You could say the exact same thing about the US stock market, except it's moved orders of magnitude more money. The risk may not be in the same spots as traditional markets, but it's there. Return doesn't come without risk, i

I mean, there are a lot of good reasons to question Tesla's valuation, but the panel gaps is a weird one. Tesla has accomplished putting together the best mass market electric vehicle and selling it for a profit (with government incent

I feel like a lot of the concerns are not applicable by the fact that unlike a real life hoard, it's really really easy to find almost anything digitally regardless of how it's organized. You can totally spend a lot of time making

Gaits, like fingerprints, would do a pretty good job of matching a suspect to evidence, but if they have a gait (or fingerprint) and there is no match in the system, then what?

Yea, this just seems like someone is trying to rationalize avoiding work. Injecting secrets is like one of the base steps of CI/CD. How else would you make sure this works in different environments? All of that might be unnecessary for

It's often as simple as "does it affect your form?". If you tweak your ankle, and spend the next bunch of miles favoring it, you're moving stress and load from the part of your body that was trained to support that stres

I think your method has a lot of complexity under the hood. For example, you need a republican and a democrat to co-host a show. Does the republican need to be pro trump? Does the democrat need to be anti trump? Do you think a Liz Cheney an

No, because the energy of the system isn't related to the order of the underlying data, it's related to the changes that happen to the underlying data. If you have 5 bits and flip 3, it takes the same energy regardless of if the 5

In this somewhat reductionist approach, would it be fair that CEO overseeing that process be paid billions of dollars? I think this is a decent thought experiment for ownership of an AI sufficiently good at a hard and profitable problem. Sh

I think this can turn (or devolve) into a discussion about the flaws of democracy, but which really don't apply in these situations. At most companies, there is a pretty clear escalation pathway to help resolve those who refuse to alig

I would have signed up for the trial, but I don't see why I have to add my email, name, DoB, and phone number. Why isn't email good enough?

Hambini can be almost too honest. He's obviously a great engineer and really knows his stuff, but dang he rips people a new one.

It's not less honest, the federal reserve literally sets targets for inflation and publishes them. Everyone railing against fiat money while loving bitcoin have the exact same views as a government economist. The only difference is tha

If you're flying back and forth on that route that often, you're going to get upgraded quickly, I would imagine. I've done 6 flights a month domestic and have been upgraded to first class for free fairly often.

So I'm not an expert either, but financial books are some of my favorite. I think the easy take away is that the bid ask spread is the transaction cost. If you can buy and sell a stock for the same price (minus price movements), it&#x2

Imagine a market that traded every hour. So everyone lined up their orders and what they were selling and at the top of the hour all the trades were processed. Now imagine this on 9/11, or a fed release. Prices from an hour ago are jus

A few things instantly come to mind. Bid/ask spreads jump significantly because of the decrease in liquidity. This has a ton of weird downstream effects as the "market" prices are less efficient and more risky. You also lose

Doubt it. Big companies using coding problems as a proxy for knowledge of coding, which turns out to not be a strong predictor of success at work and in life. There is a lot of data internally at FAANGs that being good at coding competition

I think it's a matter of unknown future needs that's the problem. If you want to do feature flags, you can basically build a service that stores key value pairs segemented however you please, throw it behind redis cache, and call

When you say, "but not one person was convicted of colluding with Russians": What criminal statute do you think would satisfy your criteria of "colluding with Russia"? I think pleading guilty for lying to the FBI specifi

Work = Force * Distance. Practically you're more efficient walking than you are running, but walking is nearly as effective as a calorie burner as running, it just takes longer.

You can, but it takes a LOT of work, and you still need to hit macros. Honestly, high level endurance or strength sports make eating a chore. You simply need a LOT of food with decent macros, and you need to be eating all the time. I was on

I think the only thing that remains blindingly white is now JIRA. Slack, github, and code editors support dark themes. Anyone know of a good mySQL editor that supports dark themes?

Yea, it's easy to understand if you want to do something well, you need to spend a ton of time focused on it. It's another to actually commit that time and show up day in and day out with a mindset that's fresh and always loo

This is true both ways though. If you're getting paid 140k, but your rent is 5k a month, you're only capturing 80k of wages, and the landlords are capturing 60k in rent. If you're working remotely for 100k, and paying 1.7k a

I'm sure it's just a level of optimization that's hard to solve because of a few reasons. a) it's a fairly hard technology problem. Large container ships can carry 20k containers. If each of those has a spot, and you hav
