I went to hear Jacques Cousteau speak at UCLA in about 1975 and he was predicting that the oceans would be dead in 25 years. Somewhat alarmist, I suppose -- but maybe we all did some things to avert it. Sort of like Jonah preaching to Ninevah.
It's a good question. I can only speak for myself but I would only be interested in investing in a very small number of funds and they don't want my money (or sometimes anyone's money). Unless you are convinced a fund adds value after fees it's very hard to justify when you can construct your desired market exposure with passive products which are much cheaper and more liquid. It's painfully boring to do that so like everyone else I'm tempted to punt on sexier things every now and again but most of the time I don't.

To answer your last point, there's some of that for sure - in many parts of finance complexity is good for margins. And yes it's tough to demonstrate much value if your investing process amounts to placing buy orders for index funds. It's not all bad incentives though, hedge funds can offer uncorrelated (to the wider market) returns which are very valuable in a portfolio.
If that’s the case I seriously encourage you to consider alternatives that will be more fulfilling, and steps you can take to minimize compromising your happiness in the meantime.

I have personally let a job I was dissatisfied with keep me well beyond a point that was healthy for me a few times. And it’s had a really negative impact, ranging from damaged relationships (both within and outside the workplace) to a serious mental health emergency (my coping mechanisms were basically damaging and deteriorating).

It takes a lot of courage to recognize something isn’t right. It takes a lot less courage to change it if you’re determined and have resources/access to resources.

If you haven’t already, reach out to people who know your value and talk about wanting to make a change. You might be surprised by the opportunity to try something new and get into a situation that makes you feel happier.

Thank you for taking the leap to ask here open ended, and to come back and share your thoughts. It’s helped me remember why I left my last job and what I want in my next one.
LTC comes to mind, as well as sidechain technology like the Lighting Network.
yea, and thats why land feudalism and revolutions occur. older stakeholders become too top heavy. new ones must take their place by burning lamd records and redistribution of 'gods' bounty (land). bitcoin has inertia but theres zero reason trust cent be established with an entirely new bitcoin 2.0 3.0 4.0......after all that was bcash's pitch. as scammy as it is , at least you roger ver started it not an anonymous japanese dildo. dont like it? start bitcoin 3.0 and airdrop evenly to all citozens, you know ...because ubi solves eveuthing. .
It compiles JVM bytecode. GWT compiles Java source code. Therefore, GWT requires source whereas TeaVM doesn’t. It also means TeaVM will work with any language that compiles to JVM bytecode.

It wouldn't be something to get excited about but three major players is greater than two. I believe there are still some open source phones out there but they are currently a minority so tiny their existence is deniable.
You don’t pay for things from your brokerage fund by cashing out your QQQ shares.

You don’t pay for things with the gold in your home safe.

You don’t keep funds in a foreign currency in your home country for everyday purchases.

There is no use of bitcoin for which this seems well-suited.
More power to the developers. In the past you had to cross your fingers that the browser vendor would have implemented the gamepad the user wanted to use, and it not, you'd be out of luck.

The issue of "every site needing to reimplement every gamepad" can be fixed by developers making libraries with those implementations.
By that logic you could say that about anything that costs money, and is “compulsory”. Are food costs a privately run tax scheme?
Yeah the REPL in your typical Common Lisp is much more integrated than nrepl/cider in Clojure. Things like restarts and the debugger are built with the REPL in mind.
The whole project is a technical beast. I think blockchain related topics don't get much attention here. Glad to see the paper on the front page.
Visanet takes 0.1-0.2%, the rest goes to issuing banks to handle loyalty programs and loan origination and servicing. The value to merchants is a roughly 20% increase in average ticket size for card transactions, not having to handle risks associated with cash and crypto (theft and fraud respectively).

For what it’s worth the bulk of the spread between processing fees and origination is returned to customers in North America, certainly in the US with 2% cash back no annual fees like the Citi Double Cash.

In Europe interchange is capped at 0.2% for debit and 0.3% for credit and has been since 2015. I’m not sure off hand but I believe Australia has interchange caps too.

Abstract:

This paper built the experimental platform in the shrinkage-sized circular utility tunnel. A series of experiments were conducted by changing the parameters of liquid nitrogen injection. The feasibility of liquid nitrogen fire extinguishing in utility tunnel was studied. It is found that the main mechanism of liquid nitrogen fire extinguishing is cooling and asphyxiation. Cooling during vaporization can suppress fire rapidly, and the asphyxiation completely extinguishes the flame. During the liquid nitrogen fire extinguishing process, the temperature and the heat flux showed a decreasing trend of fast first and then slow. By increasing the injection rate and time of liquid nitrogen, the process of fire extinguishing can be accelerated and the extinguishing time would be shortened significantly. In addition, it is also found that the critical temperature at the flame of liquid nitrogen fire extinguishing is 230.0 °C, and the critical heat flux at 0.2 m from the flame is 0.20 kW/m². Not considering oxygen consumption and nitrogen leakage, the critical oxygen volume fraction of liquid nitrogen extinguishing cable fire in utility tunnel is about 15–16%.
It is going for simple and CSS-only, so I don't see that fitting in.

The author created this because they hate CSS but have to use it for work, so they wrote this library to get more comfortable with it.

I agree, though, it would be cool to have a custom dropdown in the same style. Maybe someone will use this to make a component library with Vue or WebComponents or something.
The desire for "Write Once Run Anywhere (WORA)" probably came from Smalltalk (Kaye, Goldberg, Ingalls) and was adopted by Java. Both Java and Javascript were influenced by the Smalltalk language and system.

Wikipedia attributes the phrase to SUN Microsystems and Java but, with weasel words admits that the same idea was baked into UCSD Pascal.

There's this yin and yang between organizational brands and individual brands. Not quite the same thing but when blogging was getting big in the mid-2000s a lot of media orgs, analyst firms, etc. jumped on the bandwagon and even invited outside people to participate. But that pretty much all died off over time as the orgs realized they didn't really like the loss of control and it wasn't in their interest to emphasize personal brands anyway.
I think the fact that no one controls Bitcoin is actually a major downside. The Fed does a lot of work to keep USD stable (alongside being part of a a stable government).

You can centralize on top of BTC if you want that. Nothing is stopping you from offering a chargeback solution on the blockchain network (though this is much more likely to exist on top of Ethereum's network).

There are no chargebacks for cash, for example, yet it underpins the Visa/MC network.

>The reason for the late notice is that most likely the issues were in the last steps of the complicated manufacturing process. Hopefully they learned from this and will be able to ramp up production.

Watching the reaction of AZ CEO reaction, I don't see it in that light.

Basically they took enough time to have EU too much compromised to turn around and look for other solutions. And don't buy the narrative that AZ isn't gaining anything from this, they're basically getting funding and facilities to enter the vaccine market.

Maybe approving AZ was a mistake, and should have doubled down on Pfizer and aprove either the Russian or Chinese vaccine.
Especially because the subsequent info off of page 2 gets increasingly wacky. I hope readers see this and make it to the rest of the article.

It makes me think... okay, the SEC closed that loophole, but the fact that it existed for years show how abstract and weird and unmoored the stock market is, financial games built on as much clouds as ground.
Some good points. I just wanted to say that equating MDMA with amphetamine is wrong. Lots of things work on the dopaminergic systems, but that alone doesn't mean amphetamine has the same addiction profile as nicotine or cocaine, much less MDMA. LSD interacts with dopamine receptors too, but it's really not addictive at all.

I think amphetamine's action is much more affecting the anticipation of reward than reward itself. The selective dopaminergic effect is why it works for ADHD, but nicotine and caffeine do not.

Abuse comes with finding ways to spike the system and causing dysregulation, e.g. secondary dopaminergic effects across the brain. I think MDMA usually isn't consumed in a way getting a high from a sudden spike, it isn't smoked, injected and probably overall seldomly snorted; I think it's mostly taken orally.

That's also why people smoke meth. It's not about efficiency, but the rapid uptake is essential for a certain type of high. E.g. nicotine patches aren't addictive. For nicotine to become hugely addictive you need the rush from rapid uptake via inhalation in addition to MAOIs found in tobacco smoke. Crack is vastly more addictive than cocaine for the same reason. The free base allows for inhalation, that's the whole magic.

Anyway, I am just nitpicking about the amphetamine ~= MDMA. I think we're overall on the same page.
Descubre Cómo aumentar la capacidad cerebral sin fracasar en el intento
Muchas veces nuestra mente nos suele jugar malas pasadas. Para evitar estas situaciones, debemos buscar la manera de aumentar la capacidad cerebral e impedir que estos problemas cotidianos trasciendan a dificultades a largo plazo. Debes cuidar tu mente si quieres que ella también te cuide a ti.

Si quieres saber cómo mejorar la capacidad de aprendizaje, sigue leyendo.

Mejora tus hábitos de sueño

La falta de descanso hace que el cerebro no funcione al máximo de sus capacidades.

Estudios científicos (https://www.mayoclinic.org/es-es/diseases-conditions/insomni...) demostraron que el sueño es vital para el desarrollo de la memoria, el aprendizaje de los individuos y ayuda a evitar enfermedades.

Descansando de seis a ocho horas diarias, tu capacidad cognitiva mejorará durante tu rutina diaria.

Haz ejercicios

El ejercicio físico mejora la forma física y es perfecto para aumentar la capacidad cerebral.

La actividad física incrementa la oxigenación del cerebro y disminuye el riesgo de padecer trastornos asociados con la pérdida de memoria, como es el caso de enfermedades cardiovasculares o incluso la diabetes.

Mantén una buena alimentación

Con una alimentación adecuada, que incluya alimentos que estimulen las habilidades cognitivas, verás efectos positivos en tu cuerpo.

Para aumentar tu capacidad cerebral (https://www.medigraphic.com/pdfs/actamedica/acm-2016/acm162e...), lleva una dieta basada en verduras, frutas, granos y proteínas magras.

Una buena idea es consumir carbohidratos como arroz y pan integral, avena, legumbres y cereales ricos en fibra. Y desecha todo lo nocivo: alcohol, calorías y grasas saturadas.

But there are strong incentive structures in place that introduce a correlation between the interests of these individuals and the company's success at driving up share price or even making money. It's not as straightforward as that in reality, but a noisy profit/shareprice maximizing agent is not the worst approximation of a corporation you could come up with.

The broker needs your agreement to lend out stock. Generally that's only part of the agreement for margin accounts, not cash accounts.
For what it’s worth you could (read: not should lol) thanks to an InteractiveBrokers debit card which borrows against your margin :) then settle by selling at the end of the month to cover your debt.

You're not alone, unfortunately. 17 years ago, I went to the office, and by 10am, my right hand wouldn't move much . This wasn't exceedingly pleasant, and was a fairly common case of cts/rsi/etc. I had had rsi issues previously which had been very painful, but never something which to me looked like some kind of partial paralysis.

So I started looking into it, and realized that I could greatly improve my situation by paying attention to ergonomics, starting with my mouse. First problem : convincing tech support to replace my old ball mouse with a led one. They didn't want to give me a new one since 'it was obviously a joke'...

The good news is that things are a lot better now than they used to be, from decent mice and keyboards (ergo mechanical keyboards are a godsend) to all kinds of accessibility options in OSes, and rsi issues being broadly known. Rather surprisingly I'm in less pain now than I used to be (some things will most likely remain off-limits forever, such as using a laptop ), after having adjusted mouse, keyboard, chair, screens, font sizes, and general software environment to avoid doing 'bad' movements.

In any case, if you want to go down this road, please do! You'll improve everyone's life.
That sounds plausible. I worked with hundreds of people in Pac 12 academia. The brightest and even less bright people I knew/know from my time at those reputable institutions aren't members of that AFAIK. The most insecure, barely gifted I believe tend to be and advertise it. I'm not implying anything about the parent commenter, but this has been my experience with those who proudly-tout their membership. (Roommates or people I ran into randomly in public.)

Personally, I would never join because it seems to confer no advantageous signal or merit. I can just convey my corpus over to one of the university areas and be around an increased-density of higher-order thinkers anytime.
The crypto slogan is “In Tether We Trust For Some Reason”
You asked someone to explain their comment about the "group's leaders and other 'peaceful' supporters." I gave you an example of both. If you want more, they're not hard to find by searching for the slogans I recited.

I am thankful that government officials and more respectable media outlets with significant reach have tended to condemn the BLM rioting. Outright endorsements probably would have made the situation worse. And even tacit support can have disastrous consequences, as we saw at the Capitol. But they're not activists and they don't speak for the movement (although who can?).
Ahh.

So the class action lawsuit 3:20-cv-7842 [1] in the US district court for the northern district of California cannot possibly be valid since it names AIRBNB, INC. and AIRBNB PAYMENTS, INC. as defendants?

I think you could make an argument that allowing naked shorting could in fact be beneficial. Part of what's allowing gamestop stock to explode recently is that it's next to impossible to find shares to borrow for shorting. If everyone who wanted to short the stock could do so without having to borrow shares, price discovery might work significantly better. (I assume the counter-argument would be that short squeezes could be even more intense. But perhaps they would be less likely to occur in the first place.)

The syntax is not exactly intuitive.
It's a chain, it's a hierarchy, it's leadership, governance and accountability systems - protocols and processes - and transparency towards results/outcome. It's why "historically" good brands can get taken over by relative bad actors, perhaps "just" greed, and pillage the good reputation and reach a brand has - and because they already have the resources, processes, and reach - they can maintain it more easily; it's far harder to break through the noise to create a new brand with mass mindshare than to acquire, and why acquisitions happen and conglomerates form - as a form of suppression and to continue maintaining control.
I wonder if all of this would have still happened had retail investors not gotten involved. I just don't understand enough, and feel very vulnerable to misinformation, half-truths, and outright lies...

Even if it was correct, that would be an extraordinarily bizarre definition of "fair".
Naked short selling is selling stock that you don't have.

In normal short selling–lending a stock, then selling it–there is always chain back to real stock. Someone is always holding the stock. If 100% of the shares are short, then there are 200% of the shares owned, but only half of them can be sold (you can't reload or sell the stock you have loaned)
