You would want someone who is intimately familiar with the culture to be involved for a long time in case something happened to Warren.

There's a big difference between keeping all of your ownership and giving it to the son and paying a huge salary and making him non-executive chairman while giving away most of your wealth.

He was chairman and CEO for a long time. Since he has only been a chairman for not that long I don't think it's fair to say that he's been a very active chairman for a long time.

He's there to maintain the very unique culture of the company. I think it's sort of like if they have his son there he of all people should know Buffett's/Berkshire's culture and be able to best maintain it. He&#x27

I don’t see many these days thankfully. I Use happily YouTube premium and mostly AI for web browsing-equivalent activities.

I do wonder if the more they goose their ad business the faster it eventually falls. I know I am more and more reluctant to view many normal Web page ads at all and usually immediately click away the second a site gets annoying

They can be doing fine at AI models but not so well with AI revenue. Although I am curious if they are not worried and playing the long game confident that their distribution will eventually help them catch up (and worst case they own some

Anyone know how/why this one can take so many more HRV measurements? I mean the other ones can. What makes this one take more often? Guessing they are just setting it to do more. This is one thing that really annoys me is that it will

This post is not about Navier-Stokes. That is in a different thread. Glad you're cry-happy though.

It’s been no secret that being fat is terrible for us. It’s getting people to actually eat less is the hard part.

Spent more time looking at this because I was still interested in the alpha it found and found this: "cumulative_after_cost_return": -0.004003033519454746" https://hub.harborframework.com/jobs/af0299f9-a3

The comment in the parent said "kind alphas the agent found". It linked to a job then a trial. All of the comments I read there except for one said things like "The final alpha check is still fitting; the prior lagged backtes

I looked through the transcript/output of the model/run linked but didn't find anything that showed much, if any, alpha. Maybe I missed it?

So many lakes do not have rivers flowing in and out. A low spot in an area will become a lake. Many do have rivers; many don't. Ponds even more so don't have attached rivers.

This doesn't provide an answer for lakes. But I always thought the explanation was eggs randomly getting stuck to bird feet. Or maybe a bird carries a fish with eggs up there and eats it or something. Inevitably it happens though...

No, it wasn't. I had it in there from the get go. I did not edit my comment for any reason, I don't think at least. Like I said in the original comment, you can be moderate/non-partisan and think this is a bad idea. You can t

You can be pro/fine with legal immigration (and moderate/non-partisan) and still not think birthright citizenship is a good idea (like I do). Also ~95% of countries don't have unconditional birthright citizenship. It creates

I’m disappointed and surprised you left out half of the conditions that grant him this compensation. You only included the one that suggests that all he has to do is buy a bigger company with GME stock. It was literally the first paragraph

They refused to refund me $200 when I had both a claude code subscription and the other thing. I had been using credits or something. Essentially double paying. And they just refused.

My current guess is that you get much or most of the benefits, but not all (by both value and number). If you look at the actual changes in the body during both of these activities, most are the same as exercise, but not all. For example: b

Also AI could help you pick those skills up again faster, although you wouldn’t need to ever pick those skills up again unless AI ceased to exist. What an interesting paradox-like situation.

Governmental filings are not PR and either are lawsuits. The lawsuit was won or at the very least validated by a judge.

No. I figured it was almost completely if not completely about OpenAI. These things tend to be quite lengthy and I do not have an hour to devote to reading things that don’t directly impact me or my family of profession these days.

Yes I am sure of the second part based on the government’s own publicly available tweets and lawsuits that have been filed.

I do wonder exactly what he was doing to be considered a snake. I know he was working on other things, but what else was going on?

I mean he quit what he considered to be a problematic company, founded another one, that one’s models refused to do things that the previous company would do, then his new company refused to do the US government’s evil bidding while the oth

I’ve never been annoyed with YouTube search. Product is great as far as I’m concerned. Love YouTube all around.
