Exactly this. If you gave FTX bitcoin, the only way to be repaid is in bitcoin. You did not give them dollars.
> Some people are. Some people who have been victimized do forgive and ask for leniency.

I think you're confusing forgiveness with punishment. The two are not incompatible.

If your son hits your daughter, you forgive him immediately (you do not hold hatred or anger in your heart for that action); but you still punish him to deter the future behavior. The two are not incompatible, or at odds with one another. Similarly, it is not incompatible that a man who committed mass murder might be forgiven by the families (in that they won't hold hate in their hearts, or use his name as a curse), but the families may also simultaneously desire that the individual be removed from society.

> Practically, when there's nothing left to gain, the scale tips from justice to pure retribution.

Retribution is part of justice, and is not at odds with it. If I steal $500, I owe $500 as part of justice. If I steal $1,000; I owe $1,000 as part of justice. If I steal $10 billion dollars, a sum I shall never repay, I can only beg forgiveness and pay the most I reasonably can, for a reasonable amount of my life. For justice, at that point, recognizes that a society which allowed me to steal $10 billion in the first place, has some responsibility as well, reducing the required amount for retribution.
I do not understand why people think Zoom is so good, and why companies pay money to use it. The app is so annoying. (At least on MacOS) it splits everything into many different windows that end up on different screens and it's so annoying having to scan all my screens to find the piece of the UI that lets me start screen sharing. Whenever I join a Zoom meeting from the Calendar, it first pops open a browser tab, and then that opens the Zoom app. In the year 2024, why can't it open the Zoom app directly? Surely one app can start a process to run another app?
That ship sailed years and years ago. You can buy Bitcoin ETFs from traditional investment companies (like Fidelity and BlackRock), and those companies aren't in it for the freedom.

More to the point, the IRS has been collecting taxes on Bitcoin earnings since around 2014[1]. Since the government is taxing you, it's fair to ask the government to protect you.

> the “lost” money was simply due to poor accounting and actually found

What? No.

The “lost” money was bet on red at the roulette wheel. While the firm was in bankruptcy, the wheel stopped spinning and came up red. That was enough to make customers whole to their original deposits. But it didn’t make up for capital gains, opportunity cost or the emotional damage caused by having your funds locked away for years.

> interesting that by contrast SVB leaders didn’t face any repercussions

Totally different situations. The analogy would be PayPal freezing everyone’s accounts for 3+ years while they put all the money into Peter Thiel’s hedge fund.
Dennis Taylor's "Bobiverse" series. Also Daniel Suarez's books - "Delta V" for the start. Devon Eriksen "Theft of fire" - this one is a bit raw and can offend some people.

These books take into account recent developments and events so they don't sound anachronistic like some of sci-fi classics. Maybe they'll lose that appeal in few decades and will be harder to read for our grandchildren, but I do enjoy all the cultural references from my time.

Also, if you've an emergency, technically whatever you need to do to get help is fine. But it had better be a life and death emergency. Especially if you end up taking over the radio to a government agency, e.g. FAA or DoD.

That has zero to do with SBF's intention and should not be in any way a defense against the wrong perpetrated against them.

It could easily have crashed.

That it went in a direction that helps make his victims more whole is entirely happenstance and SBF should get ZERO credit or recognition for this aspect of restitution.

I think so. It’s hard for me to believe that the decision surfaces inside those models are really curved enough (like the folds of your brain) to really take advantage of FP32 numbers inside vectors: that is I just don’t believe it is

x = 0 means “fly”
x = 0.01 means “drive”
x = 0.02 means “purple”

but rather more like

x < 1.5 means “cold”
x > 1.5 means “hot”

which is one reason why quantization (often 1 bit) works. Also it is a reason why you can often get great results feeding text or images through a BERT or CLIP-type model and then applying classical ML models that frequently involve linear decision surfaces.
I did not know about geometric mean (and i do have a math bachelor, granted it wasn't in statistics but still). Thank you, this is a great tool.

Hard to make that argument when discussing fraud, which by definition is intentional deception.
If we are just after AI now we should drop the GPU concept and call it what it is - Matrix multipliers. With that framing, we can move to in-memory compute so the data doesn't have to be moving around so much. Memory chips could have lines of MAC units at some intervals and something to compute the nonlinear functions after summing. Fixed sizes could be implemented in hardware and software would spread larger computations over a number of tiles. If this were standardized we might see it end up as a modest premium price on memory chips. nVidia step aside it's going to be Micron, Hynix and friends revolutionizing AI.
There have been at least three suicides. When this much money is being spent convincing people to buy into a bad idea, it's gonna work on someone.
They address this in the article. He can serve as little as 12.5 years without any form of parole.
Not "parole" but his sentence can be reduced.

From the article:

> There is no possibility of parole in federal criminal cases, but Bankman-Fried can still shave time off his 25-year sentence with good behavior.

> "SBF may serve as little as 12.5 years, if he gets all of the jailhouse credit available to him," Mitchell Epner, a former federal prosecutor, told CNN.

> Federal prisoners generally can earn up to 54 days of time credit a year for good behavior, which could result in an approximately 15% reduction.

> Since 2018, however, nonviolent federal inmates can reduce their sentence by as much as 50% under prison reform legislation known as the First Step Act.
so what would the presidents excuse be? “I feel he shouldn’t get 25, and he’s free to go”? Or “his crime wasn’t that bad”? Just wondering
> Citizens should be entitled to representation, but not over representation (which is what holds us back currently).

But it's the climate change advocates like you who are overrepresented? You don't represent the majority. Not just in the US, but even more so globally.
One especially hard thing for sentencing public policy is when every crime is compared to every other crime.

It is impossible, I think, to come up with a "ranking" of crimes that everyone can agree on. And because that's impossible, anyone can always point to a sentence of someone else who received too little or too much in comparison.

I understand the desire to scale sentences by impact. But, I personally think it would be reasonable to give SBF the same exact sentence even if he had defrauded people out of twice as much or half as much money.
Not sure you should get a lighter sentence because you tried to murder someone and failed.
Not sure, maybe I didn't distill out the author's position correctly but it seems intuitive to me.

Are books about war popular in war times or do they become popular afterwards? I think there may be something unique about speculative fiction vs. depressing stuff about the present time, which I find myself drawn to.
Isn't this just another definition of the original principle. People rise to the level where their noise is just enough to not worry the people promoting them i.e. the lesser their noise is the more they will be promoted. What you are offering seems like an explanation rather than a new observation.
Oh, I don't know that there's a way to do that. The G++ implementation uses free memory if available for linear merge, else it falls back to n log n merge. I don't think this affects the performance of insert though (which is already log n due to the necessary lookup).
FTX was one of the biggest frauds in history.. and you're showing us averages. Madoff received a 150 year sentence, and that was with leniency for pleading guilty.
At least we can all take pleasure in the fact that in Japan, instead of D&D being the de-facto RPG, it's Call of Cthulhu.

That always puts a smile on my face.
You can’t call it a bank run if it’s not a bank! Banks are highly regulated as they are vulnerable to this sort of issue and that’s why there is compensation. A run should not have been problematic for FTX without the fraud.
> There is nothing inherently wrong or lesser about online interactions that makes them inferior to “irl” interactions.

They are inherently lesser because they lack full spectrum of senses man has evolved to have. In person we don’t just see and hear our counterparties, but are able to exercise all our senses. We touch when we shake hands; we can smell someone else in the room with us; we can even taste should we kiss, whether as a greeting or romantically. We can sense the heat rising from others, and see all their body language in full resolution, not just the lower-resolution, in-camera subset. In person, your buddies can slap you on the back; you can interact physically; you can enjoy one another’s presence. In comparison, an online interaction is awfully weak sauce.

I suppose there are some things that an in-person meeting lacks than an online one does — a full database of all previous interactions sure would be helpful. And it’s convenient to be able to fully consider one’s response, rather than have to answer immediately (but does convenience equal goodness?).
To be clear, ships have been using drive by _wire_ systems for decades. Even in WW2 rudder control on liberty ships was partially electronic: https://surveyship.blogspot.com/2015/09/liberty-ship-or-vict...

Of course, there's a _very_ big difference between a drive-by-wire system that has a set of dedicated electric wires with some simple communication scheme, and a networked, potentially hackable, system based on UDP packets.
I think it's mostly a framing situation.

Two big things that are different:

As an adult, many of the books one buys is to keep them. There's even that saying "He who lends a book is an ..."; working against you. In contrast, most of your children books you get rid of them, garage sale, give them away, whatever. Save for a few of them that become special, most are pretty much disposable.

As an adult, buying books is not a pressing situation, sure there's a lot of those you'd want to buy but you can easily put that for later, even forget about it. Take a kid into a bookstore and they want all the books, and they want them at that moment. So, it is more of a pressing issue to keep your kids busy with new books all the time.

PS: If you need a partner on this, I'd be up for it! My daughter is past the stage of kid books now but I wouldn't mind building it for the benefit of other kids.
You got it wrong. The list is only compiled by a user in the sense that he selected the shows included. The order displayed is generated automatically by imdb ratings, which the user had zero influence on. And for Rotten Tomatoes you would get pretty much exactly the same order if you actually looked at audience ratings. Except DS9, which ranks higher on RT. So I could see some argument that RT audiences are slightly younger. But I'm pretty confident no actual Trekkie would ever say that Prodigy is better than DS9 like your random "critic" listing would imply.

I get how this is hard to understand for today's young people, who did not grow up with the old shows. We had a whole generation growing up with a future worth working towards and aspiring to. I feel really sorry you didn't get something similar.

> Because the sentencing judge applied the guidelines provided by law as written

We know the mechanics of why it was chosen. What I was asking was by your logic, 22 is less protective of society than 102, which makes me question the validity of "it protects society" reasoning. Why protect less when we have a quantifiably greater level of protection?

> You're attempting to reductio ad absurdum prison sentences

This is incredibly dismissive. We have arbitrary sentencing guidelines. They are based on reasoning, but that doesn't mean they are correct. They are fluid, change from locale to locale, and have unpredictable efficacy.

> why send people to prison at all? What's the difference between 1 day imprisonment and 60

You see, I don't think that's reductio ad absurdum at all. It's a valid question. You can argue for it and against it, but it isn't absurd or contradictory on its face.

> A sense of proportion is the difference between a black-and-white world

All you're saying here is 6000 > 1. We know this. I'm asking why 6000 is right, 1 is wrong, and why we throw away the other 5998.
I own a 1999 Mercedes-Benz E300 turbodiesel and a 1995 Toyota Land Cruiser. Both of these vehicles are modern, computerized machines with electronic engine management, airbags, and computer controlled transmissions. Neither of them have any need for "software updates" nor do they have any way to do so. They both have OBD-II interfaces, and the Benz has a proprietary interface as well. I'll be sticking with these vehicles for as long as it takes for the current complexity fetish to subside. If that means never buying another vehicle that's fine by me :)

My plan for the Land Cruiser is to install the engine and transmission from an early 2000s Mitsubishi Fuso. This will entail grafting the ECU and TCU from the Fuso into the Cruiser's wiring harness, and doing some transmission modifications to hook up the tailshaft to the Toyota transfer case. Should just about double fuel economy and improve driveability. I can't think of any reason I'd buy a newer vehicle, the "improvements" they offer just aren't worth the cost.
Parents can ask their own parents for guidance. In the proposed scenario, the grandparents would have no one to ask because the previous generation is most likely dead already.
The bigger question for me is if it's easy to uses or add the accelerator memory to your application. For something like a virtual assistant or something with some basic image recognition, it can be really confusing about how to take advantage of the different hardware tools that are there. This is especially true in the maker space, when you're trying to leverage open source tool kits and don't necessarily have the time or knowledge to write a full, lower-level driver for open source tools kits.
I am indian and this feels like outsourcing 2.0 to me just a better kindly do the needful lol
Venture doesn't necessarily mean bad. Long term the goal the goal is to dissolve the gates to Apple and Google's walled gardens, which I personally believe is a net good.

As much is the idealist in me wants to do that with no venture backing, the realist in me knows we need Dioxus to be self sustaining and providing legitimate value for people to switch. Google spends 76 million dollars a year on catering alone - there's no way you can compete with Android and Flutter without huge resources.

Apple and Google capture the value for their platforms via fees and lock-in. Our goal is to capture value by providing really good utilities for building and deploying apps. You can't move heaven and earth without a really big lever, and venture gives us more leverage.
If someone autogenerates one way or another all the delgation, then that's just as buggy as embedding. The presence of all the explicit composition in the codebase doesn't mean that anyone actually sat down and thought about it all.
> Clearly the real crime is bilking investors out of their money. It’s also questionable whether they even ended up losing money given the rising price of crypto in the past year. It’s also interesting how this happened:

That's not how that works. Whatever purchasing power they were supposed to have that they were deprived of because of his actions results in damages - obviously equal at least to the crypto gains they would have.
Retribution is one of justifications for punishment: retribution; incapacitation; deterrence; rehabilitation and reparation.

Retribution is part of the justice.
Nice one, this looks like a good starting point for trips.

One thing I'm confused by is the "$$$" signs on trips. They seem to be roughly the inverse of what I'd expect. My guess is that these are trying to combine too many aspects – travel distance, duration, price perception of the destination – and that because of this they're somewhat meaningless.

Example, Paris for 3 days is $$$, and LA for 3 days is $$. Paris is definitely cheaper than LA when you're there assuming you don't do a tour of tourist traps, it has cheap public transport, and for me it's a cheap train journey away. Conversely, LA is an expensive international flight away, expensive to stay/eat out in, and expensive to get around. I assume the $ signs are this way around on basis of US tourists travelling domestically?

In a similar vein, I suspect the budget part of the site just won't translate well. Budgets might vary by an order of magnitude depending on where you're coming from, what sort of transport options you use while you're there, whether you choose to stay in upmarket hotels or cheap places, which restaurants you go to, etc.

If you only care about throughput, just fetch the data and read should be the same speed as triple replicated.

For writing, triple-rep has to write 2x as much data or more, so it's going to be slower unless your CPUs are horribly slow compared to your drives.
Are there recent model vehicles without computer controlled throttles?

I know ABS implies computer modulated braking, but I don't think it implies the computer can brake without user input or override user input and not brake. Otoh, automatic emergency braking is standard on some vehicles and optional on many.

Computer controlled steering is currently rare, but is part of lane keeping assistance.
This type of punishment is actually pretty terrible for all parties.

I could easily see a different, harsher, but more fair punishment...

1. All assets are sold off to pay victims

2. Prison for a few years. 5?

3. can only work jobs where nobody reports to them (no management, C levels, etc). Also cannot make companies.

4. Cannot own more than 2 properties, one of which is his place of residence.

5. Cannot rent out any property.

6. 25% of what he makes goes into restitution for the rest of his life.

7. Investments into any wealth instrument is to be confiscated, with exception to a 401k.

Basically, this person cannot be trusted with making money other than by working for someone else. This still allows him to make a life, but severely limits the similar path he used to defraud people.

Sending this guy to prison for 25 years is a waste for everyone involved.
That's not the point being made. However if 10,000 people lose 2000$ due to mysterious market forces, you bet this will contribute to some losing their lives.
Per the wiki page, the five year extensions are for the indeterminate penalty, not for any prison sentence. The alternate to this sentence is "We will kill you in prison" or "You will die in prison".
If I broke into a person's house and stole $1000, even if I didn't directly hurt that person, I could expect to get several years in prison, basically regardless of the state. Lets say three years to be conservative on this?

Sam Bankman Fried stole billions of dollars [1], probably often around $1000 at a time from tens of thousands of people. If going with my logic, he should be getting a lot longer than 25 years, upwards of hundreds or thousands of years. Obviously, it's not a linear relationship, the crime was non-violent, first-time-offender, etc. I'm just saying that 25 years seems pretty fair to me considering the magnitude of the crime.

I am one of the victims (well, of Gemini Earn anyway), and I think if I were given the choice, I'd probably sentence him to 20-25 years.
