Is it really an "if"? I think it would be pretty safe bet that in 100 years human-quality CV object detection will be solved (note, we both know that it is possible AND this doesn't require AGI). So then it's really a qu

Decentralization at its finest… except for as always it’s more centralized than the traditional art market and with the added bonus of irreversible single points of failure.

The OP was explicitly talking about people making >>100k. At any rate, 5-600k is a staff/principle swe at a lot of tech companies, or even just a senior in some. Given this forum I am guessing that’s not an insignificant percenta

Marginal value of money decreases the more money you have as consumption doesn't really scale up. Easily one should take a nice 500k/year job vs a stressful 600k/year job.

Sure, but you are settling for sub 200k at an enterprise co vs 300-500k at a tech co.

I’m no against mice models, but I do think that relationship between amount and outcome are important and non-linear and what happens when 2/3rd of your calories come from something is not indicative of an effect when you consume a sma

I am guessing scissors, esp if they get sharpened 2x/day will not last multiple decades (because sharpening an edge removes material).

No, this is prob still spiky enough to have more than 7 transactions per second, that’s too much for Bitcoin.

Maybe, but again a university is not bound by due process requirements. I do agree that it might be good practice to not violate them. Let’s see if Purdue does eventually act.

The students followed and threatened, that’s harassment. Even if it was legal, the campus can still expel them if it violates their standards. The campus is not bound by the first amendment, as it is not the government.

> constitutional rights This is a false statement. The only regulation here is title VI and title IX. The administration of a public university is not legally part of the government.

by ivalm 5y ago
Purdue certainly has policy against harassment. Other students followed and directly harassed, Purdue is not the government so it doesn’t even need to weigh free speech or legality.

The problem with tether is not the amount minted/in circulation. The problem is that they definitely lied previously about their backing and are probably lying now. If you claim to be one of the worlds largest commercial paper holders

Because it is faster and cheaper with internet. But blockchain is not faster and cheaper than a database… blockchain has to do everything a database does AND solve the trust problem.

I am not saying inflation is bad . However we should separate decreased real cost of debt with employer provided wages. If prices on goods and services are increasing that extra money should proportionally drive wages. When people complain

I mean sure, you can dispute inflation number as being the relevant index, but CPI if anything underrepresents increased costs lots of people experience in Seattle.

5% raise when inflation is >5% is a real wage cut .

Consumers actively choose walled gardens over free alternatives. In fact, consumers are willing to pay premium AND put up with all the rent-seeking precisely because the free alternatives are trash in terms of UX/UI, which at the end o

Because what happens to him is rare and the benefit of being in a walled garden is immense. The solution should be to pressure the walled garden to have better recourse when things go wrong rather than throwing the baby with the bathwater.

On average ~0.5% of amzn trades every day, with some days going up to 1.5%. 4% in a matter of weeks is honestly not going to have too major of impact.
