>This is almost off-topic. Skip if that bugs you

No, you're completely on topic : the phenomenon you describe of privatised systematic perpetrator defensive hurdles is called self regulation, which is precisely what SBF was most avidly lobbying for.

That's very quick.

My memory is a little hazy, but the fast prosecution was motivated by covering up structural inefficiencies in CA energy trading created knowingly against considerable objections by politicians, that Enron abused, and not the a priori fraud of propping up their stock for dozens of quarters to be able to trade so massively in the first place.

Edit : to clarify, politicians created structural inefficiency in the California grid, in the name of deregulation, specifically Govenor Pete Wilson and California Legislature AB 1890 of 1996.

>I'm certain each party felt they could swindle the other.

There's a reason trader turrets handsets and boxes have high resistance non latching push to talk switches. Because both sides of every deal think the other sides just that in the most regulated markets and otc / "self reg" alike.

Exactly, precisely, it's theft not fraud. You can't accuse any of the cockamamie nonsense this inflated and instrumental child concocted of being as sophisticated as fraud. For that you have to look at his sponsors and their patronage.

In another front page discussion is what looks like a emerging consensus that grand larceny like the FTX theft is a function of the non existent fact checking of the media.

What possible motivation could exist for establishing a online reference using the media as the canonical and sole source of truth?

Remember that the SEC exists because a bankrupt banking sector begged the government to give them a fig leaf. If you aren't sure who they serve, go looking for a punitive fine that's been levied and distributed to any victims of financial crime. Gensler appears to have skin in this FTX game personally, natch.

After Glass- Steagal was repealed, structural conflicts of interest putting the totality of supposedly safe deposits at the service of gambling has been standard operating procedure for the street and hence the country.

It's speed already.

Intel is offering customer silicon on their latest architecture. So you could be ambitious and design your own block with as much SRAM as you can sacrifice other accelerator units for, depending on routing latency.

Edit: customer not custom, small difference but important if you're asking..

Because unless you're tall enough (and quick enough) to dunk like you're dropping it, lower angles give you more opportunity to underspin off the board getting the net more often.

Each of your two caricatures exhibit obsessive traits that should be disqualifications for any multivariate layered and strategic responsibility.

In my working life I've found, in balanced environments that your exception proves the rule, but I don't personally consider the start-up and tech capitalism economy balanced.

This is my favourite ever episode of This American Life, about NUMMI, the shop floor level and individually fraternal miracle that was created by workers at Toyota and GM in a CA GM plant, until management shut them down:

Instead, how much would it cost for the IRS to check everyone's returns reconciliation against employer statements?

Removing the audit trail and reporting from accounts probably turns this into theft according to the definition of the intention to permanently deprive, which forethought hence mens rea is satisfied by plural compounding acts of concealment.

Much of the apparent distortion in post 83 tracks is caused by the horizontal alignment of near field monitors beginning with the Yamaha NS-10 popularity. Realignment is a octagonal problem.

Edit: just try swivelling your earbuds 90 degrees..

Recording engineer here of the same age as the OP: perceived (spectrum summed) volume and associated hearing loss is proportional to the level of distortion (not simple noise) in the signal. I get freaked by footsteps a hundred yards behind me on the sidewalk at night. Fix your mix levels for better hearing.

Edit: lift the noise floor in your print to mask undesirable signal path snr harmonics. This is the technique employed (very non exclusively in this example) by state of the art DACs such as in the CH 1.5 disc player.
