    Perhaps a bit farther removed from day trading, but the core findings should still hold up.

  • “Televised Nervous Breakdown”: CEO of Palantir Suffers a Bit of a Meltdown During Live Interview

    Jump

  • It does indeed! He's ranting about a capital tax too, where he just means 'the cost of tokens'. He's flailing wildly.

  • 3:44 - [our customers] want to know they own the means of production.

    Does he even know what that means...

  • TIL the term bourgeois originated in medieval France, where it denoted an inhabitant of a walled town

  • How do you keep track of articles/web pages/etc. you want to refer back to?

    Jump

  • I use readeck to store webpages, mostly articles I like. I tag them, I share them, has a firefox extension so I can use it both at home and on the go. I do self-host readeck, that might be the biggest snag?

    For everything else I use LogSeq. I read a book, i make a page, paste in the cover image, some details, and thoughts. Well, nowadays that happens automatically via a sync with my e-reader, but just to give you an idea. The daily notes are for everyday notekeeping: I do a cleanup here, I had a doctors appointment there, some good quote I found, an idea i had. Just the immediate dropzone for anything, but I do take care to use appropriate tags. Then in quieter times, I can start sifting through these, like a gardener pruning his plants: copying notes to pages they might belong to, or create new pages, link them up. And at the end, one can gape at the Graph showing all these connections, which in turn encourages another round of pruning. Ad infinitum.

    EDIT: This article seems to give a good overview.

    The ideal setup imo would be a steam machine :D

  • I had no idea, on both counts: that Google weedled its way in there too, and that a different launcher was even an option. I will look into that, thanks!

  • It really is. I've been using an Nvidia Shield for my living room TV. All of a sudden this week it showed a Lidl ad right there on the homescreen. Those fuckers. Replacement is on its way, fuck Nvidia.

  • If you agree with this view: Why do you think societies should allow billionaires to exist? How does that benefit the common good?

    Jump

  • What if society takes away the billionaire's money so that he ceases to be a billionaire. Does the billionaire still exist then?
