quite a take from someone who called COVID restrictions "fascism" and "a violation of constitutional rights," and argued that SEC penalties for announcing a fake leveraged buyout of Tesla trampled on his first amendment free speech protections

The remarks from the tech leaders come as city officials tout falling crime rates even as overdose deaths continue to climb.

There is an easily reproducible bug in the HP LaserJet P2035/2055dn driver on Mac OS that results in a fatal PostScript error (requiring printer reboot) if you print >1 copy of a double-sided document. It's been there for a decade at least. I wish someone would fix this bug.

Also they were going to arrest Elon if Kamala won. So.

Well, if they could find Parulekar wherever he is in India or who knows by now, they would probably arrest him.

Martin Shkreli concludes that Tesla is not a "fraud" because nobody's ever been arrested for fraud there...

Martin Shkreli post on X (twitter): "This week I learned that there is a community called 'TSLAQ' who thinks Tesla is a fraud [three laughing crying emoji faces]. They are a bunch of failed Wall Streeters who obviously lost their mind. As a life-long short-seller, I will explain this phenomenon through psychiatry! (1/3)" The tweet shows a Tesla revenue since inception bar graph.

Martin Shkreli tweets about Tesla (TSLA) stock. 1. "i'm not saying it's not a short. i'm saying you need professional help if you think the company is a 'fraud'" 2. "fraud is whatever gets you arrested for fraud." a user with the handle "@GiveUsArms" confronts Shkreli and says "logical fallacy. Simply because nobody was arrested, it doesn't mean it's not a fraud" 3. Shkreli replies, "i think that is the law."

Boss, we’ve got a problem. Users don’t want this stuff! They keep wanting to turn it off, even when we keep turning it back on!

It was only a matter of time before Martin Shkreli, notorious truth-teller, weighed in.

Also, just imagine writing this while you're begging the judge to get out of default for yourself *and* your company. Incredible.

Shachar does it again. Andrew Ross-Sorkin is one of the most trusted financial reporters of our time, I suppose, if you’ve never once heard of another financial reporter in your life.

A million better sources with a million better stories than having a book to sell.

60 Minutes @60minutes.bsky.social · 2d

This Sunday, Andrew Ross Sorkin — one of the most trusted financial reporters of our time — discusses his new book, “1929,” which examines the market crash a century ago and explores whether history is about to repeat itself.

I’m not saying this wasn’t legit, but there are several confirmed cases of Russia hiring people to vandalize synagogues in an attempt to sow division.

Absolutely no promises that I'll win. But you will at least get to see something interesting.
