  1. Perhaps its time to reign in CEO pay on Marissa Mayer Will Make $186 Million on Yahoo's Sale To Verizon (cnbc.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Real corporate governance would start with CEO compensation. Since they are paid such astronomical sums it would make sense to review and revise compensation. Unfortunately, the board of directors are typically made up of other CEOs and cronies that real reform will not happen.

  8. Re:Physicists are getting desperate on Physicists Detect Whiff of New Particle At the Large Hadron Collider (sciencemag.org) · · Score: 2

    Actually journalists have been proclaiming new physics. Physicists have just been stating what they have detected. Happens all the time. Could be a mirage of statistical fluctuations or could be a new discovery. More runs will be needed in order to confirm. Standard operating procedure.

    Based on a 50 minute drying time. Assuming you clothes do not take that amount of time then it is not more energy efficient. It also means you can't use gas for your dryer which increases the demand of electricity.

    Why? That's where the market is. Gotta understand a business. People are buying SUVs. Stupid move but that's what buyers are doing. Makes little sense to push electric cars where there's a small market.

    Musk has sold investors on a vision. He now has to deliver profits. That's the problem for Tesla.
