I don't get it, the problem has been known for awhile so why hasn't the key been replaced? Anyone can do a ELI5 on the app signing key replacement difficulty? It isn't covered in the article and seems too high level for a lay

So just like YouTube and Reddit ads then.

Is there a reason that he would do that since the HSR directly pulls cars off the highway and relieves congestion? Do you have a link to him talking about the hyperloop X HSR cancellation discussion?

There is value, in that a generation of moderately wealthy idiots got convinced that monkey pictures are worth something. Like a cult brainwashing, they have attached their identities to those worthless pictures and now are trapped in gree

Well said, I rarely compliment replies but I feel that description is worth bookmarking.

Maybe at first. Singapore had to make lots of tough decisions early on, and they fixed it early. Problems which still plague their neighbors to this day. I say today, the base economic situation of the people and the disparity of wealth is

It's not a race thing, it's a trust and culture thing. There are diverse countries that have similar levels of safety like Singapore. If your government sucks, laws are poorly enforced or even maliciously enforced - there is low t

Why would you think so? They have the combined budget of the next 10 militaries. Price is NOT a high priority for their procurement team, unlike most shoppers.

The VC model is also pretty stupid or at least not worth trusting that they did due diligence. They pretty much just threw money at everything that moves in SV and hope they become real companies. Their months of background research? &quot

It's not like he hasn't been talking or typing. His lawyers probably reckoned he was talking way too much, was too much of a liability and dropped him immediately. The real question is he keeps receiving positive media coverage? T

Credit when credit is due. Matt did call him out months ago on about how cynical his take on crypto was. Saying he was describing a scam. And that raised many red flags for others on SBF's ethos. SBF prolly noticed his error and took e

It's fair to be mad. There are hundreds of puffs pieces praising him in the MSM all the way till the day of the collapse, most of them VERY recently. They are trying to shift blame and cover their butts. The pivot now seems to be blami

Oh I am familiar with the trade and op IS doing the same bet as the widow maker fx trade on a smaller scale without derivatives. Think abt it, he is suggesting buying currency in hopes that it will appreciate. Same bet, different method to

Housing is typically cheaper in Japan because: 1. Depopulation 2. Efficient zoning laws 3. Rapid depreciation of home value over time due to natural risks(earthquake etc) and cultural norms

Are you planning to go from losing money in crypto to losing money in fx? Because you are suggesting the classic BoJ widow maker trade, which has killed many a trader. But who knows maybe you'll be the foolish but lucky one.

The BoJ is where the fed get their crazy money printing ideas of QE and YCC from. And even they were finally forced to raise interest rates or go bust this year after decades of wild monetary experiments. Even their money printer couldn&#x

Kinda reminds me of the ex-google engineer Damore case back in 2017. Except Damore never did it publicly but it was leaked to the press anyway. And anyone taking public adversarial stances against their bosses rarely last. Corporations on g

Ironically Binance's low trust makes their users especially diligent about on and off boarding their funds. Their model is closer to DeFi than their competitors who are CeFi Besides what makes FTX especially trendy to cover was how he

That's the problem with just reading data reports at scale. Hiring 30k people so recently then firing almost half of them the next year, even filtering a tiny quarter of a percent is going to create outliers who get affected with serio

FTX.US is based in the US and that didn't solve the fundamental issue of manhandling funds. KYC didn't stop anything, the fraud was internal. If proof of reserves was enough for you then Binance is on the same level as Kraken. It

And a week ago you would have included FTX in that KYC "western" list esp since they had so many big "western" investors and Washington's ears including the SEC. Not to mention Bitcoin and crypto were created out o

Some call this a "hack", others who are brighter noticed that the recent FTX limited account unfreeze before they declared bankruptcy was to mask their own personal outflows as they siphoned money from a sinking ship

That's assuming SEC enforce their own rules, they are often... Subjective and reactive.

Like you have conceded, there are more than a few notable cases in recent years. Often hiding their "secret sauce", which often turn out to be lies and deception for a variety of reasons. It is no longer very very "unusual&qu

Really shows how little oversight any of these venture funds have. They come across more like frat bros with huge pockets casually giving away billions under a pinky promise of eventual returns. At this point, they are doing the same level
