If only there was a way to get things only when you need, like trading.

Maybe it is a dangerous idea. You could be snooping on them for all they know. A little truth never hurts.

So social credit scores?

What will you do to maintain it?

MBA-run sweatshops.

Not only that, it is the whole point of terrorism, to trigger psychological bugs in humans relating to risk assessment.

So it is somebody's job to sell to the public, but it may not be the researchers'.

Are you sure a human, never mind one of below average intelligence, gets this? We have people right now in Silicon Valley calling for renaming CS words because they sound racist to them.

Is it more complex than a text classifier though? If it truly took into account who is commenting, and context, etc., it would have noticed very few chess videos were being flagged for what seemed like racist language. It seems more than

Aren't residential prices controlled by the public utility commission? So probably not immediately. But if CA utilities buy on the wholesale market and can't raise rates then they may go bankrupt.

The point is that waves are inherent in the description, whether it's complex numbers or amplitude + phase.

This is a misunderstanding of QM. Probability isn't what's unusual, it's the Born rule and the fact that the world doesn't use probability laws over real numbers but over complex numbers. That's what gives waves som

1TB? Isn't it more like 12-64GB?

Your balance of probabilities relies entire on priors. It's kind of useless and particularly uninformative.

That's the abuse of monopoly part.

Baby steps. It's not the magnitude but the attitude.

In the long future: total loss of privacy and identity as meaningful concepts.

The problem isn't so much the wick itself but the concentration increase of salts over time as water-soluble chemicals are introduced at seemingly small levels each time. I suppose with proper monitoring it can be managed, but doesn&#x

So when the water evaporates you get salt precipitates all over the wick, and more and more over time?

But that's with the measures taken.

That's my hypothesis for how homo sapiens goes extinct -- becoming ever more dependent on nature-shaping or external machinery to augment weakened selection pressure, but very fragile to sudden changes and always fighting fires.

They did something wrong, like giving everyone a margin account without asking, when they didn't have enough capital to do so. It is in their business model that this would happen. They were just quite cavalier about it!

The fix is to slow it down at the egress, not within the system.

Retail traders with directionality can drive the market even with small volume, because non-directional volume will amplify them.

"Gamestop" is a string of letters. Unless it has a pile of unrestructurable liabilities, what's forcing it to become bankrupt vs. being a startup?

Sure the collateral holders pay up. But if they need to get liquidated to service the debt, watch out.

It is both, they need to help themselves and help customers who would be harmed if Robinhood had gone under suddenly. An orderly unwinding is better for everyone.

Aren't finance nerds the same as tech nerds these days?

Doesn't regular Robinhood require settled cash to trade? Edit: Nope, looks like Robinhood "Instant" is now the default, margin account, but still limited to $1000 per account: https://robinhood.com/us/en&
