"Multiplying Ford’s current market cap 94 times over wouldn’t quite get you to Nvidia’s. Yet 20 years ago, Ford was worth nearly triple what Nvidia was. Much like how Saudi Arabia is a petrostate, the U.S. is a burgeoning AI state—and, in particular, an Nvidia-state." tinyurl.com/3rr28fw6

If I played in the NFL, I would hire a PI to compile a dossier on all my opponents. I would be talking shit about their guilty pleasures, the time they didn’t quite make it to the bathroom, when their college roommate sexiled them. All of it. It’s the only good use for that much money.

Unfortunately, I have not stopped loving him

Love my local news, hate the news they report! "...in 2020, two officials told Reuters that it cost about $530 a day for each Guard member who was deployed... if that figure held today, it would cost more than $1 million dollars a day for 2,000 troops to patrol the city."

Actually I swore an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States with my hand on @bpl.boston.gov’s 1782 edition Aitken Bible—also known as the Bible of the Revolution.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.

Four days apart as the MD Conservation Advocate — I can gut a fish AND schmooze.

At MACO, where MEA’s Paul Pinksy is speaking truth to power following PJM’s Jason Stanek’s speech on where the blame on rising energy bills lies (hint: not in PJM’s queue): “You can say you’re fuel neutral, but if your policies support only fuel, then you cannot claim that.”

Some of the crimes I've seen in Washington DC: — Beige sweater with beige chinos — Jacket sleeve tag left on — Tan shoes with navy suits — Giant Windsor knots (triple felony with the metal sports watch paired with dark suit and French cuffs)
