Because a sale for cash is a basic legal contract that predates modern society by millenia, whereas a LBO that PE uses to purchase companies is a weak spot in American Capitalism c…

It is not analogous because if you sell your house and the sale money is not enough to cover your mortgage you are still on the hook for what's left of the principal. A leveraged b…

Hey, maybe the new feature has 100% lift and so their N is 32

You should interview for the skill that is required in the age of AI-assisted coding. That is, looking at code that's been written by AI and see what's wrong, what's superfluous an…
