@ShaunFitzzzy @truslowe01 Burry's announcement and rationale came later that day which likely contributed to further drops.

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@ShaunFitzzzy @truslowe01 I never distinguished the types of shareholders, I just said "shareholders". I agree that retail investors likely do not have enough leverage to create such moves.
The interview was at 7am ET on May 4. 2.5hrs later, GME opened to a 5% plummet.

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@ShaunFitzzzy @truslowe01 OK so he announced the takeover offer, people on social media were excited, shareholders waited, then saw that Cohen didn't have enough funding without diluting their shareholding, then withdrew & GME tanked.

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@truslowe01 @ShaunFitzzzy No, it's not speculation. CNBC pointed out that he doesn't have funding, asked him where the money is coming from, and he replied "we have the ability to issue stock to get the deal done".

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@truslowe01 @ShaunFitzzzy Cohen revealed they don't have funding and plan to dilute GME shareholders. Burry withdrew.

@JungleMcCarthy @maxtmcc @3SteelRivers @Hoodie_Milly @HoneyKraut You can't random sample people for a poll. The response rates are always too low. And unless your population is really small then you can't possibly give everybody that equal chance.

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@maxtmcc @3SteelRivers @Hoodie_Milly @HoneyKraut Random sample means everybody in the population (300+M Americans) had an equal chance of being in the sample.

What you're describing is stratified sampling where they select a handful of traits (age gender etc) and try to match pop to sample.

It's nowhere near as good.

@justinseans @AFpost That girl in the white blouse is not the one who got hit. It was this girl, and the only thing the footage convincingly shows is that he was holding her arm as he struck her.

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@Ales_Kralj14 @packers_owner_j @simonmaechling You are right to do so. Consensus may be one of the indicators, but there exists a laundry list of non-evidential reasons as to why a consensus may be formed. Often it is a red flag not a green one.

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@packers_owner_j @Ales_Kralj14 @simonmaechling You are correctly implying that therefore the consensus doesn't matter, only the evidence.

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@BrendanEich Coupled with the fact that "lorem ipsum" is total gibberish. "Lorem" isn't even a Latin word, it was sliced in half (from 'dolorem') when a typesetter plagiarised and then butchered Cicero's 'De finibus'.
A perfect representation of the ineptitude of govt and academics alike.

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@Entropy96171139 @lemire Consequently, it's pointless to keep thinking altogether!

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@lemire Don't know how they're defining "mandatory".

Australia has 'No Jab No Play' which mandates vaccination for childcare and preschool.

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@federicolois It's "just a squirrel".

That reflects the casual disregard for life consequential of bloated government and overregulation.

One side is promising to downsize government to strict essentials.

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@mattgermer @BadLegalTakes 🤣

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@mattgermer @BadLegalTakes A defamation "charge"?

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@federicolois Knowing what I don't know is stopping me from executing one of my projects.

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@RichardWWard1 @federicolois That's what happens when you push for shitty selective pressure. Like leaky vaccines. See #2:

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@RichardWWard1 @federicolois Wait are you saying Omicron is proof that SARS2 isn't just another common cold...? LOL

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@komradeperogie Since Musk launched creator monetization, engagement farming has naturally shot up which dilutes the quality of the feed. Unintended consequences (but probably worth it?)

[James @jamesbleekerPL]

@komradeperogie People are forgetting how bad it was.

Satire accounts were getting kicked off the platform for jokes about trans people.
Gummi got actioned for posting CDC data saying COVID isn't as bad as flu for kids.
Many more examples.

There's room for improvement but it's way better.
