It will depend if the convictions are served concurrently or consecutively. You're right about the 85% rule for federal convictions though.

Life in prison seems extreme. Im going to randomly guess sentencing will be 25 years and he'll be out in 15.

The next thing to armchair debate is sentencing. His convictions sum up to 110+ years in prison. That seems a bit extreme to me. Going to guess he will get 25 years and then get out in 15.

I found the wikipedia article [1] on the subject to be helpful to understand a little bit whats going on here. I wonder if there's more performant wasm implementations that can interface with the WebAudio API [2]? Quick search brings u

I glanced over the title and for a moment I thought this was going to be an article about the SaaS-ification of sites like https://www.shitexpress.com/

And then what? Is Hamas a wart you can simply excise? And if you do, will you just be galvanizing the next generation of fighters? If so many are part of the population, it would seem so...

While there may be a decrease in religiosity over the last few decades - a large part of the world still believes in some form of a god or gods. No use in insulting a large swath of society.

Spot on. Immigrants are usually the most thankful and grateful because they have the perspective. I've found that second+ generation Americans tend to be the declinists and doomsdayers when it comes to the future of the USA. I'm m

> maybe its the curse of the oil. There is no oil in the Eastern Mediterranean. Only in the past decade has offshore drilling started to explore natural gas.

The Eastern front of the Roman Empire is full of surprises. One fact that always impresses me is that one of the largest hippodromes in the Roman Empire is found in modern-day Tyr, in the South of Lebanon. The entire region is dotted with R

Makes me wonder how much information and insights can be gleaned from data that's just out there in the public domain. Can generative AI help with data-mining and extracting interesting and new things like this?

I stoped reading when it said "unable to pay the extra $292.20/year for 4 more always on repl"... if you're switching cost is so low, then yeah, switch off. But for me <$1 a day sounds worth it for the value.

I saw omnigres mentioned on a shakti mailing list. Many of these concepts have been around with k (kdb) and some other APL-like languages for some time. But Postgres will give these concepts a much broader appeal.

This is sort of a gibberish article. It has nothing to do with YC really. The story being told is that of any venture backed startup. The investors take the risk but if you build a business they may do better than you financially. Money gen

Cash sweep in Schwab is like 0.5%, it's nothing. But this is how they make their money, turning around and lending at 8%. But you can just as easily buy a short duration Treasury ETF yielding 5%+ or a CD.

I'll tell you the result: Petra would blow all the results out of the water with massive returns. But Peters results are theoretically somewhat more believable because he only needs to be lucky on one trade a year.

Schwab would rather you have cash in your account than be invested in securities. This is how their cash sweep works. The article is educational and generally stands up to the research on the topic. It is designed to build trust with client

Totally agree on not timing the market and staying invested. Nonetheless this analysis raises more questions than answers for me. First, as you often see in these studies, they use the S&P500 which has returned a 9 or 10% annualized rat

So this is the 2005 paper that started it all: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16111635/ I often wonder if, as a lay person, I would be capable of understanding the significance of really technical papers like this if
