i like writing by hand, and definitely generate better content / thoughts. I don't like going back through my writing and putting it in electronic form (an no writing on an electronic device (ipad/remarkable etc.) doesn't is not a substitute).
I don't think think I've ever had a job offer where this wasn't a topic of conversation. its further down the flow signing bonus, salary + bonus/equity/incentive are obviously the big ones, but I've always seen vacation, 401k+match, summary health care, relo package, etc care before accepting an offer admittedly its never been a obstacle and probably only moves the total comp needle a couple of percent. honestly its always been the easiest place for me to pick up money with little push back (extra week vacation, 5 years seniority at start for full 401k vesting/match etc.)
I think the bigger thing this making public transport a real alternative to driving - I most American metros using public transport isn’t faster, can be inconvenient (no parking, multiple transfers, etc), comfortable safe.
I guess I’m saying yes you can make driving less attractive, but I think the better answer is to make public transport more attractive.
two thoughts, the top three s&P 500 etf's have $2.7t in aum (and there are a lot of other etfs, mutual funds, and direct indexers on top of that) - so the dollars don't seem to be the problem.
I think its a little insane to have the seasoning rule for an index be inside the lockup period
As I recall they do - with many being delivered “green” to the integration upfittet but I think the 737’s for the p-8 is actually assembled separately just for the military
I wish apple/google would implement better notification control - like the ability to turn off all marketing notifications, and a much better digest format
Totally agree - but I guess I was getting at is that largest mfg. per the article is a a public company, and the number two is private equity, would we think that there would be a meaningfully different dynamic if they both were public?
yeah texas is definitely not pro-union - except that the only public sector unions that are allowed are for police and firemen... with Texas police unions contributing the the 3rd highest amount to politicians (behind CA and NY) - so its a real thing.
yup, i think a majority of people would agree with you, so why hasn't it happened? I think the answer is that elected representatives are more beholden to public sector unions than their constituents.
complete and utter incompetence by local elected officials. If one of the richest towns in America (average home price of >$2m) can do it - just imagine how bad it can be in "average" towns...
It’s such clickbait to purposely conflate the word headquarters with legal domicile / registered agent. I mean Garmin, Medtronic, Accenture, Aon etc are all non-us businesses but no one shows up in Switzerland looking for Garmin, they go to Kansas…
Maybe I’m unique but growing up part of my chores (or punishment) as a kid was weeding - weeding the vegetable garden, weeding flower beds, weeding the stone driveway etc. - we would have never used chemicals around the house or on things you’re going to eat - we were definitely not a super “environmentally conscious” household but that just seemed like common sense…
