I’m happy to review other data if you have it! I’m not at all suggesting that the United States’s history isn’t fucked. I would suggest, though, that many people recognize that there are tradeoffs and having a single global superpower provi

You can see my other comment in the thread calling out the US support of various genocides, including Palestine specifically. So, no, I’m not writing a pro-Apartheid apology.

It’s in the US’s best interests to be a rule follower. It maintains our status as a global reserve currency. It gives our passports access to almost every country without visas. It attracts foreign investment. As a US citizen, it is incredi

As an American, this is awesome to see. We should pay penalties for our abandonment of good faith global engagement. And economic damage really is the key to the heart of these United States of Three Corporations in a Trench Coat. We’ve see

It’s also a way of getting people to read things about the subject that they otherwise wouldn’t. I read a lot of philosophy because it was relevant to a paper I was writing, but wasn’t assigned to the entire class.

Does it matter? They found 12 vulnerabilities. Clearly there was enough signal:noise that they could uncover these as real. It doesn't look like they had 1 AI run for 20 minutes and then 30 humans sift through for weeks.

I wish your recent interview had pushed much harder on this. It came across as politely not wanting to bring up how poorly this really went, even for what the engineer intended. They were making claims without the level of rigor to back the

Well I have watched the show adaptation of Shogun, which features authentic Japanese language, and enjoy the occasional Omakase (in Brooklyn), so I’d say I’m pretty qualified to comment on Japanese rail over the past sixty years.

The way they get to $12.5bn is multiplying the preferred share price by the total outstanding shares. But the common shares, while still included in that calculation, are not worth the same amount of money. They have a different strike pric

Yes, they do. They understand where their margins go and the fees on credit cards are a huge one. They simply don’t have much of a choice.

Employees get options at common stock prices. The valuations you see, like $12bn, are for preferred stock. So no employees got stock priced at $12bn, but all of them get paid at a $5.15bn valuation. Not saying they did well, but depending
