I wonder if it's 50% larger or 12kb flat overhead.
The data from a single component 2 orders of magnitude smaller than typical isn't so useful.

I bet the majority of the users nowadays hadn't even been born back when we were enjoying our hot grits.
Index fund companies are sort of though.
If vanguard causes trouble for the executive of an s and p 500 using their holdings in 401k accounts, how long before that company switches to principal to manage its 401k?
There's a lot of money in index funds.
There's also the model of build a reputation and then extract any value your name had.
I see that a lot too (especially with clothing and shoe companies).
Nearly 50% of stocks are held in retirement plans. It's not that the shareholders only care for the next dividend. It's that the shareholders are passive (as you also pointed out), or are one level removed (in index funds).
The fund managers don't want to rock the boat with the companies because the companies get to pick who manages their retirement accounts, so essentially the retirement accounts are yes votes and not ownership oversight.
The US is the second largest manufacturer in the world please nching above its weight in manufacturing. It manufactures about 1/8 of the stuff with 1/20 the global population.
It's behind china in raw numbers, but above per person (by about 50%).
Not jist execution for corporations, also "jail" time.
A corporation commits a crime, it doesn't get a slap on the wrist fine. It becomes a ward of the state for x amount of years (government assigns a board, no dividends for the shareholders, shares are locked and cannot be traded).
Which is worse in Norway?
Note: I don't worship Norway, but I do see it as a place where positive lessons could be learned and integrated.
Probably to watch a person fight the terminator and the predator.
People like spectacle.
WWE isn't for me, but it's incredibly popular, and I could see this becoming so too.
No. Opened on fewer than 1,000 sceens.
It's more that people want their money now and it takes time to verify. So there's a touch of arbitrage to be had being a market maker when people want to cash out 30 minutes early.
It's not fraud, it's taking advantage of gambling addiction.
Note. I didn't read the article, but it's known ther s time based arbitrage between an event and the official resolving of it.
I don't see any need to protect people from their own stupidity more then necessary. Credit ratings do serve that process, but anyone buying a 5 year corporate bond paying 15% when a 10 year treasury only yields 5% surely understands why the price is so low (hence yield so high).
I like xfce with the two panel layout a lot.
Reminds me of gnome 2 more than mint or cinnamon, and gnome 2 just felt right to me.
Don't even need a ramp to fly either.
Overdesigned.
You can easily go airborne in an ICE car too. Poland had this tech in 2020.
