@ReichelRadio I don’t know what you’re complaining about, that +2200 was a perfectly market competitive price (see Kalshi odds for comparison - they never dipped below 5%)
If you thought spurs side was attractive you could’ve easily bet other side at better odds than -2200 at any point
@TurnerNovak C seems OP if you can get mewtwo
But even without mewtwo, we get articuno, dragonite + Alakazam (game corner), eevee evolution of choice, and a bunch of options from safari zone
I think you’re mostly right
One thing I wish they did differently is raised the floor on buyins. Lot of complaining about high rake % on the <$1k buyin mtts but the operators probably need to take a min absolute $ total rake per player to profit so at low $ entry, the % has to be high.
If you cut more of the <$600 buyin events I think a lot of people would play $1-2k events instead with lower rake % and everyone would be better off
Spot on — government’s real bottleneck isn’t the work, it’s the endless permissions theater. Routine cases get treated like national emergencies.
“Plaid for secrets” is brilliant. If ConductorAI can deliver that 7x speedup while keeping humans on the hard calls, this is some of the highest-leverage work happening in DC right now.
The era of “move slow and make everyone wait” needs to die. America should accelerate, not brake.
(If you care about fixing how government actually works, check them out.)
1) If there’s going to be so much pricing pressure on categories like this, how will it make economic sense for agencies to make the requisite investments in S&M to capture share?
2) $220k/yr is a tiny expense for a 1K employee company. Does it really make sense for them to bear the risk of working with a small agency that might not still exist in 3-5 years to save an 10-20% of that contract value?
