I didn't realize it had been sold so quickly. Just shy of 2 years work sold for $1.65B... not a bad ROI.
I don't know when I signed up, but it was fairly early on. Usually I don't sign up for things until someone says something so foolish my nature won't allow it to go unchallenged.
Previously, I had been using Putfile as my video repository. When that got crushed into oblivion by Youtube is likely when I signed up.

If I subscribed to Youtube instead of lurking, then I'd feel obligated to 'like, share and subscribe' to everything.

Yes you would. It's the only platform which I've "liked" something (excluding 'thanks' on this forum)... and I did it because it's a way to keep track of the content I found profound so I can revisit it in the future when I've forgotten half the stuff.

The new stuff is like a fire hose, I just watch for patterns.
Secondary source, but Robt. Barnes pegs NYC's losses at 10 billion minus 355 million.
As Letitia James exudes greed and envy. Then there's the truckers....

Problems can only be solved with OPM until it runs out.

"Problems can be solved with OPM only until it runs out."

Like CO2, it's most efficient to confine something at the source rather than mitigate after it has become diffuse. With CO2 we call it carbon capture.
*not to be misconstrued to draw equivalence between a so-called undesirable pollutant, and people.
My wild idea was to set the annual number of legal entrants to some high number, and reduce that number by 7 for every non-legal entrant. It plays to the motivations of both sides.
