NICU is a hell of a thing. I'd bet they had some complications
Should have used those little boot straps.

Double, I need this bitch to go to $32 to break even lmao
I don’t know about 32 but it’s closing in on 9 right now. It looks like it may run a little.

40% of IBRX’s float is sold short. We’re going to a nice squeeze. The question is when. IBRX +2.12 to $7.24.
7.56 . This is going to be fun to watch.

It has to be incredibly frustrating for@Harrison Stafford et al to be right but get so little for your insight. UUUU, RVPH and now IBRX. It damn sure goes against you when you’re wrong.
I’m buying more so jokes on me.

I honestly don’t think so. There’s so much hope baked into Tesla stock price that if you get rid of its weirdo boss the house of cards collapses. I would not want to be long, and I buy stonks. They are in a weird spot right now and best case is they go horizontal for a period while they sort out their strategy. Personally I think the cyber truck was a huge misstep and should be shit canned in favor of the smaller lower priced vehicle they’ve been promising, but that is turning an aircraft carrier.

Up until like 2022 it wasn't considered unethical for a Democrat to buy a Tesla. In fact they probably proudly did so until Elon went publicly off the reservation. Now, I wonder which brand/car will fill the Tesla void for those who despise Elon Musk and all he stands for.
Who talks like this? Fucking weirdo.

Hey boys let’s party. I am not as deep as HS (that’s what she said!). But this could be a nice ride.

That 56 billion dollar payday will come in handy.

The best part will be the taxpayer bailing him out.
We’ll just roll out hardcore tax credits for hardcore vehicles. That’s the ticket!
The house of cards was always going to collapse. There are some good things that will come out of the wreckage but it’s going to be a hard landing.

Don’t tell Rex, economy is BOOMING. NO STRANGENESS IN SIGHT
All joking aside this is going to be pretty horrible. Tesla is the largest private employer in Austin now, just recently passing HEB.

One of the ugliest and most boring drives in the country. Nothing compared to my biweekly Waco to Brownsville drive.
Basically follows Sideways. Just stay away from dudes chasing your car with their junk hanging out.

So, are your clients "little guys" or moneyed interests of the type who in the past supported tort reform?
Yes? Generally I would say the latter, although that’s a function of my work, which is obtaining new permits rather than working to prevent them from being issued. But usually, the little people are bystanders while cities and counties are the main opposition to my clients.

Speaking of inflation. I need to increase my rates. By a lot. I saw what the attorneys are charging my clients. And I’m tired of giving my expertise away. I’m thinking 500 an hour might be too much but 400 seems reasonable.

Except that’s literally untrue. I work with a group that just pulled data on that exact point for a presentation to professionals. We actually had a hypothesis that the number of disputes going to court had increased. We were wrong. Over the past several years, the number of suits filed has declined. The number of cases going trial has declined. The percentage of cases that settle at mediation has held steady.
We had our crusade against “lawsuit abuse!” 20 years ago. It didn’t do shit except increase the profits of insurance companies, and fuck over people who had actually meritorious claims. Sure, let’s have another crusade against people’s right to hold other people accountable. Fuck it, we’ve pretty much decided to ditch the rule of law anyway, might as well finish the job. All disputes settled by violence now, let’s get it done.I must have touched you where the bad man did. I can tell you that in my field, permits from the state of Texas, there has been a sharp increase in contested case hearings, so much so that SOAH is backed up like a bad toilet.
My point remains with my narrow focus. I am personally doing more legal adjacent expert work than I ever have before. And I only do it for clients I am already working for- I am not an expert for hire.

I’m reading that services inflation came in hot. That is not good, but is not surprising given the ridiculous increases in insurance rates.
And by the way, we need to get the lawyers under control. The lawsuits are getting out of control. People suck and will sue for anything and everything.
This last is no lie. I spend over half my time being an expert in either litigation or administrative law cases. Everyone is suing and lawyering up, in every jurisdiction too. Not just big cities. Out in BFE too.

Cool, so you're uber rich. I'll keep that in mind if I never need a loan from a stranger.
Definitely not. I mean, if my stonk bets pan out, I’ll be living large!
I meant I can fly Alaska from MRY direct and have a reason to visit. I’m still working for a living. Trying to completely retire someday soon but talking to the friends who’ve done it every one of them has gone back to part time consulting.
The place I’ve stayed a couple of times right by the campus was Estancia and it was pretty cool. If I could afford La Jolla we probably would have moved there instead of the central coast.

Bluebeam is probably best for non cad users. It’s very easy to set scales, measure, and draw to scale. Obviously if you can use AutoCad or Micro Station but you wouldn’t be asking if you can use those.

I will be looking for recommendations soon. Son starting UCSD in September and there’s a direct flight from Monterey to SD, so I’ll be there frequently.
I’m looking forward to my next four years in La Jolla.

Here is a recent re-discovery that I’ve been enjoying: Purcell’s Music for theatre

Here’s a worst-case scenario for investors, according to economists at Bank of America: “Job growth of 250k+, stronger-than-expected wage growth, and a fall in the unemployment rate would likely further price out the chance of a June cut,” they wrote in a research note this week.
Your idea of worst case is weird. Continued growth and no rate cut is probably 1a from best, but that’s ridiculously narrow view of the market. I would say contraction would be significantly worse all around.

You said reenter, huh huh.

Elon Musk: Officially a fraud and piece of shit. Official or unofficial war criminal?

I think things are much worse than they seem, or none of these moves make sense. Whether it’s slowing demand, or realization that the competition is catching up and passing on the automotive and self driving front, the last few days indicate a real panic. I think he also cut his lobbying staff? I would be really careful about being long right now.
