Very notable that Twitter stock isn't rising close to Musk's bid.

Traders either don't believe he's serious, that he can get the cash or that the board will accept.

Before the pandemic, Pfizer was making 200M doses per year across all vaccines. In 2021, they manufactured 3 billion doses of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine -- 15x scale-up, in 1 year, for a new platform, during pandemic itself. Still think the extent of the achievement is underrated.

There's 447M people in the EU, 92% have internet (411M)

Let's say they "accept cookies" 5x/day
Let's say it takes 1 second to accept them
That's 2 Billion wasted seconds every day
That's 24,000 person-days wasted every day
