I live in super liberal Illinois, which recently ended cash bail. It was a rough transition period but now it is fully implemented and every judge and prosecutor knows how everything works. Cook County Jail (Chicago and close-in suburbs) p

FedEx'ing baggage between home and a distant hotel is awesome. I haven't done it recently, so maybe with airline fees it is always cheaper. It used to be that you had to have a corporate account with enough discounts to make it

A Model T cost $900 in 1910 and $260 in 1925. Ford was constantly pushing the price down.

This is an interesting ruling. Note that the lawsuit has nothing to do with using models, only creating them. It is entirely possible for Anthropic to win, but still lose (somewhere else). Other interesting things. On pages 8 and 9, the

Do you have roof access? It's not going to be terribly windy in Boston... There are places that sell/rent temporary roof coverings, mainly for protecting from storm damage until it can get fixed. But anyway, white/reflectiv

Hertz used to be the best by a wide margin, but now it's a totally different company using the name and logo.

Perhaps you should evaluate in terms of the price premium for speed. Sometimes you buy milk at the 7-eleven instead of the grocery store. It costs more, but is worth it for the convenience in the situation you are currently in. Most of t

Nobody is going to pay to use such a canal except during extraordinary geopolitical events. Plus, it doesn’t help with the current situation.

Cars are definitely the major mode. Lots of quick flights, too. They’ve made a lot of investments since the 1990s. It’s much improved, though perhaps not as nice as during the golden years when it was a big part of the New York Central sy

Cash buyers. There are already a lot of places in the US where you can’t get a mortgage. In high rise condos, especially, a lender will want to look at the financial situation of the association. Make sure it is holding enough reserves, e

Are you saying Fama didn’t come up with the efficient market hypothesis? He got the Nobel prize for it. Who came up with it?

Straight from the mouth of Fama: “efficient Market Hypothesis is a model. All models are wrong. Some models are useful.” If you don’t/won’t understand the difference between the real world and a model of the real world, there is noth

Semi-related. For the Club World Cup match tomorrow in Miami, they’ve started offering local university students a deal: buy one ticket for $20, get four free tickets for your mates. There’s just no demand.

The Caterpillar Museum [1] in Peoria, IL has a few VR-ish cockpit mockups that you can try out. I’m fairly certain at least one of them is an excavator. PS, it shares a parking garage with an art/science museum [2] that is pretty nice

The Caterpillar model might work better for the Navy. Not a huge number of ships, used year-round. I’m not condoning Deere, BTW. Just pointing out that there are tens of thousands (maybe hundreds of thousands?) of farms that get very busy

Deere has a massive service network that makes it extremely rare for a farmer to get stranded during planting or harvesting. To keep this network around year after year, they lock people into using it and charge a lot of money. The Navy sh
