You realize raising prices at lunchtime would be the dumbest business move ever in restaurant history, right? This was the result of some stupid marketing person that likely doesn’t even eat burgers writing this.
Rideshare surge is a result of limited resource (drivers) and too much short term demand (riders). The alternatives are shitty too. So it’s intended to attract more drivers to the area.
Wendy’s are generally in fast food forests with tons of competitors. If you raise prices while people are in line they will leave. And not come back.
National multi unit megachains have issues with quick pivoting. AI allows a dream scenario where each store can adapt to factors of inventory, labor, demand on a granular level and make specials on the fly to drive revenue or reduce costs. Another instance of innovation that benefits consumers and employees being hammered by a hysterical media and luddites./zwhy are you a newb? @Texzilla58

School me on this.
if there is a spending cap of and most teams are within some percentage points of the cap, then why is there such a gap in performance between RB and the field? You would think that some team would just randomly stumble into something and/or find some unexpected talent that could push them. In a system that is setup for parity, it seems a bit strange that there are still consistently the haves and the have nots.
RB stopped developing last year’s car really early last year and devoted its cap space to this year’s car.

is that something inherent to EVs or is it because of designs that could also happen on ICE cars such as rivian's ginormous unipanel?

Oh cool, we’ve got a new conservative poster who likes to get drunk alone and troll the CR on Friday/Saturday nights with nonsense like “racism doesn’t exist.”
I’m sure the fact that this seems to be a common affliction among posters with certain political beliefs isn’t at all indicative of their poor mental health or that they are huge fucking losers with no friends.

And then, after finally expressly outlawing slavery and again reiterating the notion that all men are equal under law, proceeding to allow states to explicitly and expressly discriminate on the basis of race for the next century plus.
Unpossible.
You guys quit being toxic!

QuoteThe Witness. How is contemplation -- let me ask a question. How is contemplation of something evidence of involvement? I alone contemplate. I contemplate that one day you and I are going to be great friends. Is that ever going to happen, Mr. Gaetz? I don't think so.

i've been trying to tell the twitter magats this but they're all fucking morons:
QuoteMr. Gaetz. What value did you bring to Burisma?
The Witness. I would love to, again, read you the entirety of my resume.
Mr. Gaetz. No, that's the things you did before Burisma. I mean, when you
were working at Burisma --The Witness. Well, that's the value that I brought to Burisma. The things that I did before, my experience, the vast experience that I had. I was on over 13 different boards. I was the chairman of the board of the largest humanitarian organization, that supports the largest humanitarian organization in the world. I was the vice chairman of the board of the largest national passenger rail system.
Mr. Gaetz. Mr. Biden, I don't need you to go back through your resume.
The Witness. You just asked --
Mr. Gaetz. The question is, how did you deploy that experience for a million bucks a year for Burisma?
The Witness. How did I deploy that experience? By serving on the board in a transparent and ethical way, providing the best advice that I could give. Just like any other board member on any other company in any other organization, that's how you provide your value. And the value is your experience. The value is your ability to then transfer that experience into real-world action.
Mr. Gaetz. But you didn't have any experience as an energy executive, did you?
The Witness. Well, I would -- I would like you to understand what a board is. If you look at any board, most boards do not pick board members that are necessarily members of the particular industry in which they are in. What they do is they pull from different areas in which there is a need. They didn't need anyone to tell them about how to drill natural gas. What they needed someone to do is to be able to help them with oversight and accountability and to do corporate governance. What they needed was someone like Alan Apter, who was not an energy executive but a lawyer in -- working at --
Mr. Gaetz. What need did you fill?
The Witness. What they -- I'm not finished. What they needed was someone like Cofer Black, who had a wide range of experience in foreign policy and in that area of the world. What they needed was like -- someone like President Kwasniewski, who had a real understanding of the issues and the pressures that they were under at the time, none of
which were energy executives. And I don't -- I would challenge you to look at the Fortune 500 companies.Mr. Gaetz. What need did you fill, Mr. Biden? What need did you fill?
The Witness. What need? Was corporate governance. And I was an of counsel to Boies Schiller, one of the best law firms in the world at the time, and I, you know, specialized in corporate governance. I was the chairman of the corporate governance on the Amtrak board.
and then this holy shit
QuoteMr. Gaetz. Were you on drugs when you were on the Burisma board?
The Witness. Mr. Gaetz, look me in the eye. You really think that's appropriate to ask me?
Mr. Gaetz. Absolutely.
The Witness. Of all the people sitting around this table, do you think that's appropriate to ask me?

Quote
Kushner served as a repeated point of comparison for Biden: Republicans were quizzing him on his father stopping by a dinner one evening when Kushner pulled in $2 billion after leaving the White House?
A legislator asked him whether he'd worked for foreign governments.
“I never worked for a country,” he replied. “I am not Jared Kushner.”

I’ll be rooting for Cornyn.We aren’t going to get a better R senator. Last time Texans held the seats of power, LBJ and Sam Rayburn made sure we got paid.
ulimately, that was what mcconnell was most effective at. virginia got the most dollars per capita from the federal government, for what should be obvious reasons. second most? KY. mitch lubed up the rest of the united states and got us to give $18,743 net per kentuckian in 2021.

In the long run it may be.
we should probably find some tungsten plates and on them mathematically describe the mechanism for global warming, so that if anyone comes around in another few hundred million years, finds a layer of plastic in the geological records, and realizes they're the second civilization on this planet, maybe they'll find the warning and take heed.

midday show on the local NPR affiliate interviewing a couple of guys. one said that joey b wasn't backing ukraine enough. when it was pointed out that joey b asked for more support from congress, he complained that the republicans couldn't agree to it because of all the border stuff.
i'm seriously shocked that more people haven't lost their eyes while trying to tie their shoelaces in the morning.
