@FT Trump is a great businessman, but it is clear he is NOT A MATURE POLITICIAN. Otherwise, why do all USA allies hate Trump? He wants to get rid of NATO and do the presidency with a business mindset. BUT NO, IT WOULD NOT WORK WELL! Ruling a country is fundamentally different.
@FT USA is still the strongest country on this planet, politically, economically, and culturally. US dollar still has a prominent status. A more accurate conclusion is that the US is no longer significantly ahead of other countries. GET RID OF TRUMP IS MORE IMPORTANT!
@FT No country collapses over time. It took three years from 1988 for the USSR to dissolve, and decades of accumulation of factors. If someone says the US is about to lose world number one and collapse, or China is about to attack Taiwan and collapse, he is lacking knowledge.
@clashreport It's time for European to put AC in ALL PUBLIC SPACES NOW. They also need to change their mindset. 40+ degree summer will be routine in the future. I don't understand why they can not change the law or mindset. It is simple: NO AC IN SUMMER MEANS DEATH. Wake up, Europe!
@DearS_o_n The truth is, NO ONE CARES WHAT YOU DO. They only care IF YOU HAVE MONEY. They don't even care how you make it. A job? Business? Stock investment? Bitcoin? No, they don't. They don't even need to know you much. One pays, another delivers, and that's it.
@DearS_o_n Elon Musk is crazy, and I am not 100% like him. But I can see that some of his daydreams worked. Tesla, a recyclable rocket, his Starship, the Mars dream, and the SpaceX IPO, which many people say is a scam to drain money, are built on an unrealized plan. He doesn't care.
@DearS_o_n It's between. You can try to finish a 10-year project in 6 months, but you likely can't. But you can finish more than your old 6-month plan. Always aim for more, including making big money. That is the infamous Parkinson's law. Things always expand to the time allotted to do.
@bryan_johnson Germany lost the World Cup because there were too many non-white players! IMMIGRATION IS A SCAM; all the countries in Europe will pay for it: REPLACEMENT OF PEOPLE! Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the USA are now in GREAT DANGER! In the 2030s-2050s, the clash will be brutal!
@compressmyneck@DonaldTrumpNat First off, I haven’t jumped to an extreme case—this stacked set of risks is the baseline market has completely ignored, not some doomsday scenario.
Second, a fast jump in trailing 12-month revenue doesn’t erase stretched forward multiples, that’s the core misunderstanding here.
@compressmyneck@DonaldTrumpNat Second, viable long-term workarounds are limited by coordinated global antitrust rules. Multiple jurisdictions have enacted nearly identical requirements to open third-party payments and app distribution, and Apple’s past attempts to implement alternative fees have been fined.
@compressmyneck@DonaldTrumpNat First, revenue percentage does not reflect profitability contribution. App Store revenue carries an extremely high gross margin near 75%, so its impact on total operating profit is significantly larger than 5% of top-line revenue suggests.
