That I can absolutely believe but the big competition is in enterprise gpt-5-size models.

What would be the evolutionary advantage of this? I know nothing about biology so I'm struggling to see the use of such a network. Some kind of synchronization?

yes but there could conceivably be better tricks to discover

> There are no probability distributions over possible states when there is perfect knowledge of the state.

I know very little about physics but I thought that the leading interpretations of quantum physics say that the probability distribution is all we can know about a system. The entropy is not due to due to a lack of information about the quantum state, but because the outcomes are inherently stochastic?

It sounds like you're talking about information entropy which to my understanding is analogue to but not the same as entropy in physics?

You were still going to lose export markets as international competition grew, and you were still going to shift to higher value-added service jobs as the economy developed.

America got richer and outgrew the phase where tons of factory jobs made sense. It seems pretty clear to me that well-paying manufacturing job in developed countries were the product of a particular moment in time where poorer countries couldn't do it yet. Now they can. It was never going to last.

to understand what they said, or to understand a proof of why it would be true?

any stats class would be enough to understand what they said

Oh yeah, I don't think I would suggest actually implementing this because it's just a lot of costs and fees to emulate what otherwise would be an index without the stock

Yeah of course you can't escape the general market risk, i'm only talking about a strategy to avoid net exposure to risk specific to the TSLA stock.

I definitely don't know much about finance, but a short is essentially being obliged to sell a position at a future date, right? You match your short position against the fraction of your ETF which is in TSLA, such that you are obliged to sell in the future exactly as many TSLA shares as you indirectly own through the ETF. This way you do not need cash on hand, because you can sell a portion of your ETF to pay off the short.

Theoretically it's not risky because in the scenario that the short becomes expensive, TSLA has gone up the and in turn TSLA has made your ETF appreciate the same amount that you owe due to the short, and vice versa if it goes down.
