It's no magic given the size of us-east-1 there is no spare capacity to absorb all the workloads

One of the SRE tricks is to reserve your capacity so when the cloud runs out of capacity you're still covered. It's expensive, but you don't want to get stuck without a server when the on-demand dries up.

thinking back to 2021 it really shows we need some reform around brokers being able to land their customers stock to short sellers without any kind of consent. Also same shares should not be shortable multiple times ...

What? Most (all?) platforms let you opt out of this, and you receive payment when your shares are borrowed. And shares are fungible, how would it matter if one share is borrowed by 10 people or by none?

“What? Most (all?) platforms let you opt out of this.” Genuinely didn’t know that appreciate you pointing it out.

“Shares are fungible, how would it matter if one share is borrowed by 10 people or by none?” Lets hedge funds create disproportionate downward pressure

Why mess with all this shit unless you're trying to retroactively justify a really heavy bag you're holding.

If you invest in good companies making good profits you don't have to care about any of this stuff. Free yourself, you have nothing to lose but your bags

I am not messing with these just looked really fkd up how Citadel was able to abuse it's position

It wasn't, and the fact that you think market makers are "abusing positions" is so fundamentally wrong it's hard to even argue with you

I'm sorry but your brain has been fried by ape memes and you need a full reset on your understanding of finance

You literally produced 0 arguments. Market maker is pretty irrelevant to the situation influential institution who's goals are aligned with other major players having pull on DTCC actions would be more relevant. I again have not dug in too much as was not relevant to me but looked fairly suspicious. I have direct knowledge of relevant situation where investment bank arm or top 5 US bank had Knight Capital Group type moment. They had enough pull to make all transactions not clear and get unwound so exerting that type of influence would not surprise me.

With LLMs there is no real dev velocity penalty of using high perf. langs like say Rust. A pair of 192 Core AMD EPYC boxes will have enough headroom for 99.9% of projects.

That’ll be true for the 0.1% of project that were limited by the speed of their programming language. For the other 99.9% of projects their vibe coded rust can fly and their database, network, or raw computation will still be the bottleneck.

(Percentages cited above are tongue-in-cheek, actual numbers are probably different)

sqlite when used properly can be pushed pretty far. Few biz apps are raw compute limited

github private repo works fine

Why do you people trust what he has to say? Like omg dude. These folks play with numbers all the time to suit their narrative. They are not independently audited. What do you think scares them about going public? Things like this. They cannot massage the numbers the same way they do in the private market.

The naivete on here is crazy tbh.

Pretty poor narrative tbh. As things stand they will not be profitable unless stop developing new models or get to AGI. So very likely never.

Good thing Sam has no experience in transforming a foundation into for profit org ...

actually hunting for i9 macbook in good shape to switch to linux after decades on mac

Might be because negative/questioning comments sound to be written by people who have no clue what they are talking about.

You can get same type of hardware/software setup that hyperscailers use for their datacenters for your on-prem workloads.

Prevent what? 0xide customers were running on-prem workloads before 0xide they just will have a much nicer way to do it now. >50% of enterprise workloads are still on-prem.
