In reality CEOs of very large companies don’t have much to do on a day to day basis. If they set up a good leadership team (which is kinda the main point of their job) they can leave the company be for extended periods of time while playing golf or, say, running another company.

I live the Silicon Valley and I can attest that for quite a few years the answer was Oh God, Yes.

I’ll be SO disappointed if Supaidaman doesn’t get a moment to shine in the new movie.

I’m sure those are dirt cheap these days compared to the cost of a car, maybe it would be a good idea to integrate them in for emergency broadcasts.

Do those emergency radios they have in the Midwest that come to life when there’s a tornado warning work on AM?

Humans have historically been very much about just building on top of the previous thing. Medieval history archaeologists in Europe are sick and tired of Ancient history archaeologists just digging through their stuff in search of Roman stuff, Ancient history archaeologists are dismayed at Israeli archaeologists just…

A general lowering of the interest in the game would cause this, whether the cards themselves are “good” or “bad”.

Well that just delays the reckoning, doesn’t prevent it. At some point the singles and the out of print sets meet the wrong side of the supply/demand curve and things come crashing down.

Well, paralegals do almost all of the work elsewhere as well 😅

IIRC actual lawyers are extremely rare in Japan, most folks have to make do with some sort of “legal assistance” by the equivalent of paralegals.

The Cayman is the better car but Porsche is too addicted to the profit margins of their inexhaustible stream of 911 special editions.

There’s a lot of space between “renting art” and “purchasing art”. A successful artist will usually negotiate keeping the rights of the piece, but the contract will include the rights for the original purpose of the art being transferred to the purchaser. I.e. if an artist creates a piece for use as Fortnite splash…

Folks who aren’t in the industry don’t realize that releasing software is almost as involved as building it to begin with. For very large monolithic apps like major games it’s always going to be a long process involving a ton of people.

The tracks themselves should probably be public infrastructure (they are in pretty much every other 1st world country). Having private operators run trains on them wouldn’t necessarily be dysfunctional.

I’ve only seen one of these in person once, at a Renault dealership.

The board is made exclusively of Musk’s buddies and fan club so nope. The company will have to fuck up until it bankrupts or the shareholders revolt (probably the former considering the ownership structure).

It’s a lovely morning on the road, and you are a horrible goose.

Sure you can follow along with Around the World in 80 days, but do you want to cross Russia by land as a foreigner as things are going right now?
