Yes, they have a wealth of knowledge but they don’t realize that at that age they need to decide for the improvement of the next generation. But unfortunately people are selfish like that.

This whole Biden stepping down vs Trump saga is a metaphor for the American baby boomer generation’s approaches to their own reckoning of their old age and their reluctance to pass down the torch to another generation.
I hope it gets done so they can fund social programs. But the rich will flee to Germany
Nope. Diplomatic immunity results in “being asked to leave”. If they refuse they then become “persona non-grata” and only then they can be expelled. I think.
Some people see guilds as a form of worker union providing job protection but they are also oligopolies for business owners, resulting in higher price for goods and less employment opportunities overall due to the “you got to be a member so you can do business” aspect of it
Just writing to say that I admire your tenacity
this is true. but regulators still hold CROs accountable for that .
Tough situation for banks and people working inside them. For those clamoring that it is 2008 all over again, it is, because the way markets and companies work has not changed (and a bank is just another type of company).
Suppose you are a chief risk officer of one of those banks before Covid hit. You have been hired by the CEO so you need to play with the CEO to advance his/her agenda. Other banks are lending more and more to commercial real estate developers as there is demand and they are paying their loans on time. Your own bank’s board of directors and CEO are putting pressure to join the market and lend more to those property developers otherwise you own bank’s profit will look lower than the competition. You know that, by doing so, the concentration of loans in that sector will become quite high but, if you keep resisting, the CEO and/or the board will find someone more amenable who doesn’t seem to panic when every other bank is making money. Then you cave in. You decide to approve more business going to those loans although you caveat that this might exceed risk appetite and gets the board and CEO to formally approve it as well.
Now the bank is proudly going with the flow and investors are not complaining anymore.
Has always been, even without the graphics. The adversarial system makes it a competition with a scoreboard
The odds were 1:1
UK seems to have a comparatively large number of people dying during peace time within its borders due to foreign countries’ actions
Yes. I guess Mitt’s medication has changed or he recently took up on pot
Excellent point. And pardons are only given after the legal system concluded someone is guilty. Mitt is advocating for executive interference over judicial processes.
Amazing how Google doesn’t get product management right
The endowment management side does actually run like an investment bank, private equity, and asset management firm and is staffed by people who worked on those.
In this case, regulation is the only way to slow down something that is otherwise quite profitable, as the money is not “given” but those are.loans that are being repaid. But then regulation is not perfect since regulatory bodies are staffed by former bank executives.
And steam reviews prioritize reviews over the last 30 calendar days…
She is tought to be held at same standard but unfortunately there seems to be no institutional mechanism that reviews her performance and decisions…
Exactly. Too bad he had to perform so badly at the debate to get to this point (instead of graciously acknowledging it earlier and by himself) but his body language in the past few months indicated that he should become more of a consultant/advisor once his term ends
