I don't get this take. No matter how good you are at managing people, you cannot manage clowns into making wise decisions, especially if they are plotting in secret (which obviously was the case here since everyone except for the clowns were caught completely off-guard).

Didn't OpenAI close new ChatGPT Plus signups just 2 days ago? Strange coincidence in timing... Maybe the board just learned that costs were wildly over what Sam told them? I guess we'll find out...

Isn't rental income treated as income tax? It is in the U.S. Since tax is on the profit only, the tax would be on that 40%, so 32% of 40% so ~10%. You are still walking away with 68% of 40%, so 30% of your rental income is profit.

Source for this? All evidence show that their failure at least started with them owning a lot of "safe" bonds, whose value declined with increasing fed rates.

Exactly. They are very bitter at the thought of depositors (people who entrusted the U.S. banking system) getting bailed out.
