There’s a funny amount of beef around using it in art, you have Anish Kapoor who bought exclusive rights to use Vantablack artistically and man of the people Stuart Semple offering his versions Black 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 getting ever blacker.

to call this outcome unrealistic, now or in the future seems incorrect as there is already a thriving pay for kidney trade.

it’s fair to say there would be great advances from such a programme, I’m personally in favour of medical surveillance generally for this reason but you have to be realistic about outcomes

This could be customized to each child, a primer if you will, you could call it “a young lady’s illustrated primer” for the girls

Not sure how this doesn’t seem to get more attention. Sensitive queries can undoubtedly end up flagged and eventually in front of a human, apparently with the capability to then explore all other submissions from you.

fair number of people do this, bunch of free tools to filter by this criteria (brand new account, more than $xx,xxx size), vulnerable to spoofing obviously

Had a bizarre situation for a while where they had physical branches in Texas, could deliver care, but couldn’t take card payments for years. Medical bills could be paid but the actual subscription couldn’t be. They asked for a cheque. Support promised they wouldn’t pursue the charge until they could take card payments. Obviously they reneged (even with the above statement in writing) and sent it to collections.

Maybe I’m out of touch, but doesn’t a $1.4b dollar settlement for this seem rather… large?

I’m perpetually having to take apart and clean the carbs of a 2003 motorbike because of the added Ethanol in fuel nowadays.

I don’t think this idea is that controversial? Most (?) people would agree watching YouTube 16 hrs a day is bad, but agree there is also a benefit to some of the content available.

That’s cumulative liquidity available on the right hand side.

i.e the ~13k shown at 99c and ~12k show at 98c aren’t independent. If the 12k is taken at 98c, only 1k would be left avail at 99c.

You’re right if you wanted to hold the price there it would cost you more, however if there isn’t a straight arb, maybe not instantly, and (some) smart bettors might be wary of such a market going to near 100%

I can push that market to 100% with 10k usd so I wouldn’t weight that too strongly as evidence, although I agree on the tariffs part.
