That kind of "power" can turn on a dime. I'd be wary of it. In this case the mob learned they have influence when they work together. That doesn't mean they are loyal to Altman, ra…

What is the case against them? You can't claw back without demonstrating some law was broken. Making a bad financial decision that causes a business to fail isn't against the law u…

The question is, what would it take for a bank to be allowed to fail? The FDIC insurance line of $250k must've meant something .

Yes, now I wonder if anyone is allowed to fail. David Sacks complained that if the regionals aren't protected, then everyone will only bank with the big four. Yet if everyone is pr…

The run they were tweeting about was a wider one on all regional banks. Did not happen at time of their tweets, they were speculating about the future. Why was it the VCs impacted …

I like your honest answers here. It's refreshing to hear in the tech space after a decade of wanna-be Jobs copycats. Good luck with the business.

China's exit, as happened 70-80 years ago, would cause us to have to work more. That might not be such a bad thing, though I doubt it will happen to the same degree. It's still fre…

Many people self-describe as pro-life. It is not 'flamebait' for most people and neither is pro-choice.

Pro-lifers can be pro-sex ed and pro-contraceptive. It would be your misunderstanding if you assume those must all go together.

Okay. The topic was birth, not sex ed / contraceptives.

That's one way of looking at it. But pro-lifers don't see it that way, so I was just presenting another point of view. I don't think telling them to stfu is productive.
