Correct, the Plaintiff's lawyer pointed to the $800k day and said, "on average you make this" and I firmly believe Jones was confused, and tried to correct it, but the goal of the lawyer was to inflate the income numbers to m

This is spot on. There is something really psychologically off with him, watching how he behaved on the stand: * fidgeted with everything * couldn't focus * couldn't follow simple instructions * would forget about something said a

This wasn't a criminal trial. Although we all want to see our "political enemies" and indecent people everywhere punished, we have to stop calling for people to be jailed without clear crimes being committed. The whole "

I think his lawyer was intentionally bagging him. I can't imagine anyone is that bad at their job in not prepping their client for trial, in turning over documents they shouldn't have, in not following up.

I watched the entire trial. I couldn't turn it off, tt was so enlightening to watch the legal proceedings, and I learned a lot. My opinion: to be fair, (not defending Alex Jones at all), the plaintiff's lawyers did not enumerate t

I don't understand why they can't just make them trades based on future political actors. Feels like that's what the futures market is in general - risk betting.

I think this is a fair analogy, but maybe I'd add that LiveBooks uses MarkDown markupfor the non-code part of the notebook, make it far more readable, and with more visualizations coming in. For example, recently an addition to add aut

The Fed will keep raising rates, but the reserve requirements for banks is at 0% since 2020, which means even people put money into savings, the bank can loan 100% of their deposits out. Oversimplified example: So if I deposit $100, and the

Understood, and agreed once you have root access you can get passwords but I've not seen many that are this easy , and I'm now thinking there's something I need to understand about how to detect if certain traces are happeni

My ignorance, I had no idea eBPF tracing would make grabbing people's passwords so easy .. that's quite scary to me. I thought it was mostly good for telemetry and deep kernel metrics, but this seems like a serious security flaw t

Aside from this platform, which I've never heard about until now, I'm wondering what others are using in the workflow orchestration space? I'd assume Airflow is the most prevalent, but there's also Argo getting quite a b

To be honest, one thing which blocks me is people being productive -- although WFH has benefits for work-life balance, people tend to get distracted and produce less than they would otherwise. My bias currently is to hire and ask someone to

Public discourse is d-e-a-d. Whatever happened to just ignoring the things you disagreed with, or debating them? I fear we live in the stupidest timeline of The Simulation.

Let's be clear why this is happening though, and where the credit is due: Trump's push for on-shore manufacturing, Gov. Abbot, and the attractiveness of Texas for a plant and FDI. $17B and 2,000 jobs and, even more importantly, o

The moment that any large number of people start pushing the point that ideas or speech they disagree with is actual violence, we're all a bit doomed.
