Love Paprika for meal planning, saving recipes (and eating them), allows for easy modifications of recipe as well as web imports, and great interface for groceries. Definitely worth the price.

Agreed. I used Instaweb to clean it up and make it printable. Then I sent it to my Kindle because it was still 30 pages.

Would the costs and development be much lower and easier if the focus was augmenting humans strength in physical work? Would that still qualify as a robot company?

Why do you wish that you had bought the house despite accurately predicting and waiting for the downturn? Didn’t you get a significantly better deal or did it just get offset anyway? Curious because it’s a similar decision now. A recession is inevitable, will it happen in the next 3-6 months or take two years is hard to predict.

Burn I wonder if that’s really a problem because in 3 years, if GOogle Cloud becomes a billion dollar company then most wont question its financial importance to Alphabet.

Your board members are crypto enthusiasts so I would recommend getting somebody who is very knowledgeable in crypto to 1) assess if crypto is a good fit for the company 2) if yes, then how to go about executing it in a way that it's legal and profitable.

It's possible that you may be proven wrong or likey that you're right. Either way, it would be hard for a board of say no to such an idea and it would delay the execution of it to such time as when your investments can vest. If they still move forward by then and you're uncomfortable despite all this, you can leave as soon as your stocks have vested. Your goal today is to delay, secondary is to convince.

Maybe I’m understanding incorrectly: 13k in teacher salaries would be per course taught by a teacher right? Which really means cost should be 1/4th.

52k per student for a 5,000 student college is 260m per year of claimed expenditure. That is quite a lot money for a faculty of 700, even after subtracting boarding and scholarships, no? I do not know where money is going, although the Bain research does seem to support the evidence for concluding that admin is a benefactor of it.
