@BrightBoy70 @NBA_NewYork LOL those bullshit contortions/antics are hardly a "skill" worth bragging about. It's the antithesis of fundamental basketball and is killing the game. You tard OKC fans can defend it all you like (it's your team after all) but don't for a minute think that BS involves "skill".

I think this is the most asymmetric upside bet in the market now. Position yourself smartly and you can make 10-1000x with relative ease. How? Even if politicians try to bury the fraud, the bond market can’t ignore it. Their math will show that even if the fraud is only 10% of total state and municipal budgets, it’s already way too much and should go to paying back debt holders. Right now spreads don’t reflect this and are too tight - ie look at California Credit Default Swaps - it doesn’t reflect any fraud, budget shortfalls or the billionaire exodus. There is little chance these spreads don’t move as the bond market comes back to work and processes the events of the last few days. Now, if instead of 10% fraud, they believe that fraud is 20-30% of all tax dollars, the cost of borrowing will escalate sharply until federal, state and local governments are forced to act. This is when the CDS trade becomes the most asymmetric profit opportunity of our lifetime. Buy the CDS -> wait for politicians to try and bury it -> ie in California -> see the bond market increase borrowing costs -> see the CDS blow out -> asymmetric bet pays off. The takeaway here is that the bond market lives in an alternative and adjacent universe from the politicians and media. The latter group can try to bury an issue but when the former group is asked to fund it, a reckoning happens and the former group always wins.

What if … What if the real fiscal revolution isn’t higher taxes or austerity, but rooting out fraud? Imagine if the bond vigilantes finally woke up to the fact that reducing government fraud and waste could shrink the deficit faster than any rate hike or spending cap. The real shocker might be just how much of Washington’s spending is pure noise, and how putting the entire government budget on a transparent blockchain could fix it overnight. What would the doomsday crowd on Wall Street say then, when the deficit problem isn’t “unsolvable,” just unaccountable?

The same CEO that was caught on a leaked zoom telling IBM senior management that they are to be hiring NO “white guys” regardless of qualification for ANY position in ANY of their divisions. This dumb boomer deserves to lose. I bet he doesn’t look so tough in his next mug shot

something like 72% of STEM graduates can't find a STEM job and this week we're cutting deals with Indian CEOs at IBM to bring in more Indian tech workers.

Woman says that owning a home in the US is a "scam" and will be leaving the country after her husband retires. They did not make a down payment on their original mortgage of $800k for the home and after refinancing, again putting nothing down, they will save $300 a month.

@corbinwilliams @ZeekArkham @elonmusk I grew up in the 70's-80's. We aspired to not "see" people through the lens of skin color... and it worked... it fucking worked... We've undone decades of progress, lately.

I’ll tell you all a secret… well, sort of a secret… Most of us black folk who have escaped the hood and live in better neighborhoods stay ALL THEE WAY THE HELL OUT of high crime black neighborhoods. I still have family in Far Rockaway, Queens and we either have to meet at a neutral point, or they have to drive out to me. I stopped going anywhere near their neighborhood, especially if I have my wife and daughter with me. A very easy solution to fix the problem is to start keeping the thugs, gangstas, and hoodlums in jail. Let the cops do their jobs and then force the DAs and judges to do theirs. Be very, very strict with SNAP, Section 8, and EBT. Force these do-nothings to get up and go to work. Fund afterschool programs, but not until the people in the neighborhoods have earned it. Until that happens, the fatigue will grow and spread.

Young black men are around *25 times* more likely to commit murder than young white men. Even young black *women* are two times more likely to commit murder than young white men. That's insane.

@sciencegirl If it ate a rabbit caught in a trap would it be "using tools"? If it ate a deer hit by a car? Don't think so.... Tool-use requires purposing an object for a goal.... the tool in this case was provided as part of the environment... by humans

Wolves are evolving In British Columbia, a young female wolf found a fishing net, brought it ashore and ate the fish inside the first case of wolves using a “tool” and shows the animal’s ability to understand cause and effect.
