Atherton train station no longer is a stop so they converted it into a “museum”. visiting today I learned this tidbit - people used to dress up for the special nine hour train ride from SF to LA. Maybe some marketing and special trains could bring back better than HSR illusion.

Great founders and businesses expand the TAM. I wouldn’t be surprised if he hits his number.
There quite literally isn’t enough addressable market for this to even be possible

I calm the flight attendant. Ask their policy and have them deal with the rude people. But am considering just blasting Vivaldi at full volume.
On a plane. Person sitting next me watching phone with volume fully up. No headphones/airpods/etc. suggestions?

This is exactly why I changed my mind about buying in NY. I have seen how bad NYC can be under a bad mayor and how great it can be under competent ones.
A New Yorker was shot dead on his way home from work, and the gunman remained at large. Yet Mamdani was busy celebrating a childcare announcement. New Yorkers don’t need staged photo ops while their subways become increasingly dangerous. They need a mayor focused on protecting the people he was elected to serve. city-journal.org/article/new…

You can allready get the black card (if you qualify) and skip the wait. I have six platnium cards (all for the signing bonus) and don’t even bother most of the time. I tried in landing at Safari last night and was told they are now “departures only”
What’s the solution to fix the @AmexBusiness Lounges? Charge $5k for the card? I feel like the biggest loser in the world every time I show up and am told it’s a 45 minute wait. I have 2 platinum cards.

First job at 11. 25 cents an hour in credit to use I. The store. So proud when I got that increased to 25 cents in cash AND 25 cents I. Credit. Till they hired another kid and he got the same rate without my starting point. I remeber that 50 years later.

God she is bad. She didn’t used to be but now she is just bitter and angry and acting like a politician and playing to her base. All because she once made Zuck sweat and learned she could get clicks for it.
It's honestly insane. You have the greatest entrepreneurial genius of all time right in front of you. And on top of that, you're lucky he's completely sane. Give that kind of power to a Bill Gates and we'd already be living in 1984. You're corrupt to the bone, and you know full well you're lying. Instead of saying "ok, we lost, let's let Elon finish what he started," your first instinct is to want him in prison. For what, exactly? For soon giving sight back to the blind? For forcing the entire car industry to go electric? For launching, again and again, projects that move humanity forward? This class of corrupt Democrats makes me sick.

Because he’s jealous when the @Delta CEO said stupid things he got so much press. So he had to come up with his own stupid thing.
United CEO Scott Kirby wants a national wealth tax and inheritance taxes approaching 100%. Why not focus on improving service for customers paying more and getting less? If he wants to help Americans, he should focus on his customers, not punitive taxes. wsj.com/opinion/scott-kirby-…

I guess finally having an edge on @Delta s CEO with good business decisions (Starlink) wasn’t enough for media attention so he decided to follow his competitor slow the dumb tweet hole to show he is clueless and not focused on his business. Now they are both there. Bozos.
United CEO Scott Kirby wants a wealth tax. Is Bernie Sanders running the airline now? If Kirby wants to write a big check to the U.S. Treasury, nothing is stopping him. He doesn’t need a new tax to be generous with his own money.

Politicians are exploiting fears about AI and data centers, as with every major technological breakthrough. History shows that innovation’s risks can be managed and its benefits are enormous. Don’t let alarmism stand in the way of progress. My full piece here: forbes.com/sites/steveforbes…

They do t mind destroying what others built because they never built anything. This is the consequence of putting people in the dole, regardless of the form it takes.
Really hoping we can convince America not to vote to be like France.

Give people other peoples stuff, for free, and eventually it won’t be enough and they will want more free stuff. One of many reasons the EU is in fifth place in a two horse race.

I predicted it the day after the IPO (see Twitter) but didn’t put a time frame. Just obvious and logical.

Look everywhere in the world it has been tried. It has never worked. Except Switzerland where 1/ 1 percent or less. 2/ negotiated case by case. 3/ no capital gains. Its
The problem is that we have tons of evidence that rich people actually don't leave because of higher *income* taxes. We even have recent examples like the MA millionaire tax. So the question is why is a wealth tax different? It could be, but I'd like to hear the argument why.

Five flights that I thought had Starlink to get j e that did and crappy $8 WiFi. Massively overpriced tickets. And seats I. First that appear to have been forgotten from a maintenance pic. Stay in your lane. Do your job. Focus on your product.
It seems that @united wants to treat your wallet and your kids’ inheritance as badly as they treat your luggage
