    This is incorrect. Adjusted for corporate actions (splits/dividends) it's more like 2010 levels. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/INTC/ (click "ALL")

    Also James Murdoch (son of Rupert) is on the Tesla Board of Directors. WSJ is playing it down the middle, like they always do.

    This isn't even an either/or proposition. You can inline SQL in pyspark just fine: df = spark.sql("...")

    His tweets about China show he knows how to grovel when money's at stake.

    Hey man, I didn't design the page. That's the tightest filter I could get. Here's an example: https://finra.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/FINRA/jobs/details...

    My wife is a lawyer. The biggest issue is that they have proprietary document management systems for security. G-suite is just as big a risk as O365.
