I am shadow-banned and was also banned-banned over Johnny Cash lyrics. If you like this new article, please share it before Bluesky nukes me for including a cross stitch I made of the movie "Die Hard". Thanks!

Like I've said before, if you have any doubts about climate change, just go to a super-boring insurance conference and listen to the super-boring panels where they dryly talk about the growing threat of disasters so catastrophic and unpredictable in scope they simply cannot be insured at any price.

I worked in Si Valley then. Crazy metrics spun by β€œtwo guys with 3 slides” like valuations based on clicks per view or similar. Lots of off balance sheet entities like now.
