When I was taking ADHD stimulants I had my core dose (long release) and then a “top-up” dose (5mg instant release) every month. The guy who prescribed me initially may have been a bit of a quack (I had to leave him because my insurance dropped him) but when I switched to a super mainstream doctor she had no problem continuing it.

RAV4 base model starts at $29k USD

Zuck gets presentations with slides that say things like “XYZ feed ranking tweaks added 50 million net-new hours of time spent per day”

Numbers like that can warp a person’s perspective

Well in the US we watch NFL games live, so there's really no way to cut out the commericals

This only happened a few weeks ago so no one really knows how it will shake out.

That being said— nothing seems to have changed with regard to pizza places offering direct delivery. The changes on “the apps” are very noticeable but direct ordering seems normal.

I should note this is based on almost completing the order flow, I’m not so dedicated to data gathering that I ordered a bunch of food to test this.

I don’t think solvency was an issue here but another way of getting to the same place is that he felt he could deploy the capital more effectively elsewhere. He made a bet on Netflix because he thought he had some alpha. After he lost a third of it he had less faith in his original thesis and thus his allocation priorities changed.

Or at least that’s the story he’d want to tell

Just for context Ackman’s 1.1B purchase would be worth about 2.25B today if he hadn’t sold it for 700M

Of course that doesn’t mean it was a dumb trade but his rationale in the letter doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. It has the vibe of something you would come up with if you needed to sound smart justifying a decision you had already made emotionally

Someone successfully did that! Tons of people that got demonetized on Youtube are doing great on Rumble. Including Russell Brand, as a matter of fact.

He also just got a strong statement of support from the owner of another large monetized video distribution platform (X fka Twitter). So he can always move his show there.

I think this is pretty much what the term "midwit" refers to

Not trying to be antagonistic but, so what? No one is asking you to.

Hey Dan

Pretty surprising and sad that you would ban me for a comment like that. Reading it back three years later I’m not wildly proud about it but I don’t think it’s ban worthy.

But I want to push back against the idea that this is not a shadow ban. I see now that you replied to my comment to let me know. But there’s no notification mechanism on HN for comment replies! So I didn’t see it until just now.

A ban mechanism that eventuates in the banned user logging on and participating for 3 years before realizing no one can see their comments is a shadow ban! If you wanted it to be clear there should be some messaging besides a comment reply. Just my two cents

To be clear, the people who can run these models and worlds are also tethered to a PC. So the quest isn’t any worse than the competition. The complaint here seems to be that it isn’t better enough to justify… well something I’m sure

Uh in this case the “extra device” is your car key
