At the size of the largest businesses in the US, there is no “economy of scale” benefit to consolidation. They are at maximum economy of scale. They’re already behemoths. The benefit of consolidation is just that fewer people get a choice, and so they get all the money.

David Zaslav, and everyone like him, would quite literally feed you and your family thru a machine that converted you all into a cheap fuel source if it were legal for him to do so or even just required paying a small fine.

Newsletter: Goldman Sachs has called BS on Generative AI, and I believe that it's time that everybody follows suit - generative AI is unreliable, unsustainable, requires an entire rebuild of America's power grid, and is most decidedly not the future.

I have never understood the arguments against solar farms 'wasting' land. The land is still there... in fact, you can still use it for grazing, etc. It's not being polluted. And in future decades, when we find better technologies to generate clean energy, we can... take them away again.

Isn't it interesting that they're trying to frame themselves as initiating *that* war instead of the Civil War? Wannabe Confederates still don't like being called what they are. Probably because it reminds them they lost the first time.
