At the higher end it's also just smaller more specialist (cardiologiste, pædiatricians) markets that can command a higher price as a result.

To some percentage of the British population, I fink you'll find it's exactly the same sound.

I think even Flo's behaviour is not news , but it is worth distinguishing I think between more organic and generic targeting behaviour based on say searches for health advice or other products, and selling 'first-class' heal

Are you joking? There's loads of trivial links. Most obviously: it's stopped (pregnancy, menopause) and therefore so too will stop purchases of certain 'female hygiene products'.

It's a good use case really – it'll tell it differently according to what it knows about your background, if you 'just Google it' you'll get the same maybe-appropriate results as anyone else.

Yes, that is exactly my point. "You were our only female employee, so we're offering you VR"

I did think it was strange they didn't spell that out though. Maybe they thought 'Mexican' makes it clear, but it reads too easily like a species name.

By that logic a job offer is in no way discriminatory since it is voluntary?

I scan as I walk around the shop and only pay at the self-checkout, I'll happily volunteer that 'labour' of scanning a bar code as I drop items into my bag instead of a basket in exchange for not having to hang around at chec

But nevermind culturally foundational, if you take away drinking at pubs then they're not pubs, it's immediately more of an impact, and more of an effect on local economies, small businesses, etc. too. I disagree that age-based

And to make that an arbitrage you'd need to subcontract someone local to do the job you've taken the California pay for. It doesn't mean 'get a better deal in a non-obvious way/place', it's taking both sid

I have no horse in this race, that's sort of exactly my point - they haven't mysteriously 'gotten away with' it like done something illegal and nobody noticed; there have been cases, there will be more, it's so far

You find it telling that some YouTube 'influencer' uses Airpods? You only noticed because of Apple's distinctive white branding, they have market leading marketing, I'll give you that!

They've 'gotten away with' it by for example winning cases deciding they offer commodities trading, not gambling. (You can disagree with it, it's in the open and explicit is my point.)

Successful for the business no doubt, but they are an example of 'par with the rest of the industry' aren't they? Nothing market leading about them (except perhaps the price, heh) and not the first in the category, just one o

I know, I just don't see the arbitrage in what's described? If I order online because it's cheaper than the high street, that's not an arbitrage – the arbitrage would include then selling it on the high street afterwards

Are you using 'arb' to mean something like cheat or trick, or cost-saving technique?

Which is essentially also providing a platform for making the book for the other platform, on which 'bookie fees' are charged, but Polymarket itself only keeps a certain cut of it, for facilitating but not actually book-making.

Fair – but not if it's not their feature branch but their local master; they pull & merge the remote changes and then push the result.

Until someone merges master into their feature branch rather than rebasing it. (And then that branch later gets merged.)

It would be cool to have multiple selectable cities, and compare them like that. I suppose to do it 'fairly' though you'd want to offset them so the peak times etc. lined up, so they all had a commuter rush at once. (London w

Which makes it non-compliant in the UK, and no doubt elsewhere too. I don't understand how Apple (hardly a small fly-by-night!) continues to get away with it.

Yes, exactly? And closer competitors to Uber came later and are I assume successful. Just like there is Gitlab, Bitbucket, sourcehut, and several others all 'within the confines of the hosted git problem'.

"don't work well for AI" is a hell of an understatement, the Application they are Specific to is literally just sha256(sha256(x)), what AI are you going to do with that? GP probably didn't mean that hardware though, but
