@1999rocketqueen @davistrazza Não duvido que em determinadas bolhas esse número realmente chegue a 20%, mas em nível nacional eu acho bem difícil

@arturdoss @davistrazza Acredito sim, no meu trabalho os servidores ficam o dia inteiro falando em cripto, os filhos deles com menos de 10 anos tem, estagiários tem, e eu tb tenho kkkk

Brazil also: - created PIX: arguably one of the most successful real-time payment systems globally - ranks top 5 globally in crypto adoption, with ~20% of the population owning crypto - adopted chip & PIN + contactless years ahead of most large economies - has run pay-in-installments (BNPL) as a core part of commerce for decades - pioneered combo cards (debit + credit) decades ago quite a fintech powerhouse!

This is wild. 🤔🤔

@mqmcrypto que solução vc usa pra "gastar" as criptomoedas no dia a dia?

Essa é minha realidade a mais de 7 anos após emprestar meu nome pro meu pai abrir a empresa dele. Milhões em dividas, processos e bloqueios judiciais sem fim. Se não existisse criptomoedas talvez eu estaria morando embaixo de uma ponte e passando fome.

@Secure2009 @Kgordona1559 @TaraBull He isn’t disputing that. He’s asking which one looks better

@yacineMTB I work in retail and have been reflecting on this for a while. The average person is so unbelievably dumb it makes you wonder how such a complex society is even possible. I know the answer is the Pareto principle, but still…

there's one thing i always bet on. it's that everyone sucks. the absolute lack of talent in the world will shock you. what is obvious to you hasn't been done because people suck. it is a constant. no one has any skills whatsoever. you are on a different planet entirely

@B_H_Creations @DeryaTR_ Growing population? Virtually every developed country now has a fertility rate below replacement. In the near future, we might actually NEED longevity technology to keep the human population from falling to extinction levels.

@DeryaTR_ I've not seen anyone explain how longevity will work with a growing population and finite resources to support them? Until we can settle other planets I fear it will only be something for the extremely wealthy.

Yes. Aging will be reversed. Right now, this topic is like how AI was 5 years ago, very distant utopia or wishful thinking that is near impossible. Yet, when you understand biology deeply, you realize that aging of the organism is an evolutionary trade-off, not a impossible limit

@sdav1986 In Brazil, dividend distributions are tax-free, so it kinda makes sense for retirees seeking an income source. but in the US it's indeed pointless.

I’m very open minded when it comes to investment, precious metals, btc, whatever have at it. But I’ll never get dividend investment, why on earth would you target dividend payers

@systematicls I’d like to join. Can u dm me?

Given that we probably have one of the largest communities of professional quants in discord right now. I'm considering renaming our discord to "OnlyQuants".

Humanity was not ready for the internet.

Whenever I start to believe the world is ugly, meaningless, trite, etc I think of what Rilke wrote to Kappus: "If your everyday life seems poor, don't blame it; blame yourself; admit to yourself that you are not enough of a poet to call forth its riches"

Want to understand how the best models in Numerai crush the competition every era? 🧵 Cue: Feature Exposure Feature Exposure is a diagnostic metric measuring how much your model depends on specific features. High exposure creates regime-dependent performance and should generally be reduced. Feature Neutralization is the technique for reducing exposure by removing linear feature relationships from predictions. It: 1) Uses pseudoinverse projection to residualize predictions 2) Preserves higher-order interactions while removing direct effects 3) Can be tuned via proportion parameter and feature selection The Core Trade-off: Lower exposure = more consistent performance but potentially lower correlation. The goal is finding your optimal balance. Best Practice: Selectively neutralize to the riskiest features with a tuned proportion parameter, rather than fully neutralizing to all features. --- This is the TLDR of feature exposures.

Oil is the most Lovecraftian thing that actually exists. You're telling me that there's a black ichor under the earth, made from the ancient dead, whose burning can realize all the dreams of man but only at the price of slowly returning the earth to its primordial state?

Definitions of "subconscious" versus "conscious" are very confusing. Some people use subconscious to mean autonomic processes, whereas others use it to mean a kind of intuition or pre-verbal thought. I think a lot of the things we call "subconscious" are conscious processes happening at lower levels of abstraction - smaller conscious agents under the control of a higher one. We don't have access to their inner experience, but we have the ability to influence them. Sorting out all these imprecise definitions is key to moving forward in consciousness research.

@realjessica @grok what is china's rank in per capita CO2 emissions?

A coal-fired power plant in China's Sichuan province. China now emits more CO2 than the USA, Europe, Canada, Japan and South Korea combined. Meanwhile, Europe is regulating their manufacturing out of business to "save the planet". It is all ridiculous. They close their factories in Europe, move to China, then pay for the ocean shipping to transport the finished products to Europe ... that is their solution? How does that make any sense? All they are doing is transferring their wealth to China and making everyone in Europe and the USA poor. Bring back manufacturing to Europe and the USA. Stop this insanity.

@RaiqueTavares fun fact: aqui no interior do ceará alguns empresários (ilegalmente) descontam o FGTS do salário dos funcionários. Uma conhecida que trabalha num supermercado aqui me contou e disse que o patrão ainda diz: vc tem é que agradecer por eu assinar sua carteira

Uma forma de identificar alguém que nunca trabalhou na vida: o cara achar que FGTS é descontado do salário Pqp, parem de votar nesses vagabundos
