I’m aware. The collateral for the credits are EV sales, hence my shorthand.

It appears at the moment that the instructions were acknowledged and that the helicopter pilots were mistaken about which plane they were avoiding, not that they ignored instructions.

And regardless, the purpose of an air traffic controller is to monitor traffic continuously. Having the prescribed number of atcs would have made space for the tower to see that the helicopter was on a collision course and act to avoid it.

You misread the sheet slightly. The total profit for the year was $7.1 billion, of which $2.8 billion was renewable energy credits. I.e. their profit would have only been $4.3 billion.

You are. Without the EV credits, Tesla would have folded years ago.

There is no poly shaming going on here. The article makes clear that:

  1. Kennedy was not poly with his ex wife. He just repeatedly cheated on her.
  2. He invoked the term to try and justify his behavior. And he is the only person here who made any moral judgement about it - he called it “wrong”.

I think you missed my point entirely.

We all just learned from Walgreens’ latest report that placing barriers between consumers and the goods they’re trying to purchase reduces sales, and CVS’ response to this problem is to add a login requirement.
