Yet another reason why BTC is money launderer’s preferred asset.

Isn’t this a clear indication that Apple will have its own stand-alone GPU line? This plus the car news from earlier this week made me think Apple already has its own GPUs to rival or surpass Nvidia.

Edited for clarification.

Getting an MBA right now is a clear signal that you have zero skills.

McKinsey also implicitly involved in the whole Valeant debacle. These guys love extracting, no extorting, “value” from thin air.

I would actually go one step further and say 80-20 is more like 95-5. Spend enough time in corporate environment and this will become so clear. That’s the downside of service/information economy.

Do quantum next.

I actually think quantum could save IBM if they some how manage to pull it off.

If you’re an Amazon investor today, you might be asking yourself “how much of Amazon’s stubbornness was directly due to Bezos?” Seems that’s an important question if you thought Amazon will continue to grow.

It’s quite simple: generally standardized product sizes and media mail. Don’t think it’s farfetched to say Amazon benefited greatly from USPS in its early days.

But Jassy is not a typical MBA guy. He trailblazed the entire cloud industry.

You know why a stock typically goes up whenever Wall Street “research” upgrades it? Their sales team spam calls all of their clients. I don’t understand how that’s any different from what happens on r/wsb. It’s really not the “DD” that matters but creating flow. Why firms like Merrill Lynch was feared. The whole industry is a complete joke and Wall Street doesn’t like the fact that their little complex is getting disintermediated even further as machines and self-directed individuals take over.

My guess is they’re giving away a lot for free. Firebase free tier is almost too generous.

I would go even further. If I am building a next gen electronic wallet (which happens to be a side project of mine) I’d build in a full week of escrow-like mechanism by default.

I can maybe see T-0. But I am pretty sure Vlad is talking about near real-time. Even with T-0, most of the trading is done in the last ten minutes at 3:50 EST (due to vwap). I don’t see the benefit in settling T-0 outweighing the value of safety net provided by extra time overnight.

I like that Jassy is taking over. He really helped transform the world with AWS and Bezos’ stubbornness to keep failing is what allowed that business to grow.
