I wouldn't make any conclusions yet given that they haven't recovered the wreckage yet. That being said, ultralight glider technology is actually really good. It is plausible with ultralight materials you could build a car-sized t

I agree the videos are thoroughly debunked as being aliens, but there still are credible reports that navy/air force see craft observing them periodically. That doesn't have to be aliens for the reports to be true. e.g. The video

Lots of answers point to the user experience of Medium becoming worse. This misses the bigger picture: the economics of free blog hosting don't work. V1 of Medium was great because they weren't concerned with monetization. The pro

Yeah this is another one I was thinking of, that early projects in a tech adoption cycle are completed faster than later ones, because they are simpler and the benefit more obvious. I wonder if anyone has studied this.

Kurzweil did most of the work to popularize the idea of the Singularity through a series of books (and related speaking tours) in the 90s/2000s. The title of your essay, "The Singularity is Close?" appeared to be a play on th

There's no actual new theory here, just the same ideas Kurzweil said in the late 90s re-hashed. It's pure conjecture when AGI will actually happen. GPT-3 and Transformers are impressive but still many orders of magnitude away from

Collison's theories page nudges the reader to look at "red tape" as an explanation for why things go slower these days, but I think there are hidden variables behind a lot of these which are simpler explanations. First is the

There's a lot of work that hasn't been done yet in studying what causes automation from an economics point of view. A common thought experiment is "Why hasn't fast food been automated?" We certainly have the technol

I can't believe the 7/8ths rule isn't a bigger story than it is. Insanely undemocratic. I wouldn't vote for any bill that included that stipulation.

Actually, I remember reading at the time that the "We promise it won't create black-holes" narrative came from the PR department of the lab itself to draw attention to their work. It was very successful.

This is unclear to me too. Maybe by "exclusive" they mean: exclusive from other big-tech companies? The pricing page has not disappeared on my beta.

Gemini is probably the best one, code-quality wise. Agreed, the way the trading-pair-to-exchange relationship works right now is imperfect. It's ripe for a good refactor.

It's possible CCXT could be used to easily wrap other exchanges into gryphon. I'm not familiar with the library so hard to guess if it would be a net win or not.

If you want to restrict the definition of HFT to only sub-millisecond strategies you're correct. But then, all HFT is impossible in crypto, since with web request latency and rate limits, it would be very difficult to get tick speeds e

Shouldn't be, you just need to write a wrapper for the exchange API with the interface defined in 'gryphon.lib.exchange.exchange_api_wrapper'. I'll add an article to the docs with more about that soon.
