My understanding is that a commercial bank can be solvent as long as too many clients don’t suddenly demand too much of their assets all at once.

Part of the reason why the fed was established was because there was a run on a significant number of banks roughly every 12 years between the founding of the US and the establishment of the fed. Not correcting you, just supplementing what

I think the banks that can handle it generally have diverse clientele. SVB had businesses and venture capitalists for clients. When you have a few clients who deposit billions and the relationship turns sour between the bank and some portio

I can kinda see the connection if i squint. There are two front lights on each side but instead of being the old halogen lights its two thin led strips on each side. The rear window fins, even the wheels hearken back to the grille like whe

Unemployment is supposed to go up as interest rates go up. Not all downturns are as extreme as the great recession or the Great Depression

Dunno if you’re being intentionally tongue in cheek, but a monkey jpeg startup is pretty lazy/scammy/bs-y

Though I’ve never connected the dots the way you have, the last time major commercial banks (like WaMu) failed it was because of being caught swapping much riskier assets than this article is pinning the blame of SVB failing for. Also, when

Intel didn't just jump into the gpu market because of the 2020 mining craze. It takes much longer to develop these products. They hired Raja Koduri in 2017: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2017/11/intel-p

They went into this knowing they'd spend billions before making money. Its taken almost a decade of development and Alchemist is out on the market and the drivers continue to improve. Intel's a big company with 28 billion in cash

Not saying we’re absolved from the bs, it would be great if other people also bought houses to be homes instead of a profit vehicle.

Not all current homeowners are sitting on their house as an investment. The true value in a house is that you have some property and a roof over your head as long as you can pay the mortgage, taxes and insurance. Much better than being at t

Yeah, if linux gaming does take off the story of the development of this chip might be have the trappings of “Pirates of Silicon Valley” story one day, at least to techies. It would be interesting to get the details of how this all went do

There were rumors of both a surfacebook and a MacBook that would’ve used it when the first rumors of Van Gogh circulated. The persistent story I’ve seen is that Microsoft wanted an apu for a gaming capable surfacebook then scrapped it, and

Earlier this year I was struggling with just trying to get an audio recording workflow together on linux mint. It was really eye opening and disappointing, considering that to get some tools to work optimally, you have to get into the weeds

Thanks for painting a mire elaborate picture of how it all went. Of course c had to be compiled on some system, and there were probably a good variety of systems around back then.

The comment im replying to literally says that theres a route in iowa with a distance is 181 miles. I dont understand why theres so much gaslighting in this whole comment thread.

Yeah, hopefully they tested range for the coldest days in winter in that region as well, considering an aerodynamically optimized tesla gets 200 mile range in optimal weather conditions (i.e. sunny day in Los Angeles/the bay area)

Am I missing something? This whole thread has been about delivery trucks not long-haul trucks.

I thought c was primarily developed for the initial purpose of being the language used to write Unix and that their developments were practically one after the other and that Ritchie and Thompson were colleagues at Bell? C was designed for

Or someone at the briefings said there was a possibility that the origin of the virus was a lab leak and that was the only thing he actually heard and just said that the origin of the virus was a lab leak.

“People eating weird things” isn’t the only alternative theory to “lab leak!!!” A farmer handling infected guano (which is used for fertilizer) could’ve been patient zero. A scientist studying bats in a cave could’ve been exposed, and I gue
