9 billion in general company bonds. I guarantee you they also have debts secured by 110% of their system's current value, which could be much lower than the replacement cost, being based on projected future revenue.
Why would they have paid an unsecured interest rate if they still had equity? That would make no sense.
In the world of realpolitik, there is nothing better than having two of your enemies fighting each other while buying their weapons from you at full price and selling their assets at bargain rates to pay for them.
Does he think other manufacturers make sloppy parts on purpose?
The process defines the margin. Tesla injection molds/presses/machines tools will _not_ be 10x more precise then others. I don't care how often Musk has them change the tooling.
I worked for a manager that didn't understand dimensioning. She added two 0s to a dimension on a drawing before sending it to a contract manufacturer. Those would have been some insanely expensive 0s, if they hadn't been just undoable. Specing an O.D. to 0.25000 inches. How do you even do that?
Tesla has _much_ bigger problems. If the documented test cars are a guide, Teslas will _all_ be junked within a few years of going out of warranty. Motor sets (22k$US) are being replaced, on average, every 2 years. Cars are being totalled by insurance companies after being caught in heavy rains with the windows open (flooded battery pack, about 50% probability that seal will hold). 'Fender benders' cost 30k$US to fix.
He is distracting. The fact is that Tesla has made some incredibly bad decisions beyond electric power...The door handles jump to mind (talk about a _dumb_ unnecessary complication). 100% aluminum body. Auto Driving vapor. An electric drivetrain was a reach, adding all sorts of 'seemed like a good idea' bells and whistles doom the company.
The modern standard would be to setup an independent system operator (ISO), a transmission operations company, sell each of the generation units separately and dispatch via power bids into a pool.
We'll see what the corrupt government of Puerto Rico does. I bet the whole thing ends up in the hands of contributors, particularly any profitable, low cost, generation stations.
The key problem the power company has is not getting paid for the power they generate, which private enterprise can help fix, not being beholding to voters.
What? He was going for a runway in New Jersey. Worked the math, realized it was out of range and ditched in the water. Sullenberger also followed procedure in a calm and professional manner.
Career risking? Your giving him credit you're not giving her. They were both saving their own asses as well as the passengers' and crews'.
The war is over a thousand years old. The only time it has stopped is when someone _dictated_ it must stop. Remove the dictator, and they are free to fight again. As they did.
Iran/Iraq or the 80s was a recent flare. It too was well managed by the USA and the CIA. I'll give them a 'good job' in hindsight.
The worst thing about Hillary was how open her corruption was. Her supporters will still lie for her, even when it's _just_obvious_.
What happened to the flow of funds going into the Clinton global fund and why? Explain why it just disappeared, if she wasn't openly hocking influence. All the bullshit was revealed, the day after she lost.
Just how much power do you think is stored in 20,000 gallons, 100 feet up?
And payment upfront. When they were kicked out, they were in the process of stopping work as they hadn't been paid anyhow.
Counter: the 20th century. You lose.
Keep it up. That's how your going to get a second term.
Don't hang around with middle schoolers is a 90% solution. Disable all web trackers.
The answer is cutting off deadbeats. Same as in your hometown.
He doesn't. He sells lists of names that meet criteria. The data itself is too valuable to sell, just once.
Facebook is upset that Cambridge Analytics did what Facebook does. Never throw away data and never miss a chance to collect more.
If you put your life on the net, the data will be collected.
You could build a FOSS global gossip network and it would still have it's data harvested. For example: I guarantee Github's data is scraped.
Don't put your life on the net, do put disinformation on the net. It is that simple.

What? Seriously WTF?
Modern _economic_ wind turbines are huge, they feather the blades and stop when the wind gets too high.
Putting a model airplane propeller and a tiny generator on your roof is useless, unless you're pursuing a hippy chick.
If you moved to Spain, you would also still pay US federal taxes.
Citizens of Puerto Rico don't, I'm looking for a mail drop there and to change my legal residence. Being in CA, my vote is guaranteed wasted anyhow.
The only smart people on the left are those angling to be in charge. The rest are just chumps.
In the world of realpolitik, there is nothing better than having two of your enemies fighting each other while buying their weapons from you at full price and selling their assets at bargain rates to pay for them.
He's talking about panel gaps. Which have long been a point of pride in high end cars.
I presume you're talking about grinding carbide mills in some custom profile.

PREPA is in the process of being sold off.

You must be new here. FA reader...

Except Bill losing his law licence for lying about it.
I also find that slinging my penis over my shoulder is the most comfortable way to stow it.
Turbine hubs have failed in flight. That's the part the compressor blades attach to.
There are also more than one ring of blades in a turbine.
Is the AC ironic calling others 'idiot'?
Vermin Supreme was the relatively sane option.
Bullshit.

That makes it too easy for the bastards to hide a high tax rate.
We should just continue to teach math, er maths.
