I thought McKay's direction on Vice was pretty derivative off of what he had done on Big Short. I hope he takes the Theranos story in a different direction besides framing voiceover, irreverent cutaways to celebrities/pop culture

I should clarify that the holes in the wall (outer market) are still there. You may still visit them. But you were also able sometimes to enter the inner market, the big curved warehouse, where the actual fish market is, and that has been m

You know what I like to think about sometimes: all of TSMC's facilities, except for one each in Washington and Singapore, are easily in range of mainland A2/AD weapons. Even if Taiwan is unhit, the silicon will be no good if it ca
