Fair point. I’m a bit more optimistic I guess. This does put GM/Cadillac on a pace with everyone else, but we already knew they were going to put out 20 odd electric models in the next few years, knowing that they will concerteate on turning one brand electric first to me is a huge win. I’ve long thought one of the…

Cadillac has already had 2 electric vehicles. Since 2014. Yes both were really plug in hybrids, but they have been doing this for 5 years in some form. And they had electric concepts 10 years ago. It’s not a spur of the moment idea, they’re just finally announcing that it’s about to take over the brand rather than be…

I have a super unfair cheat for this one. I have a credit line that’s more than 10 years older than me. It’s great for age of credit! Somehow the way my dad gave me an emergency credit card when I went to school linked me to his account (same for my siblings) and we’ve never taken ourselves off so we all have one…

People who take jobs and interview for others a month later are short sighted and quickly pay the price. I’m glad he left would clearly have been a disaster since he can’t even thing 4 weeks in advance, but it’s still a super shitty move.

We’re not going to agree on much. To me the NFL is in the “sports entertainment” industry and competes with MLB, NBA, NHL, F1, NASCAR, All FIFA top level leagues, and more so is far from a monopoly. It’s like saying if there were only one company that still hires FORTRAN programmers and because I chose to spend all my…

the most obvious one, also absurdly young with a ‘K’ name, Kiffin to the Raiders HC job from USC co-OC with fucking Sark. Those dumbos reached their peak together under Carrol with absurd talent and a depleted PAC-10, but still have been bouncing around and sometimes even failing up for well over a decade!

But that’s the point?

I feel like this is really shitty of him. Like of course take the best job offer you can get, but once you sign stick with it. Is he so dumb that he couldn’t see the potential for January NFL jobs when you took a college offer in December? People seemed pissed that USC tried to block him from interviewing but I would…

Let’s say you are a computer whiz, really impressive. And you send a resume off to google. They get back to you and say “we’d love for you to work for us in our Pittsburgh office on data center automation. We’ll start you at $100k a year.” Is it unfairor absurd that you don’t get to work in Mountain View? No. And if…

Check out the new Kia Niro EV! definitely interesting and the first EV to make me doubt the Bolt is the best current EV for sale. (I’m only impressed by EVs at a remotely reasonable price as that’s the only way they make a real impact so I Teslas don’t do much for me at this point, as impressive as a lot of their tech…

Again, you’re likely right on all countsZ hasn’t thought about the no place to land thing. It’s really such a bummer. Even if I never was much of a fan, Vettel was definitely better than he’s become at Ferrari. And the Ferrari car has become better than what he’s done with it. Really a sad place to be. Hope the…

It would be sad for sure. I just hope for his sake he gets a drive somewhere else that fits him better. Ferrari hasn’t worked for him and as you say, it doesn’t look like they’re going to be in full get Seb the win mode anymore with a new principal and Leclerc who isn’t there to have fun driving no matter the finish…

Not saying this didn’t happen (it did and was infuriating as well) but he did plenty to lose a few with boneheaded driving as well (the last round I watched was the USGP and he spun himself for no reason in lap one, only Kimi driving a great race and Mercedes messing up strategy kept seb’s undeserved championship bid…

Nope. Seb isn’t the guy for ferrari in my opinion. Arrivabene wasn’t great but if I had to drop one I’d drop Seb first. He and the team don’t seem to work together. And oit’s Ferrari, they could realistically hire basically whoever they want. Why keep someone who is underperforming in the car? He clearly is/was…

I think this is fair. Thing is i think it supports my point. He might be great, but he isn’t great for Ferrari after 70 odd years isn’t it more logical to change a driver who doesn’t work for you than the momentum of the whole team? If it was a bad hire, it would be a good fire. 

I mean I’m not going to say I don’t have a strong, irrational bias. But until this year I really did root for seb at Ferrari. I just can only watch the “star” driver throw away so many chances before I see him as the problem. And as for numbers for the number 1 driver on Ferrari, ruining your team’s chances at the…

Totally agree, they should have dropped Vettel if anyone on the team was being replaced, he’s been consistently terrible for a while now. Sure in the fastest car he can win from the front, and in perfect conditions is a fast driver, but as soon as there’s any pressure he goes into desperate win right now or crash…

I had an apartment tow my car because the management when I moved in didn’t give me a parking pass then a month later new staff decided to enforce the parking pass rule. (The lease mentioned parking passes but when I signed and took delivery of keys I asked if I needed anything else and they said no.) By the time I…

Yep, it’s super absurd to frame living in a tiny home as some dystopian nightmare fueled by financial needs. A tiny, crappy apartment might be because of that. But an off grid, custom built six figure trailer (they aren’t all this expensive but it’s not rare to get there) is a luxury for people who don’t want to chase…

In all honesty it doesn’t have to be seriously expensive, but is rarely the cheapest way to date.
