With Air France now avoiding the southern Red Sea, flights are now routing north over the ocean, then west through Oman and Saudi Arabia.

Berlin’s aviation tax regime, combined with ambitious sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) regulations and competition from Chinese carriers, has engendered fear among airline employees in Germany. On Oct. 30, trade union Verdi and representatives from Lufthansa signed a petition calling for a swift…

The new document underscores that in addition to serving a legion of startups and fledgling businesses, SVB was a go-to bank for tech industry giants, including some that have kept their relationships with the bank confidential.

Have you ever known someone whose technical brilliance was overshadowed by personal failings? This is the story of Hans Reiser, a software developer driven to create a superior Linux filesystem, but whose difficult personality got in the way.

One of the best parts of antitrust trials is how much information comes into the public domain about corporations that usually keep details about their industry private. The Kroger-Albertsons supermarket merger case is no different. One interesting nugget is that supermarket executives see rural markets as particularly easy to monopolize, because there is often just one store. They even have a name, “no-comp[etition] or low-comp[etition] zones,” according to one executive on the stand.

Ghost jobs are wreaking havoc on tech workers

Somehow missed Particle’s response to Epic.

The Munich crisis in 1938 triggered air-raid precautions, including the distribution of gas masks and sandbags. Actual war in September 1939 brought rationing, recruitment and requisitioning. Ministries required buildings and the military needed billets. Everyone wanted both the old with brains and the young with brawn. 

People in Berlin like to complain about the perpetual gray weather and they’re completely right. Seasonal affective disorder is very real, and it might be a good idea to look into Vitamin D and light therapy lamps. One note: a lot of people buy cool-colored light bulbs or a SAD lamp and use it like a regular light. To get the real effects of these lamps, you need to get a real one and use it very close to your face for a long time! I went with the complete nerd option: Luminette lamp glasses, which I use right as I wake up. 

Kamala Harris – $1 BILLION
Donald Trump – $388 million.

What seems increasingly clear in modern campaigns is that paid ads, door knocks, sound bites, la etc. are increasingly less effective than content, long form, direct to consumer, personal social, memes, etc.

My first months here, I realize now, led me astray. I knew no Japanese when I arrived in August of 1983. Unable to read the signs in train stations, few of which were in English then, I took a slow local train from Narita to Ueno, where an American friend was to meet me.

Embrace Uncertainty: Boyd teaches that growth and innovation come from navigating uncertainty, not avoiding it. Welcome the unknown as a space for new opportunities.

Moreover, they make decisions as a committee, based on the internal politics of the FOMC and the external pressure of the press. The difference between a step up from 1.25% to 1.5% is much bigger proportionally than from 4.5% to 4.75%, but they talk about them similarly. There is no more “science” here than there was during COVID.

The Pennsylvania Senate race is not over. More soon.

With an unimaginable to-do list, Trump plans to tear into issues both foreign and domestic. Erik explores the possible applications and outcomes in a world that is currently acting with weak, or vapid leadership.

Hilarious. Woman is depressed because Kamala lost, but she is unable to walk in the park near her because of all the homeless people.They will never make the connection.

The United States is about to become a vastly superior place to do business. We are already the safest and most militarily capable country in the world making us an extremely attractive place to live and raise a family in an increasingly dangerous world.

The Kamala Inc. Fire Sale.

Jeppesen is, remarked one senior Boeing official to TAC recently, one of “the few places in the company that write good software.”

What you can’t see in this video is the hoard of hungry pelicans crashing all around me as dozens of baitfish swam between my waterlogged legs. Glad I’m not a fish.

Boeing desperately needs a replacement for the 737, but billions of dollars of losses, new debt since 2019, and other problems make pursuing a new design impossible right now. Mulally undoubtedly has views on this score, too.

The SuperTicket is playing with fire. I would highly recommend that someone in the transition team get Gary Hart on board, who is one of the last living links to the Church Committee, and could thus advise as to what it is actually like to frontally engage the covert and intelligence operations groups in a hostile fashion

“I am a humble Scottish merchant trading in the China Seas. My family has followed this profession for almost 200 years,” he wrote. “When we are bearing the sticky heat of China’s Pearl River Delta or the tropical rainforests of equatorial Borneo, we dream about the cool, soft mist of the green Galloway hills where we were bred.”
