Wait, so instead of just making it in China they brought Chinese workers to Italy… presumably so they could claim "made in Italy"?!? Isn't the whole point of "made in Italy" is that it is by some 12th generation handbag maker or some such nonsense?

The most insane part is when you talk to their excavation, plumbing/pvc, rebar, concrete, aggregate, decking, & tile subs, you realize they all total up to about 20% of the bid. Equipment+installation and finishing is another 10%. WC+insurance another 7-10%.
~60% is profit.

That Portuguese Bend area of Palos Verdes has been geologically active forever. Back in the mid-90s we used to go "off roading" on Palos Verdes Drive South near Sacred Cove because the asphalt would shift constantly - they'd repave it monthly. The water pipes there were all above

I'd guess an update server somewhere ran out of disk space but the DB tracking the update files still recorded the size, and then delivered that size as all zeros. These updates should have a manifest with a SHA256 for every file in the update and the client should verify!

Dress sneakers are bad bc they're neither here nor there. Commit to a look—formal or casual. They are also just another step in this slow slide toward a business casual aesthetic that doesn't have the flattering effect of tailoring or the expression possible in casualwear

Founders have common shares, investors have preferred. Preferred shares get paid first in most acquisitions (depending on the pref stack), so sometimes there is nothing left for founders/common.
Most "good" acquirers will structure the deal with earn outs or back-side payments

Think of latitude like the rungs on a ladder ("laddertude"). Looking at a map/globe with North up and South down, they are in the exact same orientation as ladder rungs and also tell you how high or low on the "ladder" you are.
