I have a very early ID.4 and I’ve yet to receive any update since taking possession. I did just get a safety recall notice, which as I understand it, once fixed will enable further updates.

I’ve always perceived mid-tens Uber as a regulatory arbitrage and gov’t subsidy play (GPS, regulatory incompetence as subsidy) masquerading as a tech startup, with a sideline in loss-leader pricing (thx SoftBank). I don’t want to diminish t

Fixed. I’ve edited my reply a few times. I can’t imagine a tech-bro ever employing me. Given the baseline on the site it is not an unreasonable guess. I don’t have a mythologized impression of the Midwest. I spent a lot of time working in e

Or centralize it in the Midwest and put it next to the work that enables us to eat and use diesel to make consumable calories. Columbus, Des Moines, Oklahoma City. This is the way. I fixed this in response to Green Man's comment.

Related to some of the high-stakes scenarios discussed in the post. If you advance in large organizations you’re likely going to encounter a strategy cell or unit. Get into a mutually beneficial relationship with these people. If they’re ef

WX/Climate is one of many variables in the human experience. A big one though. I’ve spent a lot of time reading up on 1550-1650 lately and I am struck but how much worse everything became during a sustained cooling period. You can’t

I think there is still a pathway to things calming down, especially if FRB and other verticalized regional banks can make it over the next few weeks. I suspect if things do go, it will be in CMBS. I don’t think office assets are being fairl
