Lambda did it for a while, but it was only for 2 years, not a decade or two. It looks like they've now move to a slightly more conventional loan structure.

I guess that the scenario where Canada chooses to launch airstrikes against the US and is able to do so successfully just doesn't get much weight in my risk modeling. And in that scenario, things are very bad whether or not Canada has

Huh? What air force has the motivation and ability to destroy a nuclear power plant but not the ability to just drop a nuclear weapon?

100% agree on this. I've attended the weddings of multiple friends from my first job. I'm still in touch with 4-5 people from my second job. I haven't spoken to anyone from my team at Google since the day I left. I had good,

That post strikes me as wildly off the mark. Zillow didn't fail because "many home sellers felt jilted, offended, etc. by this product." They failed because they systematically overpaid for assets. (Anecdotally, the one per
