  The laziest employees prefer the office, since they can just sit and do nothing, but get credit since they sat in their cubicle all day.

  Getting measured based on your productivity terrifies lazy employees (some of whom are executives).

  Speed, for one. 5 minutes vs 30 minutes to an hour to be fully charged. Makes a big difference for road trips.

  Anyone have knowledge of Nio and the long term viability? Are they targeting the US, or just China and Europe?

  I know that a large number of brands and news organizations have reported that their Twitter engagement has completely disappeared, which tells us far more than Twitter’s press releases ever would. Ita dead.

  I’m not sure what app you are thinking of, but WeChat is used in China (Northern hemisphere) and was backed by the Chinese government in order to be established.

  He was just sitting on an asset, keeping expenses down, waiting for it to appreciate and sell. Most of the NBA owners are doing this.

  The one thing Jordan did prove onc3 and for all is that he has no business making draft picks.

  I really enjoyed the video, although I didn’t make the same leap in logic that the reason Bosworth spent so much on his tombstone was simply that he ‘didn’t realize how much his estate was worth’.

  If he spent one-sixth of his entire estate on a tombstone, and with it being so much research just to find out the details of that, we don’t know what his will did with the rest - he could have spent it all in equally eccentric ways just to piss everyone off, which apparently he was already quite good at while he was alive.
