Seems that he defrauded his employer and employer’s customers. The original NFT owner should have gotten the profit from the front page listing. A physical analog would be an art rep for Sotheby’s directly buying a piece from a perspective

Amazon has a starlink competitor in project kuiper. AWS has made massive investments into solar and wind energy. AWS owns a chip company (Annapurna) producing cutting edge networking, virtualization, and server chips. AWS has a leading indu

Bezo’s isn’t progressing tech and innovation? Odd since there are very few areas of tech that Amazon/AWS aren’t on the cutting edge of.

Yea none of this is “algebraic geometry”

by ABeeSea 4y ago
You still need algebraic topology to get anywhere useful on continuous functions between spaces.

Good. Lots of communities on the internet try to tie themselves into philosophical knots to justify piracy because they just don’t want to pay for things.

Snowden’s charges had a maximum of 10 years. If he had surrendered and pled, he would be free in America soon. Instead he gets to spend the rest of his life in Russia. That was his choice.

Source? I would be very surprised if there was a neural symbolic PDE solver better than what’s in wolfram mathematica.

It’s a fancy way for Russia to say that it is defaulting on its foreign debt and attempting to pay it with monopoly money.

Russia said they would pay foreign bond holders in rubles even if the bonds are owed in dollars and euros. The exchange rate would be set by the central bank. Most would consider this a default on the loans.

If the plant melts down and explodes sending nuclear material for 100s of miles that wouldn’t be nuclear war?

So if someone detonated a dirty bomb in Russia, that wouldn’t be nuclear war?

Why isn’t it?

by ABeeSea 5y ago
Why? It’s basically a giant dirty bomb.

Isn’t intentionally causing a nuclear meltdown during war already nuclear war?

SPY is up 12% YoY. A 30 day metric isn’t how retirement investing works.

I don’t see that at all. If a research professor can’t get a job at a top 250 school, it likely means their research isn’t impactful. Which makes it hard for them to mentor/advise graduate students towards generating impactful research

Skimming it and it seems like a mixture of pop-sci and crankery. Ghosts, teleportation, and telepathy in the same book.

Both candidates are Republicans. It’s a primary race.

Not surprising that Texas Republicans are fully behind wasting as much energy as possible. They talk about renewables but most of the Texas mining will be powered by burning natural gas.

Based on Tesla’s history with FSD, I don’t think giving any Musk company the benefit of the doubt is warranted. There are two options: 1) They don’t monitor the warnings. 2) The warning doesn’t matter. Move fast and breaking things. Both op

The dual numbers, in my opinion, are a lot easier to understand with some background in differential geometry. In differential geometry, if I_x is the ideal of smooth functions vanishing at the point x in the ring of smooth functions, then

Same thing happened to me. After 8 years working at amazon including multiple raises and promotions, I got piped. I was trying to transfer to a new team led by a new senior manager who was a peer of mine at one point. Exiting the pip requir

The change in cash flow especially cash flow less leases leads me to believe they are massively expanding either data centers, warehouses, or both. New aws regions? New amazon country launches? Or more if each in their existing locales? Eit

Inflation is not a direct cost of interest. If we are going to included opportunity costs in the definition of profit and loss, then we should include the opportunity cost of tax revenue plummeting if the financial system collapsed.

They were profitable. They collected more money than they lent out on a dollar to dollar basis.

Most of the commentary about the 2008 bank bailouts presumes all the money was spent or given to banks. Banks paid everything back. A couple billion dollars in opportunity cost because of inflation is definitely worth preventing a collapse
