I maintain that collateral is very liquid as it increases and decreases every single day and is a product of risk and volume. Collateral has two "outs" where one is simply reducing risk or waiting for risk to go away, and the other is to reduce the volume of the "hot" positions or liquidate those positions. Exchange-traded securities are categorically considered to be liquid, by themselves. Perhaps Robinhood's huge mistakes have made it more difficult for them to post collateral than if they had acted more trustworthy, but that doesn't change the situation surrounding collateral itself.

The $3B collateral call was withdrawn just as quickly as it had been made - even better, since they raised $1B against what seems to be no collateral call. Robinhood actually had two ways of resolving the situation. One was to admit fault and either liquidate the underlying securities or have a portion of their clearing position liquidated, which would have resulted in the ability to return collateral and to be on the hook for the losses they caused for their customers. The other, was to restrict purchases on securities that either were thought to contribute to the VaR collateral assessment, or for which Robinhood's bookkeeping did not match between investor accounts and actual cash/security holdings.

As it turns out, neither of these options was necessary according to the facts at hand - Robinhood's collateral call was withdrawn prior to Robinhood taking any action at all, and according to media sources in a Fortune article, no negotiation took place between the NSCC and Robinhood. So there must be another reason that Robinhood's books were not balanced. However, Robinhood used the second option anyway. This is the circumstance which has led to the WSB "conspiracy" theory that you discounted in other comments, which explores the idea that Robinhood is somehow involved, either willingly or not, in some type of market manipulation in conjunction with their payment-for-order-flow market maker, Citadel, who fills basically all of their orders for them. I'm not sure that "conspiracy" is the word to use when fines, penalties, and settlements for breaking securities law are commonplace among financial institutions, but that is just my opinion.
> The fact that people feel like they can do anything without the common courtesy of asking for permission is troubling to me that we've lost something as a society.

I see this sentiment a lot in FOSS spaces but I don't really understand why. The role of judicial process _isn't_ to provide a guiding moral philosophy around social organization. Depending on the government in question that's either a role of government functions or isn't something that should be guided at all. The role of law often (and yes, not in all governments, but at least in the US) is to offer a contract between the state and the individual.

I understand the potential for abuse here in using Copilot to regurgitate licensed works without adhering to the terms of the work's license, but I'm not fluent enough in law to know if this is illegal or not. Calling out and specifically applying strict limits this practice is certainly something I'm sympathetic to, and I'm very curious to see what the courts come up with. But swayed by a moral argument I am not.
Nonsense

Carriers do not have any staff monitoring the content being posted, nevermind the largest such staff in the world

Carriers do not have algorithms seeking out what content on what phone call creates the most 'engagement' (which is probably inversely correlated with truth value) and then actively interrupting your other calls to pushing that content into your stream. Again, nevermind that FB has the largest such feed-selecting algorithm on the planet.

Carriers do not select and push one news source over another, based on the level of times it gets mentioned on the calls.

These are all editorial functions, far more selective and influential than any newsroom editor.

The idea that they should be treated as carriers may have been originally true when the feeds were absolute literal timelines of items posted by 'friends' you selected, in strict chronological order.

But once they (FB, Twitter, etc.) started tracking "likes" and activity, and favoring one bit of content over another to surface and emphasize/de-emphazise in your feed, they became editors.

That point was decades ago, and it is time to stop treating them with that old trope. The fact that they fail at their fact checking is no reason to say that they shouldn't do it (and yes, if they would go back to strict chronological feeds fully selected by us, with no algorithmic prioritizing, I'd agree that we should again treat them as carriers).

They should not be able to have it both ways -- being the largest editors in the world = all the power, but treated as innocent carriers = none of the responsibility.
> A transition to hard capitalism and a collapse of the government would absolutely bring economic disruption.

I mean, one of the takeaways from the experience of Russia is to not repeat the same mistakes. If China makes a transition to liberal democracy, it should continue to protect its state sector for a long time, and draw out any reform of it to minimize economic disruption.

It absolutely should not let a bunch of crazed free marketers come in and "creatively" fuck everything up with a blind application of their ideology.

I'm fairly impressed with playing SteamVR games on my Quest 2 via Air Link, but the video quality takes a hit with compression. I wonder if that's as good as it gets, or is it because it's over regular WiFi and not whatever that many-gigahertz solution there was for the original Vive?
Google decided this because they were going to get sued to oblivion back in the day. This implementation saved their ass, as a prevailing interpretation in courts is that the DMCA was intended to encourage self-policing.
Exactly. It should be the user who decides which filters are applied for them. Right now, there is no choice.
What's your basis for this "nope"? Google's own stated policy is that they hold all monetization revenue during dispute, and only release it to the winner of the dispute. Is that not true?

I see in a sibling comment/reply that you say you weren't monetizing your videos, and that now there are pre-roll ads on them that you don't want, and there's no way to undo that fact right now. I agree those are bad things, but those issues are separate from the one to which you are replying, which is about who gets the monetization revenue that accrues during a dispute.
There is a sceptical comment from the audience at 36:50 [1]. Maybe someone here has the knowledge to comment about that? Is it true what the person says - that the actual problems with the eyes won't be fixed, you would just get better quality vision through some other way doing this?

> This reminds me of Go's const numbers which are actually represented as abstract numbers with arbitrary precision during compilation and only get assigned a concrete value once its assigned to a variable that has a concrete type.

Haskell does something similar. Literal integers and decimal fractions are translated into expressions like "fromInteger (12345 :: Integer)" for "12345" or "fromRational (314159 % 100000 :: Ratio Integer)" for "3.14159" (where the % operator, defined in Data.Ratio, constructs a Ratio value from a numerator and denominator). The inputs have arbitrary precision, and the concrete type of the expression is resolved through the normal type unification process.

IMHO the static type error, runtime type error, and always-false interpretations all have some merit, though naturally static typing without any implicit conversion has the best chance of detecting mistakes early on. The only one I would reject as obviously invalid is the one that says that "5"==5 is true.

> But for Disney, “Black Widow” has been seen as a success, given that the company also released the picture on its Disney+ streaming service for a $30 surcharge.

Why would streamers pay $30 for premiere access, when you can go to theaters (pre-covid) for ~$12 with a better experience?

Google generally doesn't weigh in as it's all handled between the uploader and the claimant. If the claim is disputed by the uploader then the claimant can accept/reject that dispute. The uploader then has the chance to appeal; if they do so then the claimant has to either release the claim or escalate to a DMCA takedown. Of course if it gets to that point then the video is coming down and no one will be making money.

Performance analysis like this after the fact doesn't really have any relevance unless there was some information missed.
To play Starcraft II, one must open Battle.net, potentially exposing themselves to ads for the latest shiny game, and may lead them to break their boycott by buying said game. Having to visit the store to use the product changes the dynamic. If I bought a widget from the widget store, then found out the owner sexually harassed their employees, I would continue to use the widget while boycotting the store because I would never have to visit it. But if I had to occasionally bring in the widget for a free cleaning, I'd stop using it.
The big difference with Facebook is that it is tied your social media account. Get banned from that and you can't play games anymore. And Facebook explicitly bans accounts that don't use real names and other PI, and rumor has it they love to ban obvious VR-only accounts as well.

Cost is a pretty big reason. Tesla has made somewhere around one and a half million cars. If you want to make a billion cars, that's a whole different situation. the resources needed to make the batteries could become pretty severe bottlenecks.

I think that's something that's often missed in EV discussions that focus on range and who has the best 0-60 time and so on: luxury car features are nice, but in the end what matters more is who can actually make the cheapest good-enough battery at the highest volume, because that's what's going to be in most of the world's cars. Wherever those batteries are made could basically be what Saudi Arabia was to the era of gas-powered vehicles. (Though to be fair you can build a battery factory almost anywhere, whereas oil is something you either have in abundance or you don't.)

Not sure what the inputs are to these sodium ion batteries, but most lithium ion batteries require cobalt, nickel, and lithium. Lithium iron phosphate has an advantage that it doesn't require cobalt or nickel.

It does happen fairly frequently to large YouTubers, we just don't hear it because the large channels have connections to real humans at Google who can resolve the situation quietly. BitWit is a channel with over 2 million subscribers who was copyright striked by The Verge after uploading a parody/reaction video to their PC Build video.

I know this isn't exactly the same since those were DMCA complaints filed by The Verge legal team while TFA is about automatic ContentID claims made by Google itself. You mentioned Linus Tech Tips; interestingly, I know of one recent ContentID claim affecting them, but it was in reverse: someone else made a video about LTT and Google flagged it automatically. Linus said at the time that there is honestly not much they can do when that happens. Imagine feeling so powerless about your own content that Google insists is being infringed.
Yeah, I've definitely accidentally created packs of booze hounds that way. Definitely a head-scratcher before you get what's going on.
> They could have made that default implementation raise an exception, though.

That wouldn't be an improvement, tho. Runtime exceptions mean you have to exercise that code-path to find something as trivially detectable as comparing a string to an integer. It has to be a compile-time check (or a validation step for an interpreted language).

To specifically address your scenario:

> If not for this hack, everything that needs to compare things would have to take an explicit comparator function for every separate comparison context to ensure that caller can request "==" or "is" as appropriate for their use case.

This is a solved problem in statically typed languages. All it takes is a protocol/interface called "Equatable" or "Comparable" or something like that. Collection.contains is only available if the collection's contents implement that "Comparable" interface/protocol. For every comparable thing, == is a required fn. A good clear example of this is `equatable` in swift https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swift/equatable

Swift takes the stance that nothing is Equatable unless it opts into the protocol. It also synthesizes a definition of == if the type is simple enough. Another language might say, ok everything is equatable, the default definition is just comparing memory addresses (a->ptr == b->ptr) - but that would still require a and b being of the same type. If you want to compare an Apple and an Orange `==` is the wrong tool. Something like `apple.sameCaloricContent(orange)` i.e. a function that describes how you're comparing two un-alike things would be the right way to handle it.
As an employee. I really don't care if the CEO is outgoing.

Honestly it is a relief when the CEO isn't trying to sell me on some vision (with the exception of one CEO who was a legit magical salesman) or whatever it is. Just give me my orders so I can get on with it, I don't need a show / extrovert at the helm.

Maybe other people do and maybe the article is wrong, but at least for leadership, I don't need a super outgoing guy. I just want to know what he needs done / and let's go make the thing.

Now if the CEO is a guy who is gonna come running out onto a stage screamming at a presentation, like that is who he is ... that's cool too.
Actually you don't really need it because positional head tracking will pin the sounds to their proper points in space, quite similar to the same feature on the airpods. You can plug in better headphones of course.

How is this better than ’bring on the downvotes’?

Moving on, I’ll put this to you: you claim training a ML model against copyrighted text is in violation of the ‘permission’ granted by the rights holder. However, flip this on its head for a moment – that’s basically all human brains do. Clearly, the greatest writers of our time haven’t written their works in a vacuum. Rather, that historical reading and inspiration becomes sufficiently obfuscated that we deem something adequately creative enough to be granted its own copyright.

Fundamentally, how does Copilot differ, other than perhaps being a poor implementation? Is it by not being ‘adequately creative’ enough?
Is there some future version you could envision that would be, or is it the principle you’re arguing against?

Eventually, I realized that most people are selfish idiots so it doesn't matter what they think.

> Everyone will just move to a non toxic workplace.

This is a silly notion that ignores the fact that there are plenty of people who are both capable and want to work for leaders like Jobs/Musk. Nobody forces anyone to work the hard hours at these companies, and the complainers who don't make it are usually all you hear about since the individuals driving toward the mission are busy doing just that.

It's like Navy SEALS, you take any random selection of 1000 people, ask them how much they believe in the mission, and then put them into the sieve and see which ones have the chops to make it. Drill instructors would be called "toxic" too, but that's the entire point of the filtering function.
