It’s not raising any money in this offering; it’s just letting existing investors sell their shares to the market.

Does anyone know what framework an appellate court will use to review/revise the damages? The article says $22 million is the state max, but are there other factors that will reduce the amount further?

It sounds like the client abandoned the project altogether, rather than taking receipt and not paying. So it’s more like a project that was started but never finished — and now the developer is giving it away because there’s nothing else to

It’s an acquired taste. Like soccer, all of the action happens in short spurts and you’re never sure when it’s going to happen (if it happens at all). People coming from the Netflix series had too-high expectations for the action.

Why do you want to ban them? If it’s to stop them from harming society, the legal system is already set up to do that. If punishing behavior isn’t working, trying to punish potential behavior doesn’t seem promising either.

But in terms of the appropriateness of calling the feature “autopilot,” it seems that Tesla’s feature is as deserving of the name as an airplane’s autopilot (the driver/pilot still has to remain alert and focused on what’s happening).

As a finance major, I don't really want my wife whispering "EBITDA" in my ear late at night, so I can believe this conjecture even if the article isn't convincing.

Most middle- and upper-class Americans take a driver’s education course (like what you’ve described) prior to receiving their driver’s license. In 10 years it won’t even be necessary because nobody’s going to be driving themselves anyway.
