Do you remember when you joined Twitter? I do! #MyTwitterAnniversary Only older, not wiser. Thanks for all you’ve done for me.
NFLX’s tumble reminded me that streaming is a profitless prosperity for high-cost entertainment content. Thought experiment: if every American HH takes a streaming service, it would only be $24B revs a year at $15/Mo with no churn. Makes no sense; not enough broadband or $$$s.

Note how future of the auto industry is now framed around capabilities, not strictly tech... See this review of #Lucid (v. MB): nytimes.com/2022/02/07/busin… and this on #Ford: bloomberg.com/news/articles/… @brentdg2 @apphil @marcventresca HT @johnbpenney

Chasing Tesla, companies like Lucid are finding that starting an E.V. from scratch has its advantages. A comparison with Mercedes-Benz’s new EQS shows how.

Collective intelligence (CI) is the ability of a group to solve a wide range of problems. Synchrony in nonverbal cues is critically important to the development of CI; however, extant findings are...

Couldn't agree more with @mpetricone; look a the number of immigrants who have founded Fortune 500 companies in all lines of businesses and you'll be shocked at their innovativeness! We need you.

Fruitful policy discussion to be had: why do we still tax “earned“ (wages) income at higher rates then many forms of unearned income, especially when our world is awash in capital. #taxpolicy #innovationpolicy #asymmetry @paulkrugman
