I don’t remember hearing about offers that were recalled during the dot com bust. Is this something new that is now the new normal?

I’ve loved wrestling ever since I was a kid as well. I thought it was real until my dad pointed out that the a first person introduced always lost. That’s shattered my innocence but I started enjoying it more as I grew older because I could

This is wrong. Vancouver was never “affordable”. My family moved to Vancouver in the mid-80s and it was by far the most expensive place in Canada. Prices had already climbed rapidly by the time we got there and prices never crashed for 40 y

It’s not about privacy and security it’s about propaganda and controlling what our citizens are influenced by.

The new ui is unusable in my opinion. I dare them to get rid of the old interface.

Ive never had a Hyundai but I recently rented a Sonata and wow! It had all the high end perks of other cars like top down parking view and a beautiful widescreen for my apple CarPlay! And driving it was great! I was seriously impressed and

I have 4 backups (and growing) of all my important digital things especially my photos. I have two separate overlapping backups and every few year I buy a new hard drive and put the old backup drive in storage. I will continue to do this un

The one thing where I disagree is Cisco certification. CCIE, at least back in the day, was the gold standard for network engineer. It was pretty much required if you wanted anything to do with networking. I’m not sure now if that’s relevant

On a mark to market basis ALL banks are undercapitalized. What do you think the banks did in the last several years besides buy bonds at 1.5%? That’s why there’s a distinction because it gives an invalid view as well. Plus there’s a footnot

Their goal isn’t to see a run on SVB. But to save their investments they all told their startups to pull their money which cause svb to collapse. Now they want the rest of their money safe which is why they want a bailout.

When the government has to step in and use money to back things up, that’s a bailout. “Making depositors whole” can only be accomplished if the assets owned by SVB are bought for more than their market value, where the government is on the

Depositors will get a “special dividend” next week which is about 50% of their deposits. The other 50% will be coming as they sort out and sell the assets which would take a couple of months.

The only depositors at risk at startups. All regular people are made whole. And they are getting ~50% of their holdings in the next week. Why are VCs clambering for a bailout? The system works as designed. No need to do anything else above

The truth is VCs are terrified their investments in their startups are going to go to 0. That’s why the biggest most vocal people are VCs talking about this. So they are framing the “we need to make depositors whole” as if they care about s

The main issue is no longer tech. It’s whether or not they have HTM assets that will bring them under if they have a run on the bank. A lot of the depositors are rich Silicon Valley residents and they may get spooked and pull their money. T

This is completely Stripe’s fault for not going public sooner. I hope Stripe and Uber become lessons on how not to let your company stay too long as a private company.

HBO is the only streaming service I am willing to pay $15/month for. I feel like the quality of their shoes are better than any of the rest especially compared to Netflix. Netflix content is very hit or miss but the last bunch of shows

Probably because many advanced countries can’t thrive financially with only one spouse working. In many countries it takes but people working in order to afford things like a house in a safe enough neighborhood to want to think about kids.

I’m in my 50s and I will tell you that your metabolism changes. I was on strict low-carb and I hit a wall in terms of weight that I couldn’t get past. When I did low carb in my 30s I easily lost about 40 lbs but this time around I maxed out

This author spends a lot of time pooh poohing the idea without considering the fact that research could result in techniques that don’t exist right now. That’s the whole point in science and investing in research! How about instead of bemoa

You don’t get to decide the definitions of terms. Historical revisionism is BY DEFINITION the reinterpretation of history. Which as you have admitted, is exactly what 1619 is doing. Therefore 1619 is historical revisionism. If you dare to s

Touchscreens should be outlawed. End of story. They are extremely dangerous. I’ve driven a Tesla for 5+ years now and I hate with a passion how the temperature interface is. It’s the single worst thing about it. And tesla loves changing it
