The last administration was paying utilities to shutdown coal-fired power plants before replacement generating capacity could be built... don't assume anyone considers logic when pandering to the eco-warriors!

The previous administration decided to have a White House summit promoting EVs, but either 'forgot' or simply choose not to invite the top-selling EV manufacturer in the U.S. because 'politics'. (The eco-warriors also burned and vandalized cars Tesla sold to private buyers because they hated the maker of the EV, somehow thinking that destroying a car Elon sold to someone else somehow hurt Elon?)

Logic is in short supply in today's political environment...

The ICE F150 is the most popular vehicle on the planet, sure, but not the F150 Lightning EV - if it was then Ford wouldn't cease production of the Lightning F150... right?

They got a patent for a battery pack for their EV Pickup truck?

Buyers may be happy with them, but unfortunately not enough shoppers turned into buyers... as I recall, the price was sky-high, to the point its own worst enemy, its strongest competitor was a Ford ICE F-150 pickup...

I landed several jobs (last century) in large part because I used my cover letter to connect my personal job experience with the job description provided - but nowadays, I suspect they go nowhere, since software invests, sorts and filters resumes...

I once applied for a job, got a rejection letter from the president of the company, telling me there was a typo in my cover letter, but didn't tell me where/what it was.

After reviewing my cover letter several times I couldn't find it, and it pissed me off that this fellow (a name many here would recognize) took the time to tell me I made a mistake, but stopped short of actually pointing out the mistake...

I'm positive he thought he was helping me, and maybe he did long-term, but at the time it came across as an F U power-play.

Has any employer ever WANTED to pay experienced workers higher pay?

Can you imagine how many applications they must have to sift thru to fill a single internship?

Once upon a time, internships were rare, now everyone expects to get land one (or more) just because...

Interesting use of the word 'deserved' - and the answer is he probably 'earned' his spot at Wharton, yes, he probably did earn it.

I've seen/worked with graduates from top MBA programs, they aren't all that impressive as a group - individually there are, of course, standouts, but as a group, not so much.

I think it's amazing that that a Chinese satellite was bale to avoid one of Musk's 8,000+ StarLink satellites!

Oh, if only there were some sort of a detector (or counter) that could be used to locate the 60 year-old nuclear device... Maybe we could ask Hans Geiger, I bethe's got some ideas...

Yes, horrible Amazon - they see what customers are buying and produce a competing device at a lower price - those bastards!

You seem to believe that Amazon should be a neutral marketplace and never offer its own products, amiright? Amazon, just like your local grocery store, convenience store, etc. is allowed to offer house brand items that compete with others that want to sell their products at the grocery store, convenience store, etc.

If, after 35 years iRobot couldn't beat Amazon at making robotic vacuum cleaners, maybe their time has passed.

Do you even understand what happened? iRobot went bust, and rather than hand over their IP and customers to Amazon, it got handed off to Chinese creditors (their manufacturers) so now iRobot vacuums will still be on the market, (still selling their products, the "pet shit spreaders"), only the data they capture will be in Chinese hands, the profits will be in China, and the US workforce will be decimated.

Kinda like when Obama administration declared Public Transit bus drivers were workers with Green Jobs, then declared every public bus driver that drove a diesel bus as a *new* green energy job they created?

But, honestly, the Inflation Reduction Act (AKA Green New Deal 2.0) was the legislation that paid power companies (incentivized them) to shut down coal plant at an accelerated pace DESPITE having no alternative to pick-up the loss in generation.

HOW does increased solar power production "(lower) demand on the grid"?

Do people use less A/C? Fewer lights? How? HOW?
