Does a good actor actually have a way to prove they are legit? This comment is a little pointless because almost anything that need your data needs you to trust them.

This has happened since banks started selling investment products, wealth managers simply pull up a list of cash heavy accounts who haven't opted out of marketing where they can pu…

No this doesn't work at all. As others have said, many companies will not let you set up an account or send SMS to numbers created this way.

I skipped to that part and almost closed the stream thinking I had clicked the wrong link, I was kinda annoyed someone passing of CG for the real stream, then I realised it was rea…

fwiw I dont think anyone you encounter on the street even notices skull shape, don't sweat it..

Unhinged sounds about right, the blog post started out normal but it became increasingly disconnected and unsubstantiated. It read like something someone on adderall would churn ou…

I just leave it in airplane mode

In my comment, I specifically said trading with cash. Easy to argue it was not arbitrary when there's a whale no one know about and the stock is obscure and the whale pays the brok…

https://www.finra.org/rules-guidance/rulebooks/finra-rules/5... Without such regulation what would stop any bad actor from colluding with brokers to halt trading a moments that ben…

There are a lot of brokers though

Yes obviously which is why OP is asking the question. And you aren't right, there are many games where there are objective scores or measures of skill like other have said golf, da…

Because success cannot be attributed to luck or skill, star traders could just be a result of survivorship bias, many are still unable to beat the market net of fees

In the article there isn't any discussion of cause and effect, it is a probabilistic model. Eg. being near a virus lab makes it more likely it's a lab escape, being 1000km away fro…

I don't think they are intended to

You are looking too much into this. The more people act on contrarian business ideas, the more longshot potential unicorns VCs can invest in. The seminal YC example is Airbnb, lett…

For companies like banks, the transition is the riskiest part. For management, there is no upside in such projects since the system already works, but downsides are project failure…

Your firm pays his company $216k a year. He probably sees 1/3 to 1/2 of that, maybe less. I'm not in software but that seems low doesn't it

Not surprising given the product... Almost all analytical tracking/telemertry will be blocked, Google Analytics etc.

This is great. There are few good and truly free alternatives. Been through a few with in-app purchases to limit the number of hands and bloated with ads. Now I can play with frien…

For context, Singapore has a team of 20 that can call contacts of confirmed cases, they are able to make 4000 calls a day. Those in contact with confirmed cases are made to a manda…

I don't think anyone trusts Google enough. They can help by providing governments with anonymized data they already have. Immediately what comes to mind is identifying to governmen…

This is like the movie Parasite where the two poorer groups struggle against each other below the rich. Making 76k a month, the creators here will take 1096 years to make 1 billion…

And also getting all the critical comments

Think POs, procurement, payables, receivables, treasury and inventory management etc. Is following what Toyota does strange?

What else are they gonna choose? Even SAP implementations fail, it's $10-100m project. Execs are not going to go for slightly better software to increase the risk of blowing throug…
