-21% Net profit yoy.

Also, Alphabet's number of employees through the years:

2021 was 156,500, a 15.67% increase from 2020

2020 was 135,301, a 13.79% increase from 2019

2019 was 118,899, a 20.38% increase from 2018

2018 was 98,771, a 23.29% increase from 2017

don't get me wrong, layoffs suck, but even after cutting 12k people they're still way above last year's initial headcount.

Data source: My wellbeing

This chart shows my average mood per day within 12 months.
I'm doing this for quite some time now and it helps me to digest my days. Since I love tinkering with charts, colors and representation of data, I've been tinkering a lot to find a beautiful way of presenting my data in a chart. I'm always coming back to this representation for my wellbeing on a yearlike calendar because it's simply the nicest way to look at it.
Hope y'all had a great start into the year! Cheers!

That’s…not true

Corporate tax is also referred to as “corporate income tax”, because it’s a tax on their income. On the income statement, this is labeled as income tax expense

Registering in Delaware doesn’t mean you don’t pay state tax, as your income gets apportioned to every state that you operate it. Registering in Delaware is for legal reasons, not tax reasons

And you also can’t really compare individual and corporate tax rates. A rate for a corporation is based on their income tax expense instead of the tax they actually pay

This chart is interesting, but doesn’t show numbers in a really useful way. The US generated 778 TWh in 2021 compared to 379.5 TWh in France in 2019 but the relative consumption really helps put these in perspective: Nuclear energy represents only 18.9% of all electricity produced in the US compared to 70.6% in France.

The US does use more nuclear than France (and pretty much any country, but I have numbers for France) but it only represents a fifth of total production as it is accompanied by more than 2.5 PWh of fossil fuels!

So, Yea, dirty, dirty America 🙈
