You can if not every actor in your system is trying to gouge the others ...

The ACA has specific language that limits insurance company profits to a percentage of gross costs of care.

It’s in their interests to have the provider costs be as high as possible as it directly limits their own profits.

To put it another way, when the private equity that bought your local doctor’s office raises their prices, your insurance company wins.

10TB external harddrives are relatively affordable.

Anecdotal but running a server with multiple bridges for multiple years. Had such issues initially but none recently.

Yes but shit like this still means that if your hardware is in a minority category you will lose access to services.

For a time I couldn't access a number of website because Linux+Firefox was apparently too rare, with Linux+Chrome at least I could pass a captcha (was Akamai I believe).

Not sure where you extract is supposed to come from, the paper argue that

> Many have blamed the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the 2003 Global Settlement’s effects on analyst coverage for the decline in IPO activity. We find very little support for the conventional wisdom, and offer an alternative explanation

No wonder you got ignored ..

The paper. The one that was cited. (It was a working paper at the time.)

Nevertheless, your quote drives the point home. The paper rejects “the conventional wisdom” which “states that low public market prices are due to either lower valuations caused by the lack of analyst coverage, or to lower earnings as a public firm because of SOX and other costs.”

The Pro Publica article says that paper shows SOX did not reduce IPO volumes. That’s false. The earnings channel is rejected. But otherwise, the paper is about acquisition versus IPO.

It’s understandable incompetence. It turns into a lie when one digs in after the error is pointed out.

> No wonder you got ignored ..

If a journalist ignoring me means I can let their work be ignored in multiple state and national capitals, I will take it as a win.

(And with the benefit of hindsight, the article was dead wrong. I built a bit of a career on the private markets starting in 2012, as it happens.)

There is the "--ignore-scripts" option and had no issue using it for now.

When vertical not much of an issue and the reflection from the snow appears to work well with bifacial.

Well removing any distribution after a CVE is a nice touch ...

I wonder if a better angle would be just the unauthorized used of likeness.
