It might be difficult to value because datacenters have high fixed costs and upfront investment and low marginal costs. If I spend 1B building a datacenter and 10M/month to run it (assume this varies negligibly with usage) and on average 25% of it goes to internal use and 70% to customer inference and 5% idle, should I charge 25% of it to internal use even though the marginal cost is lower because internal workflows are predictable and can be scheduled during off peak hours? With that being said I agree it's wrong to value it at the retail price (unless they are supply constrained) and this is probably for marketing purposes.

They both revolve around their barycenter. So neither one revolving around the other is ground truth. In practice either one can be the right choice (earth at center for video game, sun at center for astronomy predictions).

There are diminishing returns to more engineers. Also hiring more is like investing with leverage. You might increase EV but also increase the chance of going bust if things go poorly.

Found the person who didn't read the article lol

ozontel.com doesn't exist. Is that a typo or did a competitor really buy ads to a nonexistent domain?

So Trevor fabricated evidence to fool the police? That's a far more serious offense than the sexual misconduct, and frankly it's hard to believe he could pull that off, unless he managed to bribe the police. Johnny's probably not completely innocent - they can both be scumbags.

If you look at it in terms of risk-adjusted returns (Sharpe ratio), a fixed transaction fee costs more Sharpe on a low-variance bet than it does on a high-variance bet. The variance of balanced contracts is higher than the variance of unbalanced ones (p(1-p) is concave with maximum at p=0.5), so after adjusting for risk the transaction fee is more significant for the unbalanced contract.

A large proportion, if not the majority of my doordash orders include some sort of promotion. They're everywhere and at this point I almost have an expectation that doordash will always have a promotion that lets me order at a discount.

I think that these effective consumer subsidies are included in their "sales and marketing" budget.

Yeah, but left/right is a big part of what differentiates political parties. It's like the first factor in a PCA decomposition.

I don't get it. If the landlord wants the filming to happen so badly, why doesn't he kick in a few grand to compensate his tenant... That's a lot easier than kicking and screaming all night.

If ROM space is so valuable, why is ASCII text (which I imagine is relatively large) stored on it?
