Do you have a guess as to what percentage of all volume is driven by hedging by options market makers?

It's just a numbers game, there's more Dems here (probably 4:1 given the industry demographic) and so you lose the popularity contest on a topic like this which stokes tribal senti…

Exactly, and no Dem ever gets deplatformed for these incessant lies that lead to violence and death. Shows you it's all an excuse to purge Republicans (liars though they may be)

It's especially reasonable when we're talking about changes in BMI instead of levels regarding a population. That can only be driven by the population getting fatter.

Wouldn't people have said the same thing about Hitler after the failed Beer Hall Putsch? I think Trump's allure is going to mostly survive this event, he will figure out a way to b…

I believe there's also a neurological basis as well. It's been shown that belief in superstition is predicted by dopamime levels in the brain. Likely same for conspiracy theory bel…

The person you responded to is largely correct, despite your aggressive tone. While AWS will act on anything that's reported, they are well known to do absolutely nothing in additi…

Nobody is arguing that these platforms don't have a legal right to do what they've done. The only debate is about what they ought to do, and whether the laws should be changed as a…

Nonsense. A former Democratic staffer employed by Facebook censored the breaking news story about Hunter Biden's laptop on the eve of the election which we now know to be factually…

From China. Sanctions don't necessarily mean ceasing all trade.

> telling you it's not censorship and they are technically correct No, they are technically incorrect. As other posters have pointed out, it literally is censorship. Whether a priv…

> choosing not to amplify the voices of people that have proven themselves capable of and prone to violence Then why not ban Twitter as well? I could show you hundreds of tweets fr…

Flying on 9/11/2001 was "mostly safe" because less than 96% of flights were hijacked. Also a true statement, but ridiculous. The BLM riots resulted in 19 dead, and thousands of pro…

I'm going off my experience with doctors that I know personally. There's definitely a personality type or an attitude there that shuts them off to things that a layperson will brin…

There's many bitcoin derivative exchanges which allow you to short, in addition to the CME's contract. Bitmex, Huobi, etc.

> After asking five different doctors about it, one finally agreed to prescribe it. Were the other four too lazy/orthodox to read the papers you're referencing? Or they read the pa…

The upside of your proposal is that it'll create a very strong disincentive for this kind of behavior. But if we really can't attribute blame to specific individuals, your proposal…

It is absolutely not a fallacy, as Naval Ravikant points out, given the large numbers of slippery slopes that have played out in the historical record. I have no idea why the belie…

Put it all into a California high speed rail. That'll do it, economic justice has been achieved.

TSLA has a P/E ratio of 1500. Even though they're a growth stock it's a generous valuation to say the least. The stock price has been driven up by (1) a lot of retail investors loa…

> Do you think that he wouldn't have done what he has done if there was a wealth tax in the US? Maybe he would've left the country and tried to build something elsewhere. If he did…

Bitcoin is one of the rare instruments with inverted skew in its options i.e. volatility is higher when the price is going up. So we would expect outages to be more correlated with…

> Stood back and people show their anger, then move on with our lives -- message heard-- with minimal injury and damage. Disagree on that point. Allowing riots creates a lot of ang…
