Is there any attempt to normalize the time available to the human and machine players? Seem inherently unfair to give the computer player the same clock time to make a move.

imo a wealth tax is as close to theft as you can get without actually showing up guns drawn. How many times is society going to "tax" the same money? The wages and compenstation have been taxed. The income from investments have b

False. Per CBS Marketwatch " Amazon Chief Executive Jeff Bezos recorded total compensation of $1,681,840 in 2017, almost all of which is money paid for personal security — Bezos drew a salary of $81,840 and received no additional stoc

It is extremely unlikely that you are paying more in taxes than any of the super rich. You are complaining about how the tax code treats wages vs investment/passive income. The reality is (as of 2016) the top 1% pay 37% of the total i

Been away from C++ a long time. If picking it up again, is it better to just start with C++17 or 20 or stick to C++11 which seems to be the defacto production version?

I think we would have other information (rumors, etc) if there were a large bank in trouble and, AFAIK, most repo is tri-party reducing risks further. Another reason I feel this is not a single name problem is that the spread of FF to IOER

This isn't about counterparty issues. That was Lehman in 2008. This is a systemic liquidity shortage.

Recommend a google news search and pick one of the Bloomberg stories (they limit how many you can read for free). The problem is that (apparently) there are few lenders in a position to give up reserves to fund other participants bond holdi

My understanding is that Treasury took in an additional 80+ in cash against their stated goal of having 350B cash on hand (by quarter end I think). Obviously this is a very large draw of liquidity out of the system and is likely the single

My understanding is that it is not really useful to compare Power9 to other cpus in these types of benchmarks, that Power9 is all about computation with massive datasets, not how fast it can zip a file.

IIRC most turn into muons or electron/positiron showers, depending on the incident angle. Recall a physics lab long ago playing with NaI scintillators and photomultipliers at 10kV to detect the muons from the showers.
