Am I crazy? This doesn't actually say anything about their guidance system? Just that its "genetic"? > In a groundbreaking new study published in the journal Science, researchers h…

I don't think you get the newcomer novelty buff when your val approaches 13 digits.

Not an argument I made. A summary of the argument OP was making.

This strikes me as bluster. You use Anthropic because they offer the best model, if China offered a better model you would use them. You’re trying to signal that you deserve Anthro…

Yes, people misread this to read “only physical sims”. The sim tray is useless in 2023 imo, but their phones are stuck w/ them because of laws that aren’t keeping up. We’ll see how…

That day was years ago. You’re looking for airalo or a few other apps that sell data esims you can activate from your couch.

Yeah, we have two esims as well. More or less feature parity. No clue why anyone would want a sim card/tray in 2023. I’ve been working remote on 3 continents in the last year acros…

oh, maybe you have both? US iphones don’t have sim trays. Euro iphones do.

But they’re also stuck with physical sims because of those same laws. I vastly prefer the esim in the US iphone to the tray.

I haven’t really used any of them, but my belief is that the USG wouldn’t have sanctioned TornadoCash if it didn’t work.

I think you are projecting your beliefs onto them. Mixers, privacy chains, and ZK privacy schemes have all been implemented because everyone in crypto acknowledges the lack of priv…

Rust is also huge in crypto. It’s the DSL or inspired the DSL for a few chains and there is a lot of Rust work happening on Ethereum.

Yes, I mean it would be absurd to argue that there isn’t more systemic risk in crypto markets. The question I keep pointing at though is, why does it matter? These are not retail t…

Right, my point is that the allegedly “protected” parties in this case would still be able to trade with Binance if Binance were licensed.

> So enlighten me, what is the actual $$$ threshold where "terrorist financing" can be deemed a legitimate complaint? It seems reasonable to at least set the lower bound above Deut…

> I suppose you could argue about whether the CFTC's relevant regulations protect anyone, but they certainly think they do, and if so it's easy to argue that Binance was skirting t…

Honest question, given that it says ad — why would this be illegal? Would the SEC claim that she was not good enough friends with the people who told her that to call them friends?…

> Even the US intelligence community trusts that Amazon isn’t spying on the spies I’m not sure what you mean by this, but it’s incorrect. Sensitive USG information is not processed…

You’re aware that ~$150B of $200B SVB deposits are not covered by FDIC insurance, correct? I don’t think SVB is going to end up 0, but pointing at 25% of investments being safe and…

Interestingly, the host was also violating AirBNBs terms of service and the author could have gotten a full refund if they realized. It’s against AirBNB’s ToS to charge a security …

Yeah, android trades browser ads for system wide tracking. I’m not really sure that’s a good deal.

Yeah, I mean you’ve more or less reiterated what I said. The hardware is very nice. And if you play a game where you calculate the hardware/$, the iPad pro makes sense. When you re…

So, 120hz is only on the 12.9. If it’s worth twice the price to you, that’s your decision. The apple pencil difference is magnetic charging and magnetic storage on the side of the …

What feature of the pro makes it worth $150 ($650 if you have the larger screen) more than the comparable iPad?

Ehh, Apple has some big misses. Their software objectively sucks. OS X has gotten buggier and slower over the years. I traded “it just works” for the speed and customization of lin…
