What rail? The one into Inglewood? Super helpful for everyone involved. I'm not arguing the measurement of 1 mile versus 1.5 miles with you. You are nitpicking to confuse the argument and it doesn't change the point in the least.

No, it's not. Nothing you wrote contradicted anything I said. The ultimate passenger destinations are less than 1 mile from the airport. They do not include connections to ongoing transportation other than cars, buses, and taxis. It co

Every other city in the country has figured out rail transportation. The FAA could have been pacified if there was any political will to find a real solution. Blaming the FAA because they rejected one design is pure bs. GM most definitely r

I'll continue to blame the minority interests that are doing everything possible to keep LA transportation stuck in the stone ages, thank you.

Also a frequent flier. It sucked before but the solution was 100% designed to benefit cab drivers. Moreover, it absolutely fucked up the entrance to the airport which went from long, but doable, to dozens of people missing their flights per

@tom No, it's not being built. The train that is currently under construction will connect the airport terminals to a cab stand and car rental station less than a mile from the airport because LA taxi drivers threw a shit fit when they

Maybe, but this law will prevent Uber from ever turning a profit in CA, so it's far easier to just shutdown operations, and move their headquarters. I live here, pay taxes here, and vote here. I am actively rooting against the state ri

The Los Angeles taxi union prevented (read: bribed and coerced) the state / city government from installing a train from LAX to DTLA because they were rolling in cash. Then, they got pissed about Uber, and had a rule enacted that force

It is illegal to provide investment advice and sell investment products without license for a reason. This young man is exactly that reason. People are stupid and they trust other stupid people.

I love options trading, but I used to work for an options exchange. I don't write uncovered positions because I can't afford the tail risk. /r/wsb, on the other hand, loves tail risk, long or short. That subreddit needs

I was confused by this as well. Java is my go to language when I'm trying to do things the right way. Results in clear code, easy implementation, and good performance 95% of the time.

Adding in a little more nuance. Free cash flow to equity is discounted at the cost of equity. The cost of equity increases as future cash flows become riskier. However, costs of financial distress tend not to get baked into valuations unles

Agreed, but this study can certainly be used as part of a larger triangulation. A guy I worked with pointed out that this was happening in Japan about a month ago: https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2020/02/21&

Yeah, you're right. I didn't think any sane person that's eligible for an SBA loan would be complaining about a 4% interest rate. Private unsecured small business loans run like 20%.

Don't trust Chinese statistics. They are manipulated to say whatever the government wants them to say. This is the same country that starting running empty production facilities so economists couldn't predict GDP impacts.
