I’m ready for enphase to bounce back. Any day now.

I manage a service engineering team for semiconductor equipment.

I did this right out of college. I’m not sure if it was the LNAPL measurements or the asbestos abatements but I really needed to get out of that industry.

Yeah. I don’t think banks will give a shit as long as the properties are insured. The banks worry is probably shifted to making sure that the insurer has enough capital not to go under in the event of a single catastrophic event where the insurer goes bankrupt.

Can you elaborate what your point is?

Data is 6 months old but total profit at the time for TTM was $350B across all ten top oil companies.

Chatgpt high level summary:

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce received an $800,000 donation from billionaire Hank Meijer shortly after endorsing his son, Peter Meijer, in a 2022 primary. This donation and subsequent ad spending for Peter Meijer have highlighted the issue of “dark money” in U.S. elections, where the ultimate sources of funding are not disclosed. Although the Chamber followed legal requirements, the timing raised questions about the transparency and motivations behind such contributions. The article underscores the broader problem of undisclosed political donations and their impact on voter information and trust in the electoral process.

Sell stock? Why sell stock when you can just leverage that stock for cheap loans? Income without the hassle of those fussy taxes! Oh and those pesky interest payments? Tax deductible!

So the major thread they have to hang on is that these would normally be misdemeanors not Felonies. But the NY DA made them felonies due the timing of the election cycle back when this happened as it could have damaged Trumps campaign. IANAL.

NPR Politics Podcast did a good explanation of this appeal and forecasted this is the most likely appeal. That and the botched juror instructions.

I peaked over at reddits conservative… And this verdict has not only not dissuaded them… But has emboldened them. This “proves” we are in a Banana Republic and that the system is against trump

Also with taxes going to the government… There is a lot of corruption designed to bring those taxes back in the form subsidies, projects, funding etc. No guarantee taxes end up where they are needed.

Unfortunately this would require empathy. Not to mention it may lose value for shareholders.

Florida is the 9th largest cattle producing state.

I would walk from my suburban home to the R5 in Philly. Take septa to 30th street. Septa out to Trenton. NJ Transit from Septa to Penn Station. Walk through the tunnels get the train over to Hoboken. The whole trip was like $20 one way. It was awesome even if it took longer than Amtrak. Could get to my sister’s place with no car. It was pretty great!

Probably my favorite scene in any anime.

Turns out “better health care” is a pretty low bar in the US.
