It’s almost like we are living in a Gilded Age and reaching pre-Great Depression wealth distribution....

Are you building for resiliency or profit? This quarter’s profits or tomorrow’s profits? Today’s systems don’t give you credit for fixing tomorrow’s problem. You only get penalized for spending the money this quarter. The balance between doing the thing and paying for the thing you need to do is complicated. Kicking…

ooooh, yes please! more MotoGP Coverage!

Mir missed that final apex by a mile... if he had not botched that final corner he could at least have still tried to block their line, but instead he basically moved out of the way for them
