When Bally sports goes bankrupt you can bet on Amazon to take over the regional sports networks it owns. Amazon will lose money in the short term but they are playing a long game here.

Most tech companies are run by left-leaning executives. They have been holding off on layoffs so as to not damage the Democrats before the midterm elections. Now that the elections are over expect a ton of layoff notices to come out.

If there are 100 people in the neighborhood with 10 Gb connections would they provision a 1 TB Internet uplink for them? Or is just gong to be bandwidth sharing one step up from the last mile?

Didn't take long for somebody to build a strawman.

An average car emits 4.6 metric tons At $600/ton that means we are spending $2760 per car each year for this. The number of cars on the road during the pandemic decreased by millions If more companies made work from home available then we wouldn't need these plants at all.

So what does Joe Biden do? He leans on companies to force people to return to the office.
