Render Farmer building big machines that make pretty pictures

@BeenThereCap It also explains why the handrails move faster than the steps

@BeenThereCap A fun explanation about how escalators work that uses this incident as an example: https://t.co/fMPJ6bG48E

@compound248 I wonder how many of the announced DCs actually end up getting built. Have you seen a statistical ratio of announcements to completions anywhere?

@BeenThereCap I remember sitting in the bleachers at shea for a mid-day game because I brought them an empty coke can in like 2001.

@BeenThereCap My first thought was energy costs instead of housing supply.

@yiningkarlli @pixarsrenderman I’m pretty psyched for the post where you tell us you’ve path traced your way into visualizing an answer to some question that’s confounded physicists for 130 years.

@BeenThereCap ✋

Does anybody else see “1 out of 14” really differently than 7%?

[Nick Maggiulli @dollarsanddata]

FYI if you remove retirement accounts and home equity, then only 1 in 14 households (~7%) have $1M in liquid net worth.

@peter_godman I kinda feel like democracy has been pretty darn good for capitalism over the past 248 years

@BeenThereCap Nowhere to go but up amirite?

[Kevin Constantine @kconstan]

@BeenThereCap How many positions do you generally have at any given time? If there are multiple companies within a group (say uranium) do you treat that as a single position as you think about the portfolio?

[Kevin Constantine @kconstan]

@BeenThereCap This seems to resonate the most with me.

Sachs' Covello estimates that a trillion dollars is being invested in propping up generative AI, yet it doesn't solve a one-trillion-dollar problem. It isn't making money, it costs too much, it doesn't create new jobs and doesn't make workers smarter.

@BeenThereCap What’s the good stuff and wheee is it available?

[Kevin Constantine @kconstan]

@BeenThereCap I guess that ties in with the loose concept of “name recognition” that I have in my head. It’s the network effect, it’s the thing that everyone is using because everyone is using it. It’s being taken seriously etc.

@yiningkarlli I was expecting Bad Religion’s “Los Angeles is Burning”

@BeenThereCap This seems an odd take. It sounded like the increased maintenance was due to an outsized amount of damage compared to the general ev population. I didn’t see where the early battery deaths were discussed but aren’t they warranties for a number of years and miles?

@compound248 @stoolpresidente Wonder how $DIS will have recorded its stake in $DKNG
