You know what that means... 5.6 is dropping soon

Looks like this data only goes until May 2025, so it's a year out of date. Also, overall employment is still up 0.8%

Wow!! That was awesome, great explanation too!

I read that book, and my recommendation is to skip the third act, which is painfully repetitive.

In fact, coming from a finance background, I didn't find the book in general to be particularly insightful, and much more ragebait / policy oriented (which makes sense given the author was a DOJ Antitrust prosecutor)

Is there an alternative you might suggest?

Barbarians at the Gate is the classic LBO book. It gives a nice mix of story and financial mechanics.

Because you already knew that stuff, or because it's wrong?

Great channel, thanks for sharing.

I'm not clear how they came to the steady state solution, or how it is memorizable, or is it just intended to be brute forced at that point?

At some point long ago, I was bored and memorized a whole bunch of openings and intuitive rules, and would end up with a 90%+ win rate. Lots of fun.

Author used flash cards to memorize the steady state positions.

Deriving the steady state solutions was most interesting to me as well, author just described it as “a genetic algorithm”.

The owner of @Sora on twitter must be really regretting turning down the $20MM buyout offer for the handle!

No way anyone is that stupid

That story can’t be true

Can't find anything about this

My apologies, you are right, I was misled, it is not true.

Unfortunately I can no longer edit/delete my original comment.

Super cool site design, I'll have to go back and look at all the other stories.

I didn't realize IVF was such a brutal process. 932 needles sounds like insanity, not to mention everything else. I'll carry a lot more compassion for those going through IVF going forward, and a lot more excitement for those able to concieve naturally.

687 of those are acupuncture, a form of alternative medicine. So it might help on a psychological level, but certainly not a requirement for IVF.

That said, 245 is still a big number. 79 blood samples and 166 hormone injections.

Why yes, I love having less information to critical financial decisions on.

I wonder who this benefits, the people with non public information, or the every day person?

Reading through these comments, I really miss Reddit's old default homepage.

Sure, you could have your own curated feed, but there was also r/all and everyone seemed to use it, so everyone saw relatively the same thing.

It would sadly never work today, but it was great back then.

The Fediverse has seen a rampant increase in bot activity recently (easily squashed by sane moderators), which to me is a signal that "Reddit is Cooked" and the windup merchants have wised up to where their target audience is going

This sounds like you miss the sense of community reddit used to have, I don't think that would have lasted forever, we were all so naive re: social media 10+ years ago.
