Are there any good resources someone can point to on getting into the code and mechanics of this? The article was a nice read, but probably distills the real stuff behind some journalistic simplification.

You should probably question what "stay informed" means. Do you need to know every move and event that happens all over the world? Probably not. Most of it is useless and insignificant. One thing I found that helps is to go cold t

The financial markets are a fantastic ecosystem. There are all types of players out there: short-term vs long-term, high-frequency vs low-frequency, technical chart readers, fundamentals, macro, hedgers, punters, speculators, 401k managers,

Elon musk made a point in a recent talk, the entire demand of the USA could be satisfied with a 100x100 square miles of solar panels. Thinking in those terms, you realize it's quite achievable. Edit - 100x100

Upvoted because I partly agree with you. And also for the liberal use of wanker throughout. Hiring is really hard. I think when this Netflix thing was written it was a different era.

The added benefit of streaming services is there's an app for almost every device: all TVs, phones, iPads, computers, etc.. That alone is a killer feature you can't really replicate on your own.

I understand it was Citadel that accelerated the demise of UST. This is pure hearsay at this point. But we can't rule out that there was a coordinated or massive attack on the stablecoin algo.

Nice app. Could benefit from a taxonomy of things. For example, "Fruit" is not searchable - but most fruit I searched for appear to be OK for dogs. https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q503 << For example.

It seems like he only needed to put up $4bn of his own money. The rest of the financing was leveraged with loans. And some investors would also keep their shares (like the Saudis) I'm pretty sure "funding secured" in this cas

He's an opinion writer. And he writes in an informed manner. Cannot recommend Matt Levine enough...

His crime was he wrote about it in company email... And the fact that he did so in bombastic terms (aka widows and orphans) was only fodder for the media. Remember, your corporate email is not yours. Especially at a financial services firm.

SPACs are ridiculous. The sponsors take the lions share of the profits. Free money in many cases.. and the small investors get absolutely nothing. The whole scheme was rife with manipulation and excess. Not surprised GS is taking the conse

P/Es are irrelevant here I think. $COIN is a transaction-based business. Transactions are correlated with the price of BTCUSD. BTCUSD is down 50% in 6 months. The r/wsb crowd and others just wont be as enthused to trade something

The solution is to lower the cost of electricity. Why is nobody talking about this?!? I jest... 16 pence / kwh is pricy I think. Thats around $0.2/kwh whereas the US average is around $0.13... so around 50% more expensive in UK vs
