Some of the skill (imo) was creating characters who naturally set up opportunities for those dialog trees. That at least is already done for firefly

Oh for sure, not an actual proposal for how to invest

> “Shorting” a company does not just mean short selling stock. Instead, it means having a short position, which you can use without unlimited downside.

If you are an equity index holder anyway, simply by not holding any exposure in an otherwise "market" portfolio is a "short" relative to benchmark.

ie if I "buy" the SP500 constituents according to weight but with TSLA zero'd out my portfolio is essentially the same as long SP500 and short weigtht*TSLA.

Yeah, I'd have to go slower????

Anyway. I come from the UK where we've had camera based enforcement for aeons. This of course actually results in people speeding and braking down to the limit as they approach the camera (which is of course announced loudly by their sat nav). The driving quality is frankly worse because of this, not better, and it certainly doesn't reduce incidence of speeding.

Of course the inevitable car tracker (or average speed cameras) resolve this pretty well.

Reminds me of the FT article on the UK's energy transition and how costs were being spread through the system.

Made some reasonable points imo
