  • I couldn’t imagine being a software engineer for Telsa, pouring your heart and soul into making a good product.

    And in your bosses’ drunken haze, gets to make an ass of himself on the world stage and get paid 1,000,000,000x your salary to do it.

    Lose advertising investors, lose quality and face on the products you have to build. Still gets to be CEO of three failing companies

    But your job is the one that gets canned to save the stock price.

    Edit: loose


  • How does one get a 175 million fake bail bond? Like, the magnitude of scale alone is insane, but they tried to fake it?!

    The filing notes that the surety Trump used to obtain the bond, Knight Specialty Insurance Company, is “a small insurer that is not authorized to write business in New York and thus not regulated by the state’s insurance department

    I can see why they are concerned. Nearly 200 million is no joke. This would wreck a smaller company if 200 million was needed immediately. And Trump doesn’t exactly owe this company his alliance.

    Even though “Hank” the owner of the company, is a billionaire in CA from car loans and rental properties. Most of his assets are tied to properties that will not be easy to sell on the spot (Eviction usually takes at least a month), or on car loans that take time to accumulate in value.

    On a non logical note: He isn’t exactly the most trustworthy either…

    In October 2015, Westlake Financial (Owned by Hank) was ordered by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to provide $44.1 million dollars in consumer relief for engaging in illegal debt collection practices. Westlake Financial and its affiliate Wilshire Consumer Credit deceived borrowers into thinking they were being called by repossession companies, other third parties, or even the borrowers’ own family and friends. The Bureau also found that the companies unlawfully disclosed information about borrowers’ debts to employers, family, and friends.

    So lying to get what they want isn’t off the table in this case either.



  • He then says that when a unit of 20 men attack a Ukrainian position only “two or three come back.”

    None come back, because Russian commanders are starting to execute soldiers that retreat.

    He says: “Yesterday Sam flew the plane and said that just 8 people were sitting in the trench, just 8 khohols [Ukrainains], f*ck! And our men go there by the hundreds, and they are not even capable of taking a f**king thing!”

    "Snipers and machine gunners are sitting there, and that’s it! There is absolutely no one else there!

    8 vs. hundreds, no wonder Russia thinks they can take the village. I would have too.

    Unfortunately, it looks like the tactic of going in one by one like a row of ducks through a minefield, is a pretty dumb tactic as far as military blunders go.
