In the past 6 months we’ve produced a cheaper, more efficient seeding material, trained a hyper-resolution AI weather model, and operated 100+ cloud seeding flights for the governments of Texas and New Mexico. Recast Systems is coming out of stealth. Here’s some of the research we’ve been working on. (1/n)

Apple releases its new portable digital music player, the iPod. It has 5GB of space and 10 hours of battery life.

After 15 yrs, I think this will be my last year selling on Amazon. It has now become a DEN OF THIEVES. Buyers purchase an expensive item, receive it, claim it's damaged, return it (but what the buyer returns is usually some broken junk they had laying around their house, while they keep what was in the box they received). Amazon issues a refund to the buyer and the seller can be out thousands of dollars. And Amazon ALWAYS sides with the buyer, rarely the seller. It is also now overrun by Chinese sellers hijacking small mom & pop listings & getting take down orders on the mom & pop listings as I outline in my post below from 2025. And there is literally nothing the small US businesses can do to rectify it. And now the fees they charge almost make it impossible to make a profit. One absurd fee they rolled out is a "Low inventory fee". If you run out of stock of an item because it sells fast, you get charged a fee FOR BEING OUT OF STOCK. Heaven forbid your supplier is out of stock, or you just don't have any extra inventory of that item, they'll still whack you with a fee each month for not having inventory at their fulfillment center for them to ship out. Coupled with all the other fees they charge, you can easily hit 40% of your sales revenue going straight to Amazon in fees now. That doesn't include YOUR costs, like cost of goods, packaging, etc. After 15 years, to me, it's just really not worth it anymore. It's been a good run but they've made it almost impossible for small third party sellers to make a profit. They prioritized the low cost Chinese knock offs years ago and now seem to prioritize complete thievery all in the name of Bezos' original mission of being the "Earth’s most customer-centric company.” The first and most important principle of Amazon's Leadership Principles is "Customer Obsession". But I'll add one tweak: "Customer Obsession: Even if the customer is a blatant thief" (A recent screenshot of a discussion on their seller forums)

Yesterday I had to drive from Fort Myers to Jupiter, Florida so I decided to make a pitstop at The Lakefront Estates and Villas. A private All- Hasidic Jewish community being built in Lake Okeechobee, Florida. #lakeokeechobee #florida #hasidic #jews #israel

These idiots don't realize that rent controlled buildings are already trading at - effectively - the option value of a future mayor rolling back rent control.
