1/ Big demand for X ≠ the business will be financially attractive:

"Americans eat more ice cream per capita than any other people in the world, with most bought in supermarkets for consumption at home, leaving the category open to intense discounting." wsj.com/amp/articles/n…
2/ "The key to investing is not assessing how much an industry is going to affect society, or how much it will grow, but rather determining the competitive advantage of any given company and, above all, the durability of that advantage." Warren Buffett
3/ Example: Weed "grows like a weed" and there is competition from illegal suppliers. visualcapitalist.com/cannabis-compa…

25iQuiz:

1/ Why might Apple offer a interest free loan on an iPhone or other product (plus higher cash back) if you have an Apple Card?

What's the cost of that program per average per gross addition of a new Apple Card holder?
2/ "Mercator estimates that it costs a bank about $250 to acquire new credit card customers, with about $100 going to buying the bonus airline miles and the rest covering marketing and operational expenses."
3/ What does it cost a wealth manager on average to acquire a new customer? kitces.com/blog/announcin…

This below too high or too low?

1/ The impact on Seattle of this shift is even greater than other cities since the metro population is smaller. "Five Cities Account for Vast Majority of Growth in Tech Jobs, Study Finds" bing.com/amp/s/www.wsj.…
2/ One thing Seattle has done well is to not try to be "another Silicon Valley." Every city/region must find its own path to prosperity via differentiation. Yes, there are common elements like a major research university. No, Silicon Valley can't be fully replicated.
The report uses a specific standard for what qualifies as an "innovation job." R&D jobs in key technology categories is the test. Not every tech related worker qualifies under their definition. Every top 10 city has at least one major research university. brookings.edu/research/growt…

As many of you know my Team has been working almost two years on the unsolved murder of Seth Rich. We have uncovered more than any group in America in this investigation. This is a thread and rundown of our findings to date. With some theories added at the end.

#SethRich
Seth Rich was the Data Director of New Voter Registration for the Democratic Party (DNC)

He was shot in murdered in the early hours of Sunday Morning July 10th, 2016.

Many, including our team believe he was the Wikileaks Source.

All evidence points to this.

On Chinese New Year, THE WANDERING EARTH, the first full-scale big budget space science-fiction film from China, will open in theatres. There will be many more to come. So here's a thread about previous and proto-SF Chinese movies, to try and wait (im)patiently.
It started in Hong Kong, then a British colony. Hong Kong films were mainly produced by private funds, with little to no money (and less control) from the state. The first Chinese-speaking sci-fi film was RIOTS IN OUTER SPACE (Wong Tin-lam, 1959).
The comedy film, produced by Cathay, is seemingly lost (anyone knows where to find it, give me a shout!). It was about two workers from a firecrackers factory who are brought to the hospital after an explosion. They dream of travelling to Venus and Mars.
