A lie like this seems like it should be considered fraud

It's a collective action problem.
If everyone pays higher wages, there's a greater supply of money for buying stuff / solving problems (assuming the higher wages aren't eaten by rents). No individual form recoups all of the higher wages they pay their workers, obviously, but there's a larger market for the goods of everyone has more money.
Is there? Covid stimulus would say there isn't. Granted a company raising wages doesn't print money out of air like the Fed but the amount of goods doesn't change, the cost of the goods adjusts to the monetary supply. You now pay more for the same.

Before or after the solution was published?
I was thinking exactly this. People consume processed foods because they highjack our evolutionary responses. If GLP1 agonists make people immune to those high fat, big carb diets, perhaps we would see a decline of these strategies and instead seeing companies compete for the low appetite of people through smaller quantity yet high quality foods, rather than fast large quantity food.
This feels overly optimistic. You want to optimize for existing foods that are still high fat big carb and don't have the quality qualifier. I'm not familiar with the biological pathways that GLP1 operates on but I'm sure food companies will be working on adversarial products

That's a spicy meatball. And also very stupid, but I admire the lack of foresight it takes to advocate for insider trading. What's your next hot take? Can i suggest 'Epstein did nothing wrong'?
Epstein is good for the economy because it ensures politicians get goods before they would be considered market ready allowing for policy to be created proactively. /s
It’s hardly a free option, by your numbers it’d be a 20-30% discount.
Sure but if there's no moat would you rather pay 100% or 80% until the credits run out? You reap the 100% spend in the meantime. Not everyone even has the no moat discount.

I'm still thinking about the hypothetical optimism brought by OWASP top 10 hoping that major flaws will be solved and that buffer overflow has been there since the beginning... in 2003.
I mean giving everyone footguns and you'll find that is unavoidable forever. Thoughts and prayers to the Mongo devs until we migrate to a language that prevents this error.

>>Why would you write in cursive?
I'm confused. How do you write if not in cursive? Do you just write in block capitals? With each letter on its own? Do you just not hand write anymore?
>>Cursive is an outdated skill for when it was the fastest way to get words written to paper.
But....It still is? Without using some kind of machine of course.
I'll be honest I actually prefer my words to be lasting and have weight so I prefer block letters carved into lead which doesn't benefit much from cursive
That is to say organizations have always had this edge on individuals.
