@squirtlevc @ByrneHobart It’s a joke about how car accidents will decline so precipitously that other professions will be at risk bc Waymo is safer

@StephNoh @Glen5r40 And presumably it works the same way for owners? They pay into an escrow. If bri ends up higher than expected is it divvied out proportionally to the player contracts or split evenly? Or some other methodology?

[dan @dew89]

@StephNoh @Glen5r40 I’ve always been a little confused by this. Like are the actual contracts not honored or clawed back in some way if revenue is lower than the total committed salary?

@rennyzucker @HarryBittker @FettyBert @ButlerBets If you’re making more than 5 bets a day, you might have a problem. (If you were winning consistently they would ban you)

@lymanstoneky The 30 year fixed rate mortgage would not exist without heavy government subsidization (and it does not exist largely outside the us) the 50 year version requires even heavier subsidies. If it only trivially serves buyers then it’s not a good use of taxpayer subsidy

@LeahLibresco @jeffspross Since you’ve doubled down on this, I suggest looking into remedial math lessons bc your error here is pretty wild

[dan @dew89]

@LeahLibresco @KelseyTuoc @TheArgumentMag I’m confused by your math here. I think you’re off by 2 orders of magnitude. ~750 would be the number of women with abruptions.

@NYCSanitation They built the Empire State Building in a year, so it makes sense it would take about that long to get some dumpsters

@BresciaEric @aarmlovi Iowa has a nonpartisan commission and has reasonably fair districts. Probably other states as well

@GoodGuyGuaranty Isn’t crime dropping dramatically nationwide? What specifically is Tisch doing that merits credit here?

[dan @dew89]

@upzonenj Tisch is busy criminalizing biking in the city. Not sure what makes her a good other than that she’s riding a nationwide trend of falling crime and getting credit for it

[dan @dew89]

@CharlesFLehman Sure but Cuomo gives massively nimby quotes and policies and he’s the only alternative in the primary, so what would you do?

[dan @dew89]

@carney @TheStalwart The key difference is that roads are typically unpriced and housing is not. But there are countervailing effects of more housing (amenity effect whereby a denser area can be more desirable vs supply effect absorbing more demand). Empirically the supply effect dominates

@benhayesnyc @GritGrowthCap Not margin. It’s non recourse, so no margin calls if the collateral drops

@patio11 I’m just a humble reply guy, but I could have saved your friend a trip to Brooklyn. the FOIL work was still necessary though (to the extent a thorough fact check was necessary)

[dan @dew89]

@binarybits @AgustinLebron3 @patio11 Yeah I’m perplexed as well. There’s a Bank of America in downtown Brooklyn that fits this description well (the space with tellers is upstairs and someone at the front sends you there when you arrive) it isn’t a high value deposit room.

@patio11 @elbasti Interesting. From the insurers perspective it would be hard to avoid someone buying a large cancellation insurance policy and then acting in a way to maximize possibility of being cancelled, while still covering your use case?

@dustinbpalmer Going to give you something other than what you asked for, children’s book recommendations that you won’t mind reading over and over (bc that’s all I read this year)

1. Ferdinand. A classic pacifist story
2. Milo imagines the world
3. Beautiful oops
4 where the wild things are

[dan @dew89]

@dustinbpalmer You must have been thinking of me when you wrote this, but the title is actually My Brilliant Friend

[dan @dew89]

@OsseChi Thank you. Honestly I think people are conflating mopeds and motorcycles which are already supposed to be licensed with e-bikes. And none of it matters bc it’s arbitrarily enforced.
