I like betting because I find it fun to quantify probabilities of future events, and having a ~small amount of money at stake keeps me motivated to follow through on whether I was right.
I do think there are positive EV bets to be had on prediction markets though, they are mosty not efficient.
I like betting myself, but I don't think abstaining from betting is maladaptive at all. Most of the bets we encounter in the real world are negative EV.
I'm mostly surprised that someone can so consistently and repeatedly demonstrate an inability to filter information he receives and still be trusted with LPs' money. It's another form of Gell-Mann amnesia.
Enjoyable read, but kind of ironic that it interrupts your reading half way down to nag you to subscribe. Everything is an overcrowded airport lounge, indeed.
I’m a fan of all three, but my mindset is that I’m not just paying for raw infrastructure, I’m paying for the engineering work I don’t have to do when I use them.
Good find, but worth noting that this is accusing him of front-running when what he actually did was dumber and more criminal: using FTX customer deposits to cover losses on the Alameda side.
Your implication is that cyclists who don’t want to be close-passed are wimps who shouldn’t be on the road. You used the term “safe space”, which is usually pejorative. My point is that those cyclists are braver than the drivers who wouldn’t be on the road without a protective, climate-controlled bubble (their vehicle).
I worry that the Facebook association is actually holding back VR. I know a few people who have expressed interest in an Oculus headset, but for the Facebook association. But the amount of capital Facebook is throwing after it surely makes other vendors hesitant to compete.
For one thing, I’m unlikely to download a native copy of Doom to run on my own machine from a strange website. The ability to run cross-platform code that uses my GPU in a secure sandbox is pretty neat to me.
If an extension is open source, there are usually already some eyes on the GitHub codebase. If an extension version is pinned to a git hash, all those eyes could potentially spot that something is amiss.
I've been telling everyone who will listen[1][2][3] that as an extension developer, I'd love to be able to guarantee through the Chrome App Store that an extension matches a git commit (or auditable build pipeline artifact) exactly.
It wouldn't fix everything (for example, you could still put a payload in an innocent-looking dependency), but it would at least fix the blatant problem that a maintainer can add code when uploading an extension even if the extension itself is open source and therefore (appears to be) auditable.
This is why I'm so cynical about the Zuckerberg's stated stance on “free expression”. You can't go around positioning yourself as if you're the last bastion of free speech online[1] and then turn around and block large swathes of indie content because they are hosted on a particular domain.
It seems to have been a combination of a traffic surge and a third-party API being temporarily slow. The slow API meant that I ended up paying for more idle CPU time during the request round-trip.
