>I'm sorry, I'm not understanding your line of thinking. What is an extreme example? And this explains what (I'm referring to "because....")?

Sorry, can you state your original question more clearly? It seems obvious to me which is the extreme example I was referring to, and how it answers your question -- besides, I even quoted the part I was replying to.

You asked about how "the phenomenon of why actual (dictionary) nationalism has become synonymous with racism/Nazism" could be addressed.

My answer is that the reason actual (dictionary) nationalism has become synonymous with racism/Nazism is because Nazism was an extreme example of nationalism, and people tend to use extreme examples when discussing a phenomenon.

Plus, racism/Nazism have very ugly connotations, so it makes sense to associate nationalism with those phenomena, in an era when nationalism is in disfavor in favor of globalization.

>No disagreement here, but if this is the case, are people simply unable to see this in themselves? Do they intuitively (as seems to be the case) know not to reply to any questions that might broach that particular possibility?

Yes.
> How does Robinhood make money?

> With Robinhood Gold, you get up to 2x your buying power and access to after hours trading for as little as $6 per month. This is the only product Robinhood charges you for, and is completely optional. Trading is still commission free.

> Additionally, Robinhood earns revenue by collecting interest on the cash and securities in Robinhood accounts, much like a bank collects interest on cash deposits.

They are selling Robinhood Gold's extra features, but I bet they make much more on the interest in deposits. If I recall this was their initial path to profitization.

That was great, thanks.

Yup.

A couple of further thoughts:

1. To me, one of the more important aspects of my time in construction is that it showed me my physical and mental limits. And I think it is only by locating the extremes that we are able to accurately place the locations between the extremes.

2. I think most men need something that marks the passage from childhood to adulthood. Something which they can point to which was hard, which required toughness to overcome, and which was witnessed by others. IMO a right of passage like this is sorely lacking now that most people grow up without having done hard work on a farm.

1) Cash (from users) can be loaned out for a small return

2) Individual investor flow is good flow. Trading companies pay for this flow. Uncertain whether robinhood does this, but (all?) other Joe-Shmo facing brokerages do.
Interesting that they don't mention payment for order flow. From what I've read, that's major way in which they make income.

Note that most (almost all?) retail brokerages accept payment for order flow, i.e. getting paid to direct their order flow to certain firms for order execution.

For example, these are the firms that TD Ameritrade receives payment for order flow from:

> because they'd be required to collect and process personal information digitally, and they would be likely advised to not do so without defining the terms under which that information would be used.

That's absurd. First, they should only collect the information they need to provide a replacement product. Second, they should only use that information to provide a replacement product. That would be the right thing to do, regardless of how anti-consumer the laws in whatever countries are.

> The checkout process requires consent to their terms.

You can't arbitrarily weaken people's rights via terms in most civilized countries. So if that was the only way to get a replacement, I don't think it'd be too difficult to make a case that the terms are null and void. Certainly in Germany, additional terms such as EULAs are invalid if presented after the purchase.

---

However, while the store might have been the most convenient way to get a replacement, I don't know if it was the only way. If they made it clear in the email that there were other ways to get a replacement, well then it's still a shitty move by marketing and ethically questionable, but probably legally okay.
>I simply find it very unlikely that an onomatopoeia would spontaneously achieve word quality with suffixes

Why would you say that? There are countless directly onomatopoetic words (names of animals, natural phenomena etc) in all languages, including English, and I suspect that the deeper you look the more you'll find. How would word roots be invented in the first place if not through onomatopoeia or at least as ideophones?

> any thoughts on alternate editors to emacs that also work with org-mod

emacs is the roll roice when it comes to org documents but out of it is perfectly fine, it's like editing markdown documents. I created a web version of orgmode that has quite a few of the goodies from the original orgmode: https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/nuage/wiki/Org-Mode

spaceemacs is emacs + some stuff. It's like choosing ubuntu over arch linux, the only difference is the flavoring. Personally I'm a purist so I only go with the original version.

And that’s on top of the main problem: tracking people without their knowledge, approval or a court order is just flat-out wrong. The fact that it can be done is no excuse. Nor is the monstrous sum of money made by it.

I use Piwik (https://github.com/matomo-org/matomo) and track visitors without their knowledge or consent, because I need analytics. Piwik is also configured to respect the "Do not track" header, so opting out is as easy as indicating that you don't wish to be tracked.

Is that wrong?

And I use Piwik precisely because it's self-hosted. I know for a fact your data doesn't get sold, because the data never hits any server except mine.

If this seems acceptable, it's also why legislation seems worrisome. There are a lot of corner cases that law tends to overlook. But hopefully the requirements won't be too onerous.

>Since tracking people took off in the late ’00s, adtech has grown to become a four-dimensional shell game played by hundreds (or, if you include martech, thousands) of companies, none of which can see the whole mess, or can control the fraud, malware and other forms of bad acting that thrive in the midst of it.

Fraud? Malware? What does this have to do with adtech?

>And that’s on top of the main problem: tracking people without their knowledge, approval or a court order is just flat-out wrong. The fact that it can be done is no excuse. Nor is the monstrous sum of money made by it.

What a compelling argument /s. Is it wrong if I sit on my porch and record in a notebook the hair color of different people? Is it wrong if I observe that one of my coworkers has a Harley Davidson sticker on his laptop?

There is no AdTech bubble given that Adtech is a completely viable business model. These laws may shut down third party trackers but Ads are here to stay. If the EU ads were to create regulation such that Ads become an inviable business model they would simply tank their own economy given how many services/ content creators rely on ads.

edit: also I have to laugh since I was downvoted less than 20 seconds after posting. I'll post another statement that will make people mad

Ads are the reason the web is open and the reason poor people have free access to information. An ad free web is a web that only rich people can use.
Recall when you first learned how to program. Something as trivial as iterating through a list requires some thought. What is the syntax for a "for" loop? Do you start with i = 0 or i = 1? Should you end at i < n or i <= n? At some point you stop thinking about it and write "for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)" instinctively. You can now solve harder problems that require iterating through a list without thinking about it.

All of algorithms and programming is like this. You unlock harder problems as you learn more problem solving building blocks (whether it's an algorithm, a software design pattern, or some API call). A programmer is someone who can learn these on the fly for any problem of any domain. An effective programmer is someone who has a large cache preloaded with these building blocks already.

In that sense I find leetcode style problems to be very fair. They are meant to be solvable in under an hour without thinking once cached into muscle memory. All it is testing is whether you're capable of becoming an effective programmer in some agnostic domain. All you need to do is warm your cache with a small number of standard patterns (which might even be useful for real work). It does suck that even the good programmers need a few weeks to warm their cache. But it weeds out the fakers who can't do it given any amount of time.

It's somewhat similar to that.

Assume you are a market maker - you make money off of the bid-ask spread. Specifically, you supply liquidity by issuing standing orders: To buy at the bid, and sell at the ask.

For a market maker, you typically want the price to "stable", and you set your bid/ask to reflect the current order flow supply/demand - this is the "equilibrium" price.

When prices are volatile, your risk is greater. Typically, market makers have to maintain some position in the securities they transact in, and if they don't effectively hedge this position and the price moves against them, they could take big losses.

The optimal condition for a market maker is to have supply and demand balanced, and unchanging. Then you can simply make money off the bid-ask spread without much risk. (All else being equal, having fast access, i.e. HFT, and fast processing systems to detect upcoming likely prices changes also helps)

Market makers are worried about adverse selection; that is, if a huge buy order comes into them, they are worried that the buyer knows more about the price of the security than they do. If they sell to them, the price could subsequently increase, and they could take a loss. (The same applies for a big sell order)

That is why they would prefer not to transact on the open market - i.e. the exchange. It's difficult to tell who are the informed traders.

Instead, they would rather transact against "uninformed" traders. "Uninformed" here does not imply "stupid", but rather just implies that, on average, these traders don't possess any special information or any more information than they do.

In the optimal sense, market makers would prefer to transact against an order flow that is unbiased; one example of this would be an order flow where there are equal numbers of buy and sell orders.

This is why market making firms pay for retail order flow. Retail order flow is assumed to be uninformed, and therefore unbiased relative to the information that the market makers themselves have. Being able to transact against retail order flow thus gives them a relatively unbiased order flow from which they can profit off of the bid-ask spread with much lower risk.

I mean, this is certainly plausible, but I don't think it's that simple. There are all sorts of examples of degrees of one thing or another, yet is there any other example where a major portion of the public suddenly lost all perspective to the degree that they believe things that are literally incorrect (and mock those who are not)? It's not just that people are exaggerating things, the fundamental beliefs are such that it is considered not possible for a nationalist to not be a racist, if not worse. Rarely are such outrageous and objectively false claims challenged, and frequently any challenge is downvoted to net negative.

> Cloud Foundry certainly doesn't market itself for that kind of deployment.

Historically customers of Pivotal, IBM, etc focused on high availability requirements, which requires more machines. I've seen the default deployment for megacorps and it is, essentially, "bring all your dollars". But that is what they want -- no single points of failure. That means multiple VMs for everything. In fact it usually means multiple AZs for everything -- every component replicated thrice in at least two widely separated locations.

Even so, we've done work to split the difference. There's a "small footprint" version of PCF which is 4-9 VMs depending on how much risk you feel like taking. There's also cfdev if you just want to kick tires.

For the rest I can point to this and that. Service brokers for stuff like the DNS, traffic is directed by Gorouter or TCPRouter currently (with plans to switch to Istio), backups by BOSH Backup & Restore (BBR), running on raw hardware if the provider uses RackHD or can give you a BOSH Cloud Programming Interface (CPI).

BOSH is probably where you'd need to make your deepest peace. It has a very emphatic model of operations, which is that you are building a distributed system from known-good states, so individual machines are there solely to be paved whenever necessary. BOSH manages everything down to the operating system on the machine. You give it keys to an API that can provision compute, disks and networks and it will do the rest.

The uniform node thing would be tricky and my hunch is that, requiring a bunch of de novo engineering, would be less reliable on average than current arrangements.

Replying to instead of editing my original comment, for posterity:

From this article, it appears that they do not currently take payments for order flow:

Originally, Robinhood planned to make money off of order flows – a common tactic used by discount brokerages in the 199﻿0s to generate revenue. According to the company's FAQ, Robinhood backpedaled on the idea because it executes orders through a clearing partner and, as a result, receives little to no payment for order flow. The company is willing to return to its original plan in the future if it receives order flows directly or begins to generate a lot of revenue from them.

Definitely surprised by this; I assume that if they did take payment for order flow, that they would be required to disclose this due to some SEC rules, so I'll take it at face value.
