I am generally not very fond of unions, but prevent wage theft is a very important function Unions have historically done very well. If there ever was an argument for unions, better contract enforcement would be it.
Think of all the poor unsuspecting stars! Have we not drained enough heat from our own already? When will plants learn to stop appropriating energy that isn't theirs to take?
Of course the Falcon can be compared to the SLS. Both are vehicles designed to take things into space for crying out loud!
The figures are easy to compare as well. Just include these factors in your comparison! Even if we don't know exactly what those factors are, we can make a ballpark estimate the total difference and add that as a percentage to spaceX's final figure.
The idea that things can't be compared because they are different is nonsense. When things are different is the only time comparisons are meaningful to make!
It's a well executed website, but there is no good reason for it to exist. You shouldn't be on a quest to find high yield dividend stocks in the first place.
Whether a stock pays dividends really shouldn't factor in to your decision as to whether to buy it. Any dividend a company pays out makes the company worth that much less. Whatever you stand to gain from the dividend, you stand to lose in the value of the stock you own.
When buying a stock the only thing that matters are its fundamentals. Ie. is the company's assets and future earning potential worth more than the current price of the stock to you? Unless you have information that the market doesn't, this is not a question whose answer you will reliably get right.
The reason we don't want companies to gain market power (the feared result of mega-conglomeration) is because it allows companies to charge more for the same or a worse product.
If this person believes that Blizzard being acquired by microsoft will result in a better product, then they expect the net benefits to outweigh the negatives of Microsoft's increased market power over the video games market.
Acquisitions that produce a consumer-surplus should be most welcome!
Very sad about this decision. Blizzard has shown itself to be entirely incompetent, and seeing how well Microsoft managed the Minecraft IP I was looking forward to seeing what they could have done with the excellent blizzard IP.
Used to have huge three screen set up, arch linux, all sorts of complicated nonsense.
These days I have a 14 inch macbook, which I put on top of a few books and control with a keyboard + magic trackpad. Can't say it's made me any more or less productive.
The biggest improvement i've made was acquiring a desk treadmill, hasn't affected my productivity but now I'm getting 10-20k steps a day without really thinking much about it.
