There should be no such thing as single family zoning.

> "Nobody in their right mind wants iran to have nuclear weapons"

Does not sound like Chomsky is saying "no, iran isn't a threat" to me.

Prediction: Iran will fold somewhat quickly and history will remember this as good move.

That's the avg initial comp package but the stock had a pretty nice run so a lot of people are making 600k++.

You really cannot understand why people are skeptical of FSD and Musk's promises?

They've been scaling quite rapidly lately. From the the look of it by end of next year it will be commercially available in a dozen+ major US cities.

> They had the opposite effect

The Ruble was on it's way to complete devaluation before Trump propped up the Russian economy by signaling he's willing to give them everything in exchange for nothing.

But it's also true that the west never really fully committed to the sanctions, the fact that you still had Russian oligrarchs traveling around Europe with relative ease was a pretty strong tell.

I recently had to use MS365 for a short time and I hated every moment.

Sure, but I guess what i'm implying is that some companies and business tycoons will do everything in their hand to pay as little tax as possible, and I'm pretty sure Musk is one of those people.

And yes, most companies will try to minimize taxes (shareholder obligations and all that), but I do think some use much more aggressive tactics than others and will use every loophole and every accounting trick possible.

It's nice of you to assume they pay a "fair" tax rate but based on Tesla I don't see that happening: https://itep.org/tesla-reported-zero-federal-income-tax-in-2...

Sure, but at this point it seems like Trump will soon start to actively support the Russian economy.

Eventually the Russian economy would've caved in. The ruble was in a free fall up until Trump decided to betray the free world.

Cool, but you know he could've been actually smart and just wanted prosperity for Russia and not just to destabilize the west because his little ego?

> Russian Federation is strong enough to send hundreds of thousands to death

You have a very "Russian" definition of strength.

I wouldn't call Putin smart - Russia overall is a fairly failed state. They could've been in a much better position. Perhaps maybe smart in terms of satisfying his own ego.

It's basically just min/maxing of attributes to fit the specific role. A throwing QB probably doesn't need to be the fastest man alive but a few pounds of extra fat will help protect against injuries.

Now does that actually make patrick mahomes more athletic than some random person that can run faster and lift more? I would say no, but he's definitely a better QB.

CUDA will still be a moat for the near future and nobody is saying that Nvidia will die, but the thing is that Nvidia margins will drop like crazy and so will it's valuation. It will go back down to being a "medium tech" company.

Basically training got way cheaper, and for inference you don't really need nvidia, so even if there's an increase for cheaper chips there's no way the volume makes up for the loss of margin.

The increase in efficiency is usually accompanied with the process of commoditization as stuff get cheaper to develop, which is very bad news for nvidia.

If you dont need the super high end chips than Nvidia loses it's biggest moat and ability to monopolize the tech, CUDA isn't enough.

Not really, if demand for high end high margin chips goes down considerably than margins and demand will go down across the board.

If medium to long term you believe the space will eventually get commoditized I the bear case is obvious. And based on history there's a pretty high likelihood for that to happen.

the PATH train is a lousy a replacement. Just look at the connectivity and coverage of NJ vs Queens & Brooklyn:

It's crazy how dysfunctional the state structure can be - in any functioning country the subway would extend to NJ.

Will be ironic if TikTok is unbanned and Chinese apps only gain more popularity from this whole ordeal.

Because maybe they dont understand the feature and are panicking over nothing? (or maybe they do, but there's only one way to find out)

Why is it an issue?

I read the first, there's nothing there that changes what i said.

"According to Israel’s Basic Law, state land cannot be sold" - meaning it cannot be sold to neither Jewish nor arab citizens.

and the 2nd is behind a paywall.

And again, non of what you wrote means that Arab israelis have only "token rights".

And please stop with the name calling.

> Both of which are about Arab Israeli citizens.

> Most of what I provided was specifically about Arab Israeli citizens

Palestinians in the west bank are not citizens. So again, Israeli arabs have much more than "token rights", they have all the rights i listed before.

> seeing as I think my other points hold strongly.

But they aren't. The initial claim was about Arabs in israel (aka israeli arabs), not Palestinians in the west bank / east Jerusalem which is a different topic.

Now don't get me wrong, i'm not gonna protect Israel's treatment to it's arab population, but let's get some facts straight. In terms of human rights you're still better off being arab israeli than being an arab citizen in most of the arab countries.
