Isn't Credit Suisse the bank that laundered and legitimized all the money from the drug cartels? They kept getting slaps on the wrist for a bunch of atrocities and bad choices and now finally they are seeing some repercussions of those

This is good. Thanks for the r pointer. Didn’t know they produce a report like this.

Is the economic justification for the project available anywhere to read?

This has a very ominous inevitable tone to it. I question how wise it is to even publish an article with this tone given how grave the consequences of such a war would be. Just reading the title sent a chill for me. Any war like that will p

As someone that is not following this as closely as I would like, does the collapse of this bank have nothing to do with FTX and Crypto?

Why is this obsession with decentralized? I don’t see the benefits of it at all. A central server is better if they have a good moderation plan built in. This whole decentralized idea is to wash their hands off moderation and not take a bla

This is a very interesting situation. Generally at startups, is there no room to negotiate to get RSUs instead of options? What is the reason they give options instead of options? They want to reduce the amount of stock people own that no l

Google had a problem, it couldn’t think outside of the search box. They had so much technology but they tried to fit everything behind that search box. Now they are scrambling to figure out a plan to counter chat gpt, which truly poses a th

I never saw any use for voice assistants for most of the population. Yes, there are a few tasks in the kitchen that can be automated like setting a timer but that didn’t need the huge server side infrastructure they built out. Just the NLP

This is 10yrs late. Messages is not a texting clone anymore. I don't see why this makes sense.

Yeah subpar reviews don’t mean more layoffs are coming. The article is just trying to reach. Even after they laid off they still have to grade on a curve.

There are good and bad parts about the media, just like everything else. Unfortunately the current political landscape just accentuates the bad and just hammers it down into people's minds. The perception that media is biased is more i

These sensors can only estimate based on what passes through them. So is it a good enough approximation for the whole room let alone the whole house? I get it that the very presence of some particles at some density will tell a story. Since

Because this is BBC the government is forced to stop at intimidation and using legal means too. There are simply way too many global eyes on the incident. Prior to this government, the media was largely free to do anything they want. Modi

This is weird, I just had this conversation the other day and wrote a comment in another google story on HN that sundar is not doing a good job and will be replaced soon. They need someone that can turn around GCP and productize their self

The writing is on the wall. Sundar hasn’t done anything but maintain the status quo at Google. That is a loss for google, particularly GCP didn’t gain any market share, couldn’t productize their self driving car platform effectively, the ad

Do we have international agreement about what constitutes sovereign space in the sky and what doesn’t? I mean at what height does it make it not okay to shoot down an object another country sent up? Is it at the height of the low orbit sate

I don’t get this, that dumb robot got trained and so is doing the job. There are some fundamental building blocks that every human needs to be trained in. We can question what these building blocks are but never apply a blanket statement th

At this point do we just have to expect all the other companies that haven’t announced layoffs will also do so?

I know the general view is middle management sucks and I can see asking first level managers to become ICs may make sense in some cases, but that also means someone else is managing x times the number of employees. How is that supposed to s

I can confidently say nothing is going to change. People will forget this soon. There will be new companies and new “geniuses” and people will blindly pledge allegiance. It’s not meant to be disparaging, people always want to align with goo

The most interesting part is unless someone is monitoring for this no one will ever even know it’s behaving in this way. We cannot be sure that a monitoring software will be able to find all the “bugs” or out of order behavior.

Why do companies offer only 2yrs of identity protection coverage for breaches? There are tons of these happening and so people can wait a couple of years to use them if it's going to be less of a hassle. Ofcourse, I don't trust th

Teachers are already paid little and dealing with the stress of managing large classrooms with little pay has to be turning off a lot of teachers away from that career path. With laws like this our future pipeline of teachers is essentially

Advertising revenue fell because of Elon's new "extreme right wing beyond conspiracy theories" stance. It is not because of the sales staff not responding to emails.

What is the argument against BNPL? It’s like credit cards isn’t it? Instead of borrowing from credit card companies some folks are borrowing from the BNPL companies. Is the worry that these people are over extended? Is there over exuberance

Very interesting. Under normal circumstances this would be considered to be dire. It would mean water problems in the year. However the Ukraine war made it into a favorable condition.
