I have no evidence to support this but it would be worthwhile to look at increased instant gratification from digital channels compared to reading a book for "fun." Adults look for a reprieve from hardship (labor) and turn to easy solutions. Rise in services delivering fast food is another example.

I always wonder why all call centers don't give customers an option to have an agent call back. It's such an easy thing to do and doesn't cost more. It creates so much goodwill for a company when customers don't have to wait, someone calls them, and their problems are solved.

A couple of questions: 1) If you believe that market is irrational, is there a different company/stock that follows a similar pattern? 2) Is there anything Tesla-specific that might explain this, regardless of whether it is grounded in data or not, other than generic market irrationality?

I don't think people understand what "mathematically" actually means. Reducing prices by 1500% is mathematically possible but the odds of that happening are far lower than the Mariners winning the World Series. You don't have to talk to "experts" and if you do, your experts aren't very good at math.

If true, this is a big deal.

I'm still hung up on an uppercase 'R' in "Robot."

After 20 years, @gaberivera.bsky.social finally gets a headline at techmeme

I always feel that the Cowboys don't really want to win and every year they prove me right.

Now people can attach nonsensical posts written using AI to train AI. That will work out really well.

I can get behind this project

The treadmill screening of ‘THE LONG WALK’ took place, where every person had to walk on a treadmill faster than 3MPH for the whole movie.

If they stopped, they were escorted out of the theater.

Go buy a lotto ticket

I had one of these. Loved it!

No notes

Let's make sure that we take NBC out of our name and let's pretend that Microsoft never had anything to do with MSNBC either. Find a three letter word to add and throw in two red stripes in the logo.

No such thing as bad PR

I want to be an NBA player which means I know how to make a layup

I recollect people referring to cloud and SaaS as a winner-take-all industry. While some companies benefitted more than others, just like any other industry, the software industry as whole benefitted a lot. People are now saying that AI is also a winner-take-all proposition. I don't agree at all.

The Reason Baseball Players Chew Sunflower Seeds - The Takeout Baseball players chew sunflower seeds during games to help them focus and to keep their mouths moist in hot, dusty conditions.

TIL Reggie Jackson is the one who popularized baseball players chewing sunflower seeds. www.thetakeout.com/1932464/why-...

Neon Blue Flesh would make a great band name

Yankees announcers extensively discussed the struggles and physique of Rangers first baseman Joc Pederson.

Pederson hit the game tying homer that same at bat.

Identity-driven attacks are on a rise and AI makes it worse. Integrating identities also help improve overall security posture, regardless of an attack vector (AI or not).

Palo is on a mission to build a platform that integrates network, cloud, and now identity security. With the rise of AI, especially agentic AI, identity-driven security has become even more important. There is now renewed interest in IAM and PAM, a domain that has not seen much innovation.

Some of the best CISOs I know have no external presence and they don't want to be known for anything.

Sounds a lot like Ross from Friends

And will also make sure to tell you that after all it was such an obvious point and that you have no ingenuity.

No one is more networked and has a deal flow that Elad does. He has also been incredibly successful. Not surprised why investors want an in.

Me turning off various LinkedIn notifications

I had one more criteria: being able to view at an angle. They all publish these numbers. BTW ChatGPT is really good at doing this research - it did a lot of early filtering for me and answered a bunch of technical questions.

Yes. There are multiple types of OLED, basically how LEDs are organized. I would recommend going for a model or two below the most expensive model. All TVs got refreshed a couple of months ago so buy a 2024 model if you can find that. Good savings - no need to pay the markup.
