Google also has had 2 consecutive negative FCF quarters. It is clear that the management do not have a handle over this transition. The expenditure has no reason to stop, and their earnings are not going to balloon thrice over the next 4 quarters.

Let alone the debt. It has tripled over the year, and at this pace, servicing debt will become a huge cost.

There is one caveat; Federal law enforcement routinely infiltrate groups that are mostly violent bluster, and creates agitation. This is entrapment, and is considered legal. However, it is very hard to ascertain which are really dangerous.

Well the Super Mega Ultra Pro Max federal police force that was supposed to enforce immigration laws is spying on American citizens. And charging them taxes to do so.

If you support this, you are supporting fascism.

That is not true. Semiconductor industry saw a similar supply crunch during covid and spent heavily for capacity. And when the crunch tapered off, they were left holding the bag.

Micron would probably not even exist, or be a sticker brand for some Chinese conglomerate if not for this supply shock.

They are a lot more reticent this time around.

I have reason to believe that this is not emergent behavior. This is part of the prompts for the agents.

Most of the crowd here is pretty familiar.

Some might say their job is optimizing ways to make numbers appear better without substantial change in input or output.

I guess we know why OpenAI and Claude went down at the same time.

Cancers being distinct living beings by itself is controversial, but you unnecessarily anthropomorphizing.

The truth is much more mundane. It's just Goodhart's Law.
