Silicon Valley Bank’s Collapse Causes Strain for Young Companies – The New York Times

Having worked in the banking sector and having seen up-close how tightly regulated the industry is, I’m somewhat surprised that this sort of thing can happen at a retail bank.

On Friday, Roku, the TV streaming company, said in a filing that roughly $487 million of its $1.9 billion in cash was tied up with Silicon Valley Bank.

Where were the regulators in all of this?

Pasjoli? C’etait Vraiment Pas Jolie

It was truly not pretty.

At $200 a head, I would have expected better service.

The food truly was immaculate. And the wine pairing was amazing.

But I found the help to be a bit far too familiar.

If I were Michelin in Los Angeles, I’d think twice about renewing their one macaroon rating.

The food was divine. But I found their waitstaff unamusing in their efforts to solicit a larger gratuity.

So, three stars pour le cuisine; but no Michelin biscuits, I’d say.

Better luck next time.

After all, it was supposed to be my birthday dinner.

Tisk, tisk. You have hurt my feelings and I am inconsolable.
