We are having the worst run of climate luck with so many one-in-thousand-year events, record wildfires, and so on. It's almost as if there is some wider cause. Who knows, amirite?

Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) maker Dexcom results tonight are gobsmacking, off 40% afterhours. Company is blaming a host of things, from a sales force restructuring, to rebates, but it feels deeper, maybe even GLP-1y.

I see that Bumble is off 30% afterhours, absolutely cratering on current numbers and outlook. While much of that dating app's problems are Bumble-specific, the data on dating apps is poor, with interest falling off, especially among young people. Thoughts? Are running clubs

I have this heuristic that if I am in meetings at a public company and find out it has been opportunistically infected by a certain strategy consulting firm's ex-employees that said company is screwed. I can't remember the last time this heuristic failed me. See also: Intel.

A chancellor at a major US university once joked to me that he is basically a real estate developer: outside of sports, alumni only care and donate at scale for new buildings, so he had a huge incentive to build new buildings. Of course, as he said, then he has to find money to

US home insurers took the biggest loss this century in 2023. As climate losses soar, and US population continues to grow fastest in regions most prone to catastrophic losses, this will only get worse. The knock-on effects; huge policy repricing, policy withdrawal, and sometimes

The ongoing western US heatwave—which, given that waves break, seems the wrong word for a persistent condition—is producing insane temperatures at altitude. I'm seeing records set 8000+ feet up in California's Sierras, with temperatures hitting 91 F (33 C). That should not
