Don't they still have their base business model with textbook rentals? 99% loss seems like an overreaction?

If that happens those companies will likely see an asset sell off as owners seek cash to buy basic commodities which will perpetuate a great depression. Sufficiently sized multinationals will relist themselves on different exchanges with ot

Crypto can be used as a store of wealth when crossing borders preventing search and seizure of your wealth against overzealous governments. See Russia in the early 90s which would regularly search and confiscate cash from people leaving. Th

It goes both ways. The comps being paid in the tech industry right now would pay off an average single family home in California in under 5 years. At this point these people are driving around in Porsches with second homes choosing to retir

This is one of the few reasons I was still on Android over iOS. If Android becomes just as bad as iOS why would I keep putting up with Android? It's exhausting dealing with operating systems that treat you like a child. If that's

It looks like this compiles PHP code to a .net binary but it doesn't support all of PHP so it's kinda useless for most projects. Benefits of this are dubious at best. The php interpreter is already a low level C project so why rep

Been working remote since before COVID and this hasn't ever been a thing for me. I just don't reply after hours. At one gig where I ended up being laid off (it was Playboy) I would stress about not doing this or that but in the en

The range of the Mammoth currently includes massive chunks of Alaska, Canada, and Russia where few people live. They might thrive in that environment much more so than the Asian and African elephants we have alive today. Maybe would even gi

For me it was a lot of small jobs. I was able to get it up to 3500 jobs an hour and likely could have gone far past that but the load on the MySQL server was not reasonable

Banning cell phones from class hours doesn't actually change the social media rat race in any way. You still have to maintain presence. That's just part of being social. We had the same distractions before smart phones. We would j

I've done this with mysql. Never do one at a time if you have jobs per minute over 30. It won't scale. Instead have the job dispatcher reserve 100 at a time and then fire that off to a subprocess which will subsequently fire off a

I lived in Maui for a year and it was always in the back of my mind that my link to civilization was basically one road. And my apartment was just north of Lahaina. That said I watched my dad die of cancer and let's just say he would h

For some reason it became the norm to think that if some piece of software isn't updated regularly that it's inherently out of date.

My random thoughts on this: - Is the math referring to the center of gravity as the singularity? Because even a sub black hole mass object would have that. - Why is there an assumption that just after a mass becomes a black hole the matter

by hparadiz 2y ago
I always thought the concept of a singularity here was just to make the math slightly simpler. That is to say that a black hole is still a spherical body with a set diameter. We just can't see it so there's no way to verify other
