Is “caffè americano” (replicating drip coffee by diluting espresso with water) meant to be something of a subtle dig? It is in fact how I prefer to drink coffee, but am I supposed to be feel a tad embarrassed when I order it? (It’s fine, I can handle it, but I’m just curious)

If you look at the replies here, you’ll see a lot of people confidently giving both possible answers. This is one reason why “hallucinations” are very low on my list of reasons to be worried about AI. Bullshit is just endemic to the production of language.

Why do trend followers get so condescending and ANGRY? Can’t there be different styles for different investors? Is yours the only true path, at all times? Like any single piece of bearish evidence means “Oh, so you sold everything and went full port 0dte puts!” It’s so odd.

I hear this quite a lot--if Iran can withstand US pressure, what's to stop them from continuing this standoff indefinitely? The leadership wants a deal to end the war--resolving the confrontation on favorable terms is the endgame, and ultimately why they fought the war as aggres

IMO the Wilt Chamberlain move (even if non-modal) is useful, because it clarifies that doing something extremely hard (being great at basketball) is distinct from working extremely hard (years and years of practice) which plenty of mediocre basketball players did too.

Remember when some antitrust folks were using Figma’s successful IPO as evidence that merger-blocking was also great for capitalist wealth creation? This isn’t to say the block was wrong based on the law. But the (initial) high share price was never good evidence of anything.

It was a pleasure sitting down with @EricBalchunas to discuss the bitcoin ETFs. Eric’s commentary on the cypherpunk ethos of bitcoin is something everyone should take note of. None of this works if people don’t use bitcoin for permissionless value storage and transfer.
