@CovfefeAnon@martianwyrdlord Ah yes, checkmate our ennemies by never letting them "Ackchyually". It worked wonders for the last 4 decades.
Boomers will be proud how we can 'lose with honor'.
Meanwhile the short interest on consumer staples is massive
$gis 9%
$cag 9%
$clx 8%
$cpb 17%!!!
Not only does nobody see value here, they are aggressively shorting to the point where these names are in short squeeze territory
This is a good illustration of a general principle:
As you build new high-end apartments, people move up, freeing up supply of lower-tier apartments.
Building luxury housing thus lowers downmarket rents. You don't need to build 'affordable housing' to make housing affordable.
@curtdoolittle@StefanMolyneux But negative externalities can dwarf the invested capital; making the corp a call option for shareholders (limited downside, unlimited upside). Who’s writing the put option bearing the tail risk?
This is just not true and it's sad that people believe it.
It's also indicting, when it's so obviously false if you just look out into the world. What you see should match what the statistics clearly show:
Estimated marriage effects for men and women are almost always similar🧵
Inference is becoming the largest compute market and energy consumer in AI. Pearl turns inference CapEx of hyperscalers into a profit center: every LLM token produced by GPUs can simultaneously generate ¶PRL in parallel. That means users get 2-for-1 economics: useful inference today, and Pearl coins that discount future compute.
We’re excited to partner with Together AI to launch the first 2-for-1 inference endpoint offering SoTA LLMs at discounted price, and securing the Pearl network in parallel.
Founders overestimate how hard it is to become a top 100 expert on most subjects.
For most things you need to solve, there’s usually a very clear path: just go do the work, obsessively, and become friends with everyone else doing it.
How am I only finding out now that the "caloric restriction extends lifespan" thing is not real??
Turns out it's largely a "regression to the mean" effect from using inbred, short-lived research animals. In outbred rhesus monkeys, CR offers ~zero benefit to lifespan.
@GreeneMan6 I'm gonna throw in TV.
TV series don't usually have children because they don't bring interesting plot twists, are a pain to deal with on set and age out of their role. Women simply follow the herd, or in this case what they see.
@Aarvoll_ Wealthy elites get to discriminate by paying for expensive, homogeneous neighborhoods. Meanwhile, they strip the working class of any ability to discriminate using non-monetary means.
A revealing experiment in social psychology:
What happens when you post an image of a real Monet painting but say it’s AI-generated?
