Yeah that seems like it should push the premium higher. Even if it's some institution with very bad quantitative models eventually the careless put writers should run out of shares/capital to secure the puts with and get liquidate

Optimizing for VC money rather than focusing on building something good sounds like a good way to waste time.

GOG has the only serous competitor to Steam IMO. It's the only big store that's well behaved enough for people to actually want to use it.

How would taxes or any other cost not be part of the calculation? That makes no sense.

Sure cut that too. Throwing money at stuff doesn't make it better, often it just attracts people who are good at working over administrators for money. I think you're seeing a lot of that, especially in education. It's so bad

That does happen a lot. They get licenses to use but not distribute software for example. Servers are hard so it makes sense they'd want to buy rather than build. It's the same reason most games aren't open sourced when their

It's such a bizarre counter argument. The whole point of the movement is that developers are choosing to harm the medium and should stop.

Even Google and Facebook are releasing distills of their models (Gemma3 is very good, competitive with qwen3 if not better sometimes.) There are a number of reasons to do this: You want local inference, you want attention from devs and pote

Most investors know how to read a financial statements, selling such a business isn't the hard part. The hard part is keeping the IRS from coming after you for claiming it's a business and not a "hobby."

Why not be maximally moral and donate all your money to the government?

Education and healthcare get insane amounts of money already. They're not struggling because they're underfunded. If anything they're good motivation to not pay taxes.

Lol because foreigners aren't known for being scammers.

I'm worried people are going to start going after burnt out employees thinking they're over employed because it looks the same from the outside and there's no way to prove a negative. I don't think anyone has the morals

The derivatives market means it's much more like a "real fiat" currency than it used to be. That's why there's so little insane volatility these days.

Martin Shkreli has been spending the past month or so on Discord streaming himself doing literally exactly that.

Heh. Qwen3 still works on my machine.

That would be a different (forked) currency then.

Is this why Martin Shkreli quit streaming? Did he actually crack them?

I was under the impression that a ton of their sales growth last quarter was actually from consumers. DC sales growth was way lower than I expected.

Make a mechanical keyboard with a small Linux SBC that supports display port over USB-C so we can use it with our AR glasses. Bonus points if it has a battery.

Yeah Brazil's issue isn't that it isn't taxing its people enough. As usual these things always just go after the middle class and sort people into destitute vs rich buckets. IE they exacerbate inequality.

Yes Spain and Brazil are both countries we should try to emulate. Absolutely great places to live, especially if you're young. Bright futures.

Sssh. They don't want to hear it. It won't bother those of us who don't live there and they'll figure it out in a few years.
