The Miata and S2000 were never in the same class.
The Miata and S2000 were never in the same class.
$32k in 2009 (last year of S2000 production) is roughly $36.6k in 2017. The S2000 was soft-top only. A retractable hard top would have added quite a bit to that number.
Mazda Miata protip. If you tip the seats forward, there should be small compartments behind the seats. They were there on the NC and a quick google search shows that they are there on the ND. Also, apparently on the ND there is a pouch on the seat backs.
You can just yank all the vacuum lines off and plug them. Only the one for the vacuum advance on the dizzy matters. #ionlyworkoncarburetedV8s
I am no fan of the Orange Emperor, but there’s a reasonable chance that whatever work goes on at these locations that’s actually related to concerns other than golf, hotels, and the operation of showers miscellaneous is conducted using more secure systems.
I’m pretty sure those flashing lights in the video is just the framerate of the video not being synced with the refresh rate of the LEDs. Regardless, I’m sure that thing is toast, electrically.
What changed in the 1980s was Michael Eisner. Prior to his hiring at Disney CEOs were compensated on the basis of cash flow of the corporation. Eisner negotiated a deal tied to share price of the corporation, a metric that made him the most highly compensated CEO in America after turning Disney around.
It is all irrelevant if it is on an isolated network. We have WiFi routers at our company that are used by guests or even some internal people (e.g. testers) that we want isolated from the network for specific purposes. We even have a honeypot WiFi network out there looking for those that are trying to snoop.
Yes. While this article is interesting, the idea that the president or anyone on his staff would be connected to public wifi at any time is ludicrous.
The fact that there is WiFi at facilities that Trump uses that is encrypted only using WEP is really pointless if that equipment isn’t used for any sensitive communications. Even getting access to those WiFi routers may not get you onto a network with sensitive information as they may segmented into a separate subnet,…
I’m in full agreement with most of the glaring flaws pointed out here, except this last little bit:
And changes to technology the last few decades has really accelerated the pace of things and changed people’s access to and knowledge of the market. It’s so easy to track stocks now and the big brokers have some seriously fast automated trading programs, and a constant arms race with them. Now you have stock tickers…
Even if you put something in books about this, the companies would do everything in their power to limit profits below that tax point. R&D costs a lot!
A business is in business for one reason only. To make money for it’s owners. It’s that simple. They aren’t there to create jobs. That is a requirement of running a business. One that is being slowly phased out because people with no clue about economics or business are making it more expensive to do business, so…
You are spot on VW.. Keep it a private company and you can do as you please with your company. Incorporate and ask others for capital and the company is no longer yours to do as you please. I think most people could get a lot of Econ101 knowledge from a few episodes of Shark Tank.
To play devil’s advocate: since the shareholders own the company and have capitalized it with millions or billions of dollars, yet have little or no say in how it is operated, why should executives or board members have duties to anyone else? If someone like Henry Ford wanted to prioritize his employees over his…
So my understanding of case law is limited (namely because I am an engineer and not a lawyer...Please don’t fine me Oregon), but my understanding was that it was this very case against FoMoCo that created the legal requirement of CEOs to value shareholders over social value. It would requirement a new precedent to…
It’s been a while since I read any Friedman, but I don’t know if I would lay the blame on him. I think stock market investors are far more speculative these days, and a lot of that has to do with the dominance of institutional investors. Most of the people in the stock market are there in the form of something like a…
To be fair, GM did off-load the entire European presence recently.
Lay off is sort of misleading. They’re offering retirement buyouts, which Ford was probably going to do anyway by September. Basically, it’s just not rehiring natural attrition to a large extent, but maybe forcing that attrition a little earlier than planned for some folks.
