Re: Canada acquisition...

What kind of multiple (of GDP) should the country get, and how would it be financed?

This is the way.
When I travel for business, I bring a briefcase and a small carry on. Efficiency matters.

When I’m on vacation with family members, we check all our bags except personal items. We haven’t had a problem in at least 20 years. It’s very low stress.
Let's just get the myths out of the way.

1. Lost luggage is rare. (Less than 1 percent.)
2. Carousel waits are shorter than the scrum to get off the plane.
3. Even when airlines don't charge (like Southwest) people are asshats about carry-ons

American travelers are spoiled children.

Great accomplishment during a lame duck period.
The bald eagle has long represented the United States as a majestic and soaring symbol, but only this week did a law make it official. nyti.ms/4gPwAQ3

Maybe the establishment media isn't hostile, but perhaps it's just increasingly irrelevant.

GOP is reaching an audience through non establishment channels. Fox News might be the lone exception (but yes, it *is* hostile).

I wonder whether Google isn't more valuable as separate standalone companies. I'd be long YouTube and Waymo, but not sure about the rest.

This is amazing. Epic troll and attention grabber. Jaguar had become utterly forgettable, and now it's... not? Tape this to the wall. It's art.

Is it still FinTwit, or we calling it something else now? FinSkeet?
I made a starter pack with a bunch of the old FinTwit crew

For the intellectually curious, can't recommend 99pi enough. Great storytelling.
Today is a great day to start or get back into 99% Invisible. It's a show about the objects and systems we design and what these things say about us and our values.

Start with any episode! Jump around! Pick one about something you're into. Find one about something you're not

99% Invisible
99% Invisible with Roman Mars is a tiny radio show about design, architecture & the ninety-nine percent invisible activity that shapes our world.

I heard Cam Harvey on the Compound this week and was inspired to pull the data from FRED on outstanding loans from US commercial banks. It's no secret that commercial real estate has been hit hard, but you wouldn't know it from the value that's sitting on banks' balance sheets...

literally the only thing to dislike about this sort of development is that the trees haven't had a chance to mature yet.
