10% can be enough to make you a majority shareholder, especially at a startup that doles out bits of equity here and there.

Is there anyone who doesn’t want to see Joe Buck banned for life?

All the good hockey writers have left, the NBA sucks, pitchers and catchers don’t report for another three weeks and regular season football is over. Billy provides content. What you think of that content less important, especially given that you already clicked on the (and even stayed long enough to leave a comment).

I’m surprised they didn’t try to take into account market fluctuations in euro-pound exchange between the time the agreement was settled, the time it went into force, and the time cash was actually transferred. I bet that could add up to a couple million there, too.

This was something that confused me about the article, too - when talking about kilocalories we usually call them Calories, with a capital C. This article doesn’t seem to make the distinction and sometimes talks about calories and sometimes about Calories.

They’re also sitting ducks to strikes from aircraft (manned or unmanned) and small, mobile watercraft. Everything you’ve said about improved munitions for shipborne artillery goes x-fold for guided missile systems, some of which are now small and simple enough to be used by children. Can they one-shot a battleship?…

Why is it so hard to have a corporate policy saying that if you reply-all to complain about being on a reply-all, you get fired immediately? Anyone that dumb is clearly too dumb to do whatever their job is.
