@Sherman1890@HoffProf Three articles (by Noll, Kirkwood, and Salop) from the Antitrust Law Journal symposium on buyer power (starting at 72 Antitrust L.J. 505) are cited in Weyerhaeuser.
This isn't the first time we've seen @POTUS use "Palestinian" as a slur while passing judgement on @SenSchumer's Jewish identity.
Instead of weaponizing people's identity, the President should use the power of the bully pulpit to bring Americans together in moments of tragedy.
Our 2025 #antitrust casebook update is out! THREE new public draft chapters cover Robinson-Patman, digital markets, & healthcare. Thanks to guest coauthors Profs Steuer, Leibenluft, & Ross; @abaantitrust for support; and many kind folks for feedback. https://t.co/lrLZHIt134
1) Excited to announce that @BatteryVentures is leading the Series A for AssistIQ, and I'm proud to join the board to support their vision.
AssistIQ is transforming surgical supply + implant management in hospitals using AI + computer vision.
Niantic was the first company I ever presented at our investment team all-hands (back in 2015!)
A huge congratulations to the entire @NianticLabs team on the $3.85B sale of its gaming business to Scopely.
We discussed the very early vision for Niantic Spatial in my first conversation with @johnhanke way back then and Battery is thrilled to be part of the journey ahead.
Explore on!
@PGunigantiAT@Sherman1890 A refusal to deal is a monopolization theory, which requires foreclosure of a competitor. Refusing to deal with a customer who doesn't want to use the input to compete with the supplier doesn't work regardless of the "power" of the manufacturer.
@CJSprigman Ask it to come up with a coherent rule for fair use when using copyrighted materials to train AIs. Maybe that’s like telling the computer in War Games to play tic-tac-toe against itself.
@CJSprigman They are a very insufferable sort. But not as insufferable as the people who put "MBA" in their signature line (as in "N. Insufferable Dickwad, MBA").
@CJSprigman @DSFrancis1 The ABA Antitrust Law Section did many terrific things during my year as Chair of the Section, but I think Chris and Daniel's work will have the greatest long-term impact. Their openly licensed casebook is an invaluable gift to generations of antitrust lawyers to come.
@PGunigantiAT If they're buying less than $119.5 million in homes from a single seller, it's not subject to HSR anyway. I think PE firms buy homes one at a time from individual sellers, so HSR will never catch those regardless of the exemption.
1) Very excited to announce that Battery is leading the Series A for @PSciAI + I'm joining the board.
It's a perfect example of what we're looking for in vertical AI companies.
