@newstouse She only had 1300 hours. That's why she was in the co-pilot seat. She only takes over if the PIC has a heart attack. Lets talk about the PIC. How many hours did he have?

@ProudofusUK Hey @grok. The video says measure the sun at noon to find latitude. Didn't they mean measure the sun at sunrise/sunset since they didn't have a clock?

i bet the hack just forced a non random private key. this could happen even from the factory if a smart bad employee snuck it in.

Safe cold storage requires offline computer, using open source brain phrase to private key converter. download two different converters, test with same phrase to verify legit. Now just make a strong brain phrase. EG: press 10 random keys, then copy actually rolled dice. repeat 50 times. now you're safe.

other tips:
never let your laptop see the internet. not today not tomorrow. viruses are out there.

put your money in many small wallets. better to get hacked on a smaller amount...

@RealNickMugalli @RickSantelli Love you Rick! I worked from home for 3 decades with CNBC on 24/7 and called you and Joe Kernan my co workers. You are a legend. You will be missed. Thanks for seeing thru all the bullshit and entertaining us!

@GeniusGTX If these cars have a high ROI as a business, then demand will push the price up till that ROI became comparable to other biz ROIs... As they say on Wall St, theres no free lunch.

Thought it would be cool if I asked @grok to write a song thanking Elon Musk and I would put it into an ai music generator to create the song. Also asked @grok in @imagine agent to make visuals for this song. The basic idea is to thank @elonmusk for everything he has done for mankind. This is what @grok came up with...

@DrChrisCombs If a space data center can radiate heat in a vacuum, then maybe an active cooling system can radiate the heat on the back side of the ship. But I'm not an engineer. oh wait... yes I am...

@Kekius_Sage on the one hand you have hours or maybe just seconds to live... and on the other hand you will outlive your grandkids grandkids...

Socialists imagine a class struggle. In their made-up fantasy the CEO is in competition with low level workers, the wealthy entrepreneur is stealing from the underpaid nurse.

In reality, workers do not compete vertically they compete horizontally.

Entrepreneurs compete with entrepreneurs. Investors outbid each other. CEOs are benchmarked against other CEOs. Nurses are hired from a pool of nurses. Etc.

The CEOs pay has no correlation to the entry level workers. The Football star on £300K a week isn’t linked to the person selling drinks in the stadium. A biotech entrepreneur raising VC capital isn’t paid relative to a cleaner.

What is linked is the demand and supply dynamic of each role.

If a company places an ad for a qualified truck driver and 150 people apply for the role, then the company knows it does not need to increase wages for that role. If the company has an open role for months, it is forced to look at the compensation package.

Same for a CEO. A board representing shareholders would like to hire a CEO for a lot less if they could. Their dream scenario would be to hire a CEO who brings in institutional investors, attracts top executives, drives innovation and growth, keeps margins steady and is a good public face for the business even under pressure. It turns out there aren’t a lot of these people looking for work and if you want one you have to pay more than other companies are offering.

The class struggle isn’t vertical it’s horizontal. CEOs are in competition with CEOs. Retail workers are in competition with retail workers. Demand and supply dynamics set the price.

Sure you can say that a CEO want’s profitability and would like wages to be lower BUT it’s not up to the CEO - demand and supply tension sets the price of workers. An Airline like RyanAir would like free pilots if they could get them but they can’t… so they pay the market rate.

The reason incomes are rising at the top and falling at the bottom is not class warfare. It’s technology and globalisation.

Technology makes basic jobs simple, remote or fully automated. At the same time tech makes executive roles more leveraged, more important and more valuable.

A CEO used to run a smaller organisation. Today a CEO who’s 2% better on a $5B company is generating $100M more. Seems sensible to try and pay a few million to get $100M.

Globalisation has put workers from all over the world in completion with each other - downward pressure on wages. Globalisation has given CEOs more market opportunities to explore - upside opportunity to unlock.

The rich are not very interested in buying houses that poor people own. The poor are not buying up the homes the rich want. They are separate groups living separate lives. Try finding the genuinely rich people whose strategy is to hoard normal residential homes - it barely exists as a thing. About 85% of landlords are people who own 1-4 properties. Super-landlords (100+ properties) are 0.2% of landlords and own a tiny fraction of the 30M homes in the UK… and they’re heavily taxed.

Class warfare isn’t real. It’s an imagined war in the minds of socialists.

Demand and supply dynamics are real. To the degree it is measured in class, it’s a horizontal competition not a vertical one.

@Rainmaker1973 Cuba has free health care for all! Amazing. Michael Milken even made a movie about it!
How is that going now?
Problem with socialism is when you run out of other people money, people literally die from the anarchy.

[Allen @skipperAlHobbs]

You are spreading dangerous misinformation. In 1978 Americans made 100X what Chinese people did. After they open markets up to capitalism, that gap narrowed to 4x. Tax rates similar. The only thing communist about China is the name, and the dictator threat that thye might go back to communism.

@FoxNews Is it just me, or does a gifted air force one sound like a security concern.

[The Rabbit Hole @TheRabbitHole]

The problem with socialism is that it encourages dependency over self sufficiency
