from this, though.

The short term affects the market. Apparently Airbnb spent a lot of money on an Olympics marketing partnership, that's down the toilet. They've taken out 2 separate 1 billion dollar loans, one at 12%, another at 8%, in the last mo

Yeah, 28x the engineers for research at Google makes sense -- I'd say the work Google is doing is at least 28x more expansive, complex, etc. 700 engineers is quite a lot for a company of this size!

That doesn't mean that the system as it exists is good. The system as it exists isn't perfect. Maybe listening to those coming at it with a fresh perspective gleaned from youth would benefit society a bit.

It's not access to culture, it's access to job opportunities and avoiding a commute on highways absolutely clogged to the brim with commuters. Boomers get the blame for capturing regulatory agencies in zoning and housing construct
