Small homes are so hot right now.
Even though builders’ fixed costs remain more or less the same for a 1700 sqft home vs a 2500 sqft home, Americans are starting to like small homes again.

Motor vehicle crashes cost America $460 billion in 2023. That's $1,380 for every person in the country.

Anyone else notice well-known musicians disappearing from their Spotify playlists?
Here’s why: web.archive.org/web/20241225...
Tl;dr: it’s so Daniel Ek, Spotify’s CEO can avoid paying out streaming revenue to artists.
Ek sold $345M worth of stock last year, the equivalent of 115B streams.

What if every name-brand company started using prediction markets for product decisions?
For example, Netflix wants to decide which new original series to greenlight.
They release the pilot episodes publicly. And people bet on which series will surpass, say, 50 million views in the first month.
