Thoughts on how online markets will scale when they aren’t operated by humans. Thoughts on how human participation in markets will be impacted by LLMs.

Fair, and the number of people that use Excel and understand this sentiment is also remarkably low.
Re:New iPad Pro with M4 chip and Apple Pencil Pro on Tuesday May 07, 2024 @11:30AM (#40286938)
Interesting how many different offerings they have now outside of just spending the initial ~$1000 on the ipad itself. Purchasing the pencil, usb-c, key board, smart folio, logic pro (subscription), final cut (subscription), etc...

I'd be curious to know the average age of an ipad in circulation is now. I used an ipad for school from 2012-2017, never used the apple pencil, but it always worked great for my needs. My girlfriend got one for med school and uses it with the pencil especially when shes not at home.

Re:Relational is more than SQL on Saturday September 16, 2023 @11:51AM (#37535864)
Does it SELECT * by default if I never define a SELECT below my FROM? ... Continuing to encourage folks by allowing them to SELECT * easier is would not be fun for me... I could be wrong?

Agreed, just parsing out the formatting so its "fewer lines" than traditional SQL soured me.

The expressions example is ridiculous, in Redshift I can do this all day?? SELECT 1 + 2 AS num1 , num1 * 2 AS num2 -- Literally no difference

Just learn SQL...
