No, I evaluated their lack of a functioning moral framework to conclude they couldn't possibly perform a function in my organization because ethics are much more important than the ability to traverse directed graphs in pseudo-code on whiteboards.

I agree this is something to look for, but doing that with numbers alone makes you look like you had extremely narrow responsibilities, and probably shouldn’t be interacting with stakeholders anyway because you can’t use words like a normal person.
Leverage allows the execution of strategies that have a high Sharpe but low natural return.

I work at a small prop trading firm and we run 10x or even more leverage most of the time. Without leverage, we wouldn't be able to run the vast majority of our strategies.

Basically, leverage is immaterial: what matters is the risk of the strategy. A leveraged strategy could be less risky than an unleveraged one.

Things that you should consider when deciding leverage: beta exposure, correlation to the market, volatility of the strategy, and the risk adjusted return of the strategy.

A classic example of this is risk parity: risk parity uses high leverage but is often safer than a classic 60/40 portfolio.
• Constitutional rights are so commonly understood to be individualist that you see the same reasoning applied to justifying not wearing of masks. In reality the bill of rights is interpreted in a legal context that allows for collectivization of rights, but culturally there's a strong tie to individual liberty that I am shocked someone could deny with a straight face.

• You seem to be conflating collectivism with tribalism. Antagonistic and in/out group relations are not necessary for or equivalent to collectivization. Making the two agree is the whole point of "internationalism".

• Collectivization necessarily implies that the distribution of equity aligns with the needs of the collective. This is trivially false for all of the ways you've chosen to divvy up society into tribal groups except, I guess, catholicism vs protestantism (which I barely see as a dynamic here anyway).

More generally I think you are right, there are great instances of collectivization in the US: I'm not seeing them in your examples, though! The Postal Service, the Public School & Public Library culture are fantastic examples. Even the famously anti-socialist right can be quite collectivized if you look at how, economically, individuals distribute resources to their friends, family, community, "tribe", etc. Arguably many churches in American Christianity foster very collectivized approaches to resource distribution—I know I grew up working my church's food pantry....

However, if we as americans look in a mirror, we are trained to only see ourselves as individuals or part of small isolated groups or "tribes", not as a cell of some larger, functioning, rational, identifiable whole america.

It's reasonable for Apple to configure Macs to be safe "out of the box". But it's not clear why it helps you to prevent other Mac users from changing the defaults.

> The principle of sunlight is the best disinfectant has proven time and again to be true and the only people who argue against it are those being shown to be wrong under the light

I am a strong advocate for free speech, but I really think it is naive to believe that truth will always win no matter what. History is full of examples where propaganda and lies wins. I am not arguing for censorship, but I am arguing that we need to confront lies and propaganda with more than just platitudes about the truth winning out in the end.

The truth needs advocates.
There was a massive wave of phones being sold with unlocked bootloaders with preinstalled malware. How do you stop this? Unscrupulous retailers would buy thousands of your latest phone, root it and sell it for $1 less than MSRP, and make much more than that from injecting extra ads and stealing data. Not to mention, all the bad press "you" get for "shipping a phone with ads in it".

Mere tamper-evidence - having a "bootloader unlocked" warning on boot - isn't obvious enough for a new user who has just bought the phone for the first time. So all manufacturers have added time locks and anti-fraud detection for bootloader unlocking. The time lock in particular is the best way to cut down this effect during the early sales process after which time it's hard to catch up in review score. But a time lock can only be implemented securely via a remote server out of the user's hands.

Let's say you found a strategy that had 10% return and 1% volatility. you really wouldn't leverage this? Even after 4x leverage is applied, it would still be considerably less risky than the S&P 500.

> I get the impression that it sucks to be an early employee at most startups,

Depends what you want. I had a guy work for us at my first startup: he was employee #6 and once we got to about 13 or 15 he decided it was time to move on. I was surprised, but he felt the business was just too big for him. And indeed I've looked at his career over the ensuing years and he's worked for some amazing companies...always just for a year or so and always when they were very tiny. Sometimes I noticed he'd worked with the same people, so he wasn't leaving because he was a poor performer (we missed him) but simply because that's what he liked.

As well as the formal, visible institutions like constitutions or legal frameworks there are a lot of invisible ones like cultural norms.

In a lot of countries the most powerful institution is "family first" (sometimes extending that to ethnic or religious in-group second).

The (currently) successful countries got that way with a different norm, "same rules for everyone".

I'm viewing the emphasis on family first in recent Disney/Pixar movies with increasing concern. Sure it sells better in China, but at what long-term cost?

Unfortunately any such scheme nowadays would be a lucrative target (to say the least) for bots and mechanical Turks. It would basically just become another SEO metric.

Instead you can exclude a specific site using "-site:example.com". This works on at least DDG and Google. Now, if only search engines would let me save those exclusions as preferences (even in a cookie, in case of privacy-focused search engines like DDG) I could blacklist a whole bunch of high-SEO crap sites. That would be a game changer: one black pattern and you're out of my search results.

Monetary success historically flowed to founders, and those off the beaten path. 20 years ago startups provided a strong path to success with friends and family often getting excited when the next hot app/website was something you worked on.

This. Redux is the worst for this.

"Compose your reducers, which magic a state object out of defaults, and split your switch statement across a zillion files, and isn't it amazing how it's just Javascript?" - feels like a direct quote from every Redux tutorial and blog post ever.

I yearn for "make your state an object, and have a big switch statement. Oh, and if that ever becomes unmanageable, only then think about reducers."

> such strange/unpleasant/non-complementary side-dishes

I'm curious, what's an example?

All the frozen dinners at my supermarket are a protein (beef, chicken, turkey) with a starch (noodles, mashed potatoes) and maybe frozen veggies. Often with sauce/gravy. All totally normal.

I'm struggling to imagine a strange/unpleasant side dish.
A week or two ago, I was working with a colleague who wanted to get me set up to deploy my code to an AWS service he had provisioned for us. "I use this tool that makes it super-simple," he said. It's true, typing the command to deploy takes no time at all.

However.

It took an entire day's work to install the prerequisites. Docker. Node.js. The authenticator tool that for some reason needs an entire headless Chromium. The tool that actually does the deployment. Configuration files with magic strings in them. YAML. JSON. After a year and a half of fairly stable operation (at least as good as you can get from Windows 10), my work laptop now randomly bluescreens. Neither he nor I understands what most of this stuff does -- it's tribal knowledge he found on a corporate OneNote somewhere. I have no idea what we just automated away, or how difficult it would be to send my 500 lines of Python code to this cloud service by hand.

On the plus side, I can now deploy my code by typing ten characters in the console.

"illegal" means different things regionally. One locale's legal content is considered elsewhere in another. We don't all want to be bound by China's laws. And even in America, most laws are at the state level (e.g., ads for marijuana are OK in much of the country, but definitely not for Texas), so we wouldn't even want to resort to "American" standards.

My point was that we should and can understand the difference between sources of bad information and good information, this is and should be taught in schools. I don’t think we should protect the minority by limiting everyone. We could make a safety vs security argument but in my opinion we should protect children only and allow adults to make stupid mistakes. This is why we have drinking age, smoking age and drivers license ages. At some point we need to assume a level of intelligence in the population and in accordance allow freedom to make mistakes.
> Societies do this because it is widely believed that it would be impossible for various things to happen without it.

It is not society's business to allow or disallow different kinds of contracts between private parties. If I know that corporation's investors don't have personal liability and still decide to go into business with them, it's my personal decision to accept this risk and not society's. If I so please, I could go into even riskier deals, up to just gifting them my money. It could be a stupid decision, but it's my decision to make, not something that "society" can allow me to do – actually, not society, but it's worst enemy, the government.

Of course, some governments act out of assumptions that you stated, but it's nothing more than just justification for tiranny.

Again, in the bootcamp, but there are many different types of buyers and you just have to work out how to reach the ones that align with your goals.
I worked at a company founded by an ex-Apple CEO. He tried this technique because Steve Jobs did it. The problem was that it doesn’t work at all unless you truly have 2 or 3 entire teams of fully competent people to pull it off. It can work at Apple because they’re absolutely massive and they only focus on a very small number of products.

In our case, making two teams work independently on the same problem just created a situation where each team had half as many resources.

Given Intel’s history of paying median rather than top wages and losing their best employees to competitors, they didn’t even have one full department capable of pulling this off, let alone 2 or 3.

> I don't know where the notion of "Intel is about to die and TMSC will make us suffer due to monopoly" comes from

Semiconductor R&D costs have been going up, companies consolidating or went into niches. There are jokes about having to buy from The Semiconductor Company® in the future.

Intel is sitting on a lot of money, so they're not going to die soon. But they haven't been showing signs of improving the situation since 14nm was delayed in 2013. This saga didn't start with 10nm. Remember that the cadence used to be tick-tock every 18 months. We still can't get 10nm desktop chips.
So there are some questions how they'll fare in the future.
