  • Usually good and informative, however...

    Mishal Husain has no etiquette as an interviewer. Her tone comes off as very insulting. The attitude of British journalism only works in Britain, not the real world.

  • Not an economist

    Yes, exponential, but relativity matters more. “Hardware” is not “Vaporware”. "what Andy giveth, Bill taketh away."
