Money.

Now that USB-C is the required cable, people can go out and buy any cheap cable they want. The law turned a proprietary cash cow into a low return commodity item.

Don’t need to, just down-blend from the available fuel used from weapons put out of commission as a result of disarmament treaties.

Now, about those materials used to construct solar panels…

Raw material is usually a small fraction of the cost of refueling. I would also argue that the Russian-Ukrainian conflict is a small blip in the lifetime of a reactor, ~80 years. Transient pricing will have a negligible effect on the LCOE.

This is false. Nuclear has a very competitive levelized cost of energy (LCOE). Nuclear has high upfront costs but fuel is cheap and the reactor can last much longer than solar panels. The big picture matters not just upfront costs.

Introducing the new Aston Martin Team Principal!

Stroll’s gap to his teammate is as large as most of the rookies on the grid to their respective teammates. But yea, his dad owns the team…what can be done. Money is privilege.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say Netflix and other platforms probably picked up these shows/movies because they were cheap and wouldn’t need to pay out residuals if they became hits.

Kinda sucks they don’t get paid but honestly no one makes it out big on their first run. You use your new leverage to negotiate better the second time around, after you’re proven your worth.

A few exceptions to this, but more than likely the streaming platforms would have never picked up these shows were it not for the very beneficial terms.

Perez qualifying 9th in a RB on a track that is difficult to pass on. That RB should be on the podium every race.

When we couldn’t share a family password anymore we just didn’t sign up for our own account. Easy as that. Been watching a ton more Hulu as a result. Netflix isn’t worth more than a one-month sub/year.

This is going to have an interesting effect on the labor market. With people being ‘locked-in’ it will ultimately reduce worker mobility. Combine with the emphasis on ‘back to the office’, this will reduce the labor pool available to employers.

The good news is that new build costs are coming down and builders are starting to ramp up again.
