Opacity in price discovery as an objective in a commodity business is definitely an insightful framing of the issue. Although the airline industry can be considered a commodity industry, the airline rewards miles industry is less so. What t

Google is a domain registrar since 2005 [0]. But that service was launched for public use in 2015. Before that though, Google used third parties (mainly Enom and GoDaddy) to provide domain registration for the public. [0] https://

They make it incredibly difficult to manage domains. DNS is managed via a third party like enom. Enom itself just had an outage recently that affected all G Suite users [0]. Transferring your domain to another registrar is opaque to say the

That looks like a good read. It has been added to the queue for a proper dive. A cursory look at the explanations reminds me of some of the finer eli5 answers. This definitely warrants a reassessment of how judges can handle technical techn

Whether this has merit is not dependent on the quality of this article. Whether this likely sticks depends largely on the willingness of the judge to delve into the details of auctions. Whether it actually sticks is not necessarily a reflec

That is an interesting take. But censorship is just one dimension. Propaganda is the other dimension. And if you substitute propaganda for advertising, and acknowledge that advertising can impact preferences, then surely propaganda can impa

It seems difficult to even have a discussion about CCP China in an open speech framework found outside of CCP China. The HN moderation on anything related to CCP China highlights this point [0]. If you cannot properly talk about the institu

It would be interesting to see if he ultimately accepts 'Novax' Djokovic as a rigidly defined part of his identity. The more this drags on publicly, the less face-saving opportunities for him to accept vaccination.

Thanks for the clarification. At the very least, the requirement for Djokovic to quarantine might mess with the timing. He might not be able to train right after arriving.

Do you not need to prove vaccination to enter France if you are not a French or EU citizen? Or is the exception only for athletes? Even if a visa is granted, authorities can revoke it at any time as highlighted in Australia.

Will Novak Djokovic face the same consequences when playing other tournaments of the grand slam in the USA, UK, and France? Presumably, he is not a citizen of any of these countries. So he does not have right of entry.

My comment is at the top of this thread. So naturally, I have made a genuine effort to reply to replies. You constantly try to debase the conversation. Someone even reposted your comments to highlight how disingenuous your comments are [0].

You need to factor in time horizons. Things can be inconsequential for a while and then become very consequential. Yes, in the short term, there are consequences in China for Intel in terms of speaking out against slave concentration camps.

The term slavery is used in the correct way. It is not only labor rights that are denied in Xinjiang but every other right. Uyghurs essentially have no rights. Slaves have no rights. Therefore, Uyghurs in Xinjiang can be considered slaves.

This comment seems in earnest. So I will assume, as a non native English speaker, you have probably heard the expression "that I feel like a slave at work". This is not what is meant by slave in this context. It is not a feeling.

Do you have data on the quantity of chips rather than overall revenue? You claim this figure is meaningless. In the absence of reliable data, we can make a reasonable assumption, perhaps flawed, that revenue is matched by quantity of chips
