I missed that in the WSJ... very interesting. Thanks!
It's always interesting to see the results when a relatively primitive people go against our latest/greatest technology. Many times we don't really do all that well.
I guess that you missed the point of the OP. The "actual data" is suspect because of massive governmental layoffs. Some folks, knowing the cost of everything and the value of nothing, seem to think that you can get something of value without paying …
And, just to add frosting to the cake, here's this from The Guardian:
Meanwhile, Steve Bannon, a longtime Trump ally and Elon Musk critic, suggested there were grounds to deport the tech billionaire, who has US citizenship. Bannon told the New York …
Hi there Catch- yeah, this is really getting interesting. Here's a bit more from Musk: excerpts from a current report in the San Francisco Chronicle:
Elon Musk publicly signaled support for the impeachment of President Donald Trump on Thursday, dee…
This could really get interesting. Musk wants/needs more communications frequencies from Trump's FCC for his fleet of communications satellites; permission for more rocket flights from Trump's FAA, continuation of Tesla subsidies from Trump's budget…
Musk: "Spending bill is a disgusting abomination,” “Shame on those who voted for it".

Good plan. I vote they build a…
Does the Atlanta Fed have an opinion as well on the value of the government services that are being wantonly destroyed to offset tax breaks for the super-wealthy?
Some know the price of everything, and the value of nothing.
A couple of weeks ago in a different thread I mentioned a report that I had come across in The Wall Street Journal, which was very negative on the future of Europe's technology sectors in a comparison to the U.S.
Here's a free link to that report-
To me, the most interesting aspect is that the Ukranians were able to drive a bunch of large trucks with drones inside pretty much all over Russia without detection. If you recall, when Yevgeny Prigozhin, a Russian mercenary leader of the Wagner G…
I'm very familiar with PG&E's Helms pumped water installation here in California, and have always admired that installation, built in the 70s and 80s. I had never heard of gravity storage, a similar concept, until now. It certainly seems like it…
Since we're taking a hard look at the legal underpinnings of all of this, here's an opinion by Bloomberg's Matt Levine. Mr. Levine was a former investment banker at Goldman Sachs, an M&A attorney, and a clerk for the U.S. Court of Appeals for th…
Yes, for sure. Note that the appeals court has made no actual ruling on the merits of the US trade court, but has suspended that lower court ruling until the appeals court can actually hold a hearing on the matter. That has not even been scheduled, …
