Was listening to ⁦@Jason⁩ rant about all you can eat movies on ⁦@twistartups⁩ and realized that they have something close to this already at ⁦@AMCTheatres⁩. How is this different than what you proposed?

If @vegas is wondering why tourism is down. Maybe it’s the bad odds like 6:5 blackjack, hidden fees at vending machines and restaurants and bad customer service at hotels like @TheLINQ - visited for the first time in years. Don’t intend to return anytime soon.

“Don’t take it out on your server by lowering the tip; take it up with a manager.”

No, that’s too much effort. I just adjusted the tip accordingly. If ⁦@ChayoLV⁩ wants to waive the $5 CNF they can make the servers whole themselves.

Should the KPIs for AI be based on automation or augmentation?

This is an excellent article with insights from a behavioral economist about how best to develop and deploy AI for the workplace.

Is the use of surcharges a good or bad pricing strategy? Politics aside does the average customer appreciate the transparency or are they annoyed by unexpected costs at checkout?

If it wasn’t for the wash sale rule how many people would be selling stocks for tax loss harvesting and immediately rebuying at a lower cost basis?

@seanfrank If I was a retailer of Rolex watches then going into debt to buy inventory would be a reasonable circumstance.

@elonmusk Largest increase is in interest expense. Function of increasing interest rates when we have substantial debt.

@mbertulli The quotas have been paused for at least 30 days. @mbertulli Will you be making any changes to your GTM strategy or will you maintain the status quo until there is more certainty?

[Paul Mobley @paulmobley]

Are we better off if there are long-term alternatives? I’m not saying the tariffs are good or bad but economics teach us that it doesn’t automatically increase consumer prices. That assumes we maintain the status quo. However, the price elasticity of demand and the availability of substitutes - short or long term - are complicating factors to consider. Also, substitutes are not always like for like (Canadian Whisky or Kentucky Bourbon) but could lead to preference changes (Chicken instead of Beef).

@BruceBartlett The Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act was passed in 1930, during the Great Depression.

Cool to see the Tustin Blimp hangar in another Hollywood production. Check it out on the new show #ParadiseHulu

Most people do have income that can be taxed and the only way to avoid it is to decrease earnings. Imports from a country can lead to substitution and customers may not be impacted. Domestic sources gain a competitive advantage as do non-tariff countries with higher demand. Most economic activity - including owning real estate - generates revenue for the government. At least with tariffs there can be alternatives (or the incentive to create them).
