These seem like theories, not laws. And imho, some of it is very wrong, such as:

> Purposefully adding a delay to a process can actually increase its perceived value and instill a sense of trust, even when the process itself actually takes much less time.

5% based on fictional evaluation, but $150 of the last $300 mil raised. Certainly enough to influence marketing and positioning.

It's owned by a Chinese company from what I understand. I don't think they have a particular bone with Aaron, but generally just believe in deleting inconvenient controversies.

What is it? Seams like it's an implementation of ecc,but does what? A p2p chat? ::Shrugs:: I'm not sure the failure to adopt your one elusive product speaks for the entire pop.

Yeah, it's called the 'embrace' phase.

When Elon said he thought Twitter should be more like WeChat, I thought he meant payment features and the like, but nope, just censorship of things he doesn't like and boosting things he does.

Well....it is certainly more like WeChat now. Mission accomplished!

Teaching conversational English online can easily earn $15-25/hr, especially if you have an American accent. The hours might be weird but once you have some students, they become consistent.

Wrong conclusion.

The problem here they are charging $2,000 for a $200 panel.

I do not believe it adds much more to the manufacturing as the raw cost + sunk cost of automated design.

Also, I live in Vegas and am usually parked in direct sun, almost all of his arguments are completely mute in most of south west US, and Australia. Yeah, totally agreed it's a stupid option in high density foggy London. Author needs to travel a bit, IMHO

dang, that's a big gap. It makes meta's losses seem much more palatable.

Idk, I thought it was mentioned in almost every article that discusses the pros and cons of remote work.

Not all jobs can be remote though, so i'm not sure why one would expect all of work to be remote. That makes as much sense as 'no remote work at all'.

yup. imho, the high salaries we receive is a combination of both talent and willingness to do this rather unsatisfying work for long periods of time.

If this paid as much as say, brick layer, I would rather have been the brick layer.

Your analysis has some merit, but I still wouldn't agree overall.

First, he can't sell any of that 5.7%. Collateral is an all or nothing deal, like any other loan. Technically who ever collects it may not sell it either, they may hold onto it rather than dump it, but it is entirely their decision.

Second, he owns about 21% of TSLA (so the web tells me). And Twitter lost 1.14B in 2020. That is likely to be a steeper loss this year. Selling 1+B / year - with very little end in sight to the pain - will eat into his remaining 15% share. Liquidating 1+ B a year of stock is not a trivial amount and it will not be looked on favorably by investors. It will signal his pet project is more important than his very serious business - a business where investors have been all to happy to short in the past.

IDK, just my opinion. Not financial advice, obviously.
