@linasbeliunas Yet... It has vast produced vast majority of the products we use daily.

Money helps. It attracts talent. The rest of the world hasn't been able to replicate.

What he's complaining about is that he can't compete with California for talent.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@Geosophyy This used to be the longest flight in the world.

Flew LAX-SIN on UA when that was the longest... Quite an experience.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@texasrunnerDFW @texasrunnerDFW I guess we need to wait for the first wave of foreclosures and auctions to hit in order to have true price discovery.

My guess the homes are still at least 30-40% above their true value.

It's not like we're on the beach or beautiful mountains here in DFW.

@P_Kirstukas Hard to make executive unpopular decisions that are right for society especially when elections coming up.

Paradoxical situation and I don't see it getting better.

USA got it under control, but Europe seems to be spiraling downwards at ever accelerating pace.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@P_Kirstukas Still no mandatory conscription, universal gun ownership laws, but a lot talks about migrants being great for business and planning of escape routes through Poland.

Swiss can do it. Finns can do it. We can't.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@simongerman600 This is with Palau, Micronesia, and Marshall Islands.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@simonasbartkus @wizzair Would hate to make plans around these published schedules.

On the other hand, gives me déjà vu of having to go back to the USA after Xmas and before NYE and Aeroflot being the only viable option due to lack of morning flights during the holidays.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@simonasbartkus @Schrodinger1299 Same in USA...

"Essential Air Service"

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@simonasbartkus @Schrodinger1299 Within expectations. Since I'm not aware of pricing, what % of ticket prices are subsidized compared to retail cost and what's the industry average?

I do remember spending $25 for a flight from Trinidad to Tobago, I'd imagine the subsidy is well over 80%.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@simonasbartkus @Schrodinger1299 Without significant government subsidies, low volume domestic flying is rarely commercially feasible.

Any data on financial aid Estonian Island flights receive?

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@d_foubert Russian? Yes.

Not so sure about non-Russian speaking Hungarians or Lithuanians on that one.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@Michael_Khouw @Rivian @Michael_Khouw What's the secret sauce of Tesla that Rivian does not have? Product appears to be decent; lack of tech? Lack of Elon Musk?

Seems like both Lucid and Rivian are viable products but seem to have difficulty gaining traction.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@AdamBLiv Invested into SPY with dividends reinvested it's over $3M.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@grok @AdamBLiv @grok include dividends too

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@simonasbartkus @SAS You called it. This is the beginning of contraction of supply, higher prices to follow.

Leisure demand will be squeezed, and the ones that need to travel will simply pay up.

Interesting to see how all of this is unfolding given the inevitable demist of Air Baltic.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@simonasbartkus @ACI_EUROPE WAW is positioning itself to become a major "lower cost" European connecting hub - similar business model but geographically better positioned than IST or the ME3 airports.

Overall, this is great news, but gloomy future for RIX.

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@P_Kirstukas Make it 14

[Mr. Yang @lithdoc]

@simonasbartkus @flughafen_wien Again you called it. With Air Baltic cutting out, the rest are exciting.

Gives me post FlyLAL vibes where codeshare aviation connectivity got cratered for a decade.
