    There are pre-ipo tokens, which are a bet on the price at ipo and proved accurate fit SpaceX (lots of caveats here). Anyway we can see it as a prediction market where the price may…

    I think citymapper tried to execu this as a pivot. They had an idea to do it in London and other countries and did trial it for a while. Not sure why it (presumably) failed. I'd no…

    Sorry, typo, I meant to ask 'what'. Agree there are tropes in llm outputs, specific and strangely not specific to a vendor. Very useful for recognising generated content. I was hop…
