Why? If you're working on a performance critical application, you need that knowledge. Plenty of HFT firms use Java.

This is going too far in the other direction. There are absolutely people who have mastered e.g. Java, CPP or whatever with language-specific knowledge. Being an expert on JVM internals won't boil through to Haskell.

Obviously films can be produced without aiming to enter the Chinese market, but the highest budgets will go to the films which can, and they'll have higher marketing budgets and so on.

Working on incredibly boring retail banking systems which are a maintenance nightmare. If you want to work in a bank you'd get paid more working on front office software at an investment bank.

Why would testimonial.com be less than 35k?

...jointly owned by the central banks who make use of it. Seems fairly innocuous and the obvious way to structure such an organisation.

The peg breaks when Tether refuses/is unable to redeem USDT for USD. Obviously in any secondary market whether order book or AMM based there is going to be trading within a range.

There probably isn't a broad consensus among central banks on the whole ecosystem of money creation (nor among the economists in any particular central bank), but the things mentioned in that BoE article are really just trivial economi

Why the scare quotes? It's all verifiably backed on chain.

Because the spread is too small, when it widened a few weeks ago the spread was heavily arbed.

Here's one source: https://www.bis.org/publ/otc_hy2111.htm Reports notional as in the hundreds of trillions and market value over ten trillion. Unless I'm misreading you and you're talking about defi swa

With the Tether organisation themselves. They have enabled redemptions well in excess of 10 billion dollars since the start of the market crash.

They're not trying to predict the future, just show that this is not an historically significant event.

That's not the idea of MMT, it's a basic fact, hence the BoE publishing it.

You can get a dollar for a dollar, it's just not worthwhile to do so yet for arbitrageurs due to the tiny magnitude of the drift. Tether actually depegging happens when someone tries to redeem with them and they can't do it, the m

Swaps aren't very large? It's very easily a trillion-dollar market even without the misleading quoting of notional as market size.

Yes, your opinion seems based on how the numbers sound rather than what they imply/mean. The United States reaching 18% interest rates would have absolutely massive effects, we've been in a low interest rate environment since the

Under Haskell's evaluation strategy `(fix f)` will not be evaluated until it is used, if the definition of `f` ignores its parameter under some scenario, then evaluation will terminate.

Single quotes are more popular in British English.

Stop losses are absolutely not a given amongst professional traders.

I'm glad the word decimate is actually useful now, rather than referring to obscure taxes and military punishments.

No, they do it because they know the flow from Robin Hood isn't toxic. It's not about them losing money (market makers hold flat positions, they don't care what happens beyond the immediate future) but about them not being mo

They only did what they were forced to. Making an active choice to arbitrarily restrict selling as well would have been an insane move -- who are they to tell their customers they cannot sell something they own?

It's not my estimate, wherever you sourced your 270bn figure for his net worth will explain their reasoning.

His Tesla stake is worth ~190bn and the rest of his estimated net worth is comprised of SpaceX etc. Not sure why you think that is his Tesla equity only.

Oxford St is full of kids, probably one of the main places they congregate in central London.

You're exaggerating massively. They're expensive but 10-20x a comparable shop would imply they're charging £30+ for a chocolate bar.

It is the latter.

I doubt that very much, could you provide a reference? I also remembered the height of 123m from the original poisoning reports, because it is rather a memorable number.
