    God damn, this guy really put on a performance. The "good day" at the end was great.

    Not everything has to be connected in a logical way. I just watched the television for 30 minutes here and then took a giant shit which was noteworthy for the amount of blood in it. Sure it makes sense that the physical consequences of consuming shit on tv caused my digestive system to hemorrhage, but there's probably not a connection.

    The kid was a fucking idiot pencil neck with "billions of dollars" and a regular consumer of amphetamines. If I were in charge of a money laundering scheme I wouldn't entrust him to run a node of it.

    What's going on with births down under in Australia?

    You ready? Look at the data for the past 10 years. compared with 2021. What on earth could be CAUSING a combined 71% decrease in births from October to December? It’s been a bloody year so, it is unlikely to me that the data have not been processed and entered which would mean that these are the real numbers. Really?

    Let those who have never run after a false rumor cast the first stone.
    Here's an example, provided by yours truly.

    The more uncomfortable reality is that parts of the business world are really just this embarrassing.
    I still have the feeling Bankman and Robin are cardboard cutouts disguising someone who had an agenda that this whole thing has fulfilled somehow. Could be a power behind the throne who made off with that missing 1 billion, could be geopolitical interests who wanted to create a huge crypto scandal to set the stage for government digital currencies and massive crypto regulation. The fact that news isn't reluctant to cover the thing though, that suggests to me powerful people want this whole thing in the public eye.

    Highly unlikely, especially the war part. He is a GRU stooge. You can tell from the Robert Ludlum bio.

Interviews in The Market Wizards also discussed the psychology of guilt. The idea is, you can't perform well if you think what you're doing is wrong because you will sabotage yourself. So yeah, they even go to hypnotists for it.
    This gets to the root of the problem: an economy and society that reward you for blotting out your humanity in the name of "specialization." That's the sense in which SBF embodied the worst of the tech industry. He was conditioned, since 9th grade, to jump through arbitrary hoops. He made his money in the most incomprehensible, hyper-specialized way, divorced from any actual benefit to people (which indeed, did not actually exist). He adapted to this task by taking drugs and becoming unhealthy, even outwardly grotesque. And he reveled in that: the NYT called him "studiously disheveled" because, after all, aren't cartoonish tradeoffs what the economy rewards?

    There are clearly limits to the abstraction of these economic arrangements. Some think the solution is to have not only "innovators, but also adults". No, we need humans. You cannot expect good judgement from someone who abandoned their humanity, not even under supervision. I don't think regulation or technology can solve this cultural problem.

    Yes and yes, and Fetterman. Recent elections have demonstrated the truth that Truth is irrelevant.
