You say this as if the only way this happens is through a big top down conspiracy. In reality it's several separate actors with aligned incentives that create unnecessary headwinds to the adoption of cost saving medical advances To pre

Why do we need to give leaches like Intuit anything? We want to minimize the income of companies like that. The tax code and filing process should be optimized for efficient use of government resources and tax payer time. There should be ze

It's probably (as with so many things) both. Smoking could easily both provide acute relief from mental health issues while chronically making those same issues worse.

That's the assertion ARM made. Yet it seems to me that is is pretty unclear that this is an open and shut case of trademark infringement. This appears to an example of fair-use to me as there is nothing her that would indicate any pote

This study seems like it is just yet again confirming the correlation. Since they aren't performing any intervention, all they can do is statistical analysis to show the strength of that correlation. I am not convinced by the argument

Both accidents happened prior to the release of FSD so were using Enhanced Autopilot. However, in 2019 Tesla had stopped selling the EA add-on and only sold FSD. They started selling EA again in 2022. The claimants here could well have boug

Tesla has been reckless with their self driving claims and safety for far longer than FSD has been available to the public. The suggestion here is that getting hit for those earlier reckless claims might hopefully get them to be less decept

So completely irrelevant to the claim that Musk's ownership bid "dragged down the price" which is clearly false. Of course some investors believed it was possible to hit $77 again, but the probability and timeframe of doing t

Maybe when you engage is random speculation you should at least try to check your facts? The stock price was 45.08 when Musk made his offer for twitter and 51.70 when the twitter board accepted it.

You must not have read to the end, that response is quoted and directly addressed. I guess it is naive to believe that review sites review products based on their merits rather then based on how much the affiliate links pay.
