A small luxury of living in Madrid: I don't remember the last time I bought ground beef without seeing the butcher grind it in front of me.

They just need to start doing Trumpocorridas telling of the great triumphs of El Donaldo. Instant Green Cards.
The USA is cancelling the visas of Mexican musical groups that sing "narcocorridos" (music that glorifies narcos). Grupo Firme is HUGE, one of the biggest and most famous bands in Mexico right now.

With the ROI of college being questionable and the costs in the US going through the roof, shouldn't US kids consider doing their undergrads in Europe? Way cheaper (even with international pricing) Lots of 100% English programs It's like study abroad but for the whole time!

I don't tweet much about sports, but between PSGs massive victory, Mbappe mejor goleador de la liga - France's prospects are looking pretty nice right now.... Just need to get the interplay right. The game on Thursday against Spain (at the top of their game) will be interesting.

There is a huge amount of money to be made by telling American parents that their children are uniquely gifted in something.

There is a huge unmet demand for dog free spaces. Big opportunity.
Weirdest adjustment in SF hasn’t been how tech-centric the city is, homeless population, or any of the other stereotypes. It’s the dogs in restaurants and bars. All the time. People are too confident bringing their dogs in venues that have no business having dogs inside.

This number is insanely high. Wouldn't the quickest way to improve birth rates would be to make it easy for them to adopt?

Just spent 2 weeks in the NYC area with a toddler. Obviously it was difficult navigating the shitty subway and piles of trash, but there was a wonderful silver lining. Interactions with weirdos. There is a whole bunch of odd yet harmless people who make NYC special. A long

Americans shouldn't visit big European capitals - they are over touristy and overpriced. Instead there is a long tail of smaller towns with almost zero tourists that are lovely with cute squares and great food. Europeans should also not focus on the big US cities, but rather go

What makes Airbus so impressive is that they spent a ton of resources on a business blunder and then built the A321 XLR which pushes point to point travel beyond anything seen so far.
Blake is 100% correct, and the commenters are wrong. The A380 was a bad idea from the start. Airbus spent $25B developing it forecasting 1,200 sales, needing 500 to break-even. They sold 248. When at BCG I worked on a project on this topic (for GE), we concluded that it was

The US is now treating people with 1st tier passports the way they do with Latam + other passports for years. There was an unwritten agreement that 1st tier passport holders could show up as tourists without a second thought. It will be amusing if the EU starts doing this with
