Aren't most investors in private companies privy to information that isn't entirely public?

I can see how this feels a bit different because DataBricks might be the size where it might trade with a decent amount of liquidity, but certainly in smaller rounds it's got to be pretty normal.

Maybe if she bought it secondary and the person from whom she purchased the shares was witheld this information they could sue?

If you want to publish proof of an event, you should have some pixels on a screen along with some cryptographic signature from a device sensor that would necessitate atleast a big corporation like Nikon / Sony / etc. being "in on it" to fake.

Also since no one likes RAW footage it should probably just be you post your edited version which may have "AI" upscaling / de-noising / motion blur fixing etc, AND you can post a link to your cryptographically signed verifiable RAW footage.

Of course there's still ways around that like your footage could just be a camera being pointed at an 8k screen or something but at least you make some serious hurdles and have a reasonable argument to the video being a result of photons bouncing off real objects hitting your camera sensor.

Why do you think it's A -> B and not B -> A? What factors of the US being permissive towards large income disparities do other nations lack that prevent them from paying equivalent salaries.

One specific thing I've heard which makes sense to me toward explaining the salary gap is the US tends to have at-will employment while other nations make it more difficult to fire people. I wouldn't personally classify as promoting income disparity though.

I don't feel very reassured.

Can't find data on child killings but norway tops the chart of mass-shootings.

When you give a Japanese person a compliment the most comment response IME is いいえ (nooo I’m not)

And はい is said all the time

I’d say the closest to yes is 嗯

I think the way we are likely to solve our greatest issues like climate change through having more smart, well-educated, well-raised, and loved children. So if you're privileged enough to have the capacity to raise such children it's probably one of the greatest things you can do for the future health of this planet (and if you still feel torn about the overall population rate you can still apply this logic to adoption).

If all the altruistic people depopulate themselves, then only the least altruistic will remain.

For some reason many people react to learning about deep fakes' potential with huge concern as if photos and video used to be infallible and it's suddenly being overturned when this really hasn't been the case.

I would think blackmail works best when being used on things which are actually true. If someone wanted to blackmail me by sharing a fake photo of my cheating on my spouse I wouldn't cave for anything because I know I haven't so I feel confident I have enough other evidence to fight that claim. My location data, who is the "other woman", etc.?

On the flip side if I had commit some crime and someone made a deepfake of me doing that crime but they didn't actually have a legitimate photo, I might cave at that point since I would think it's a genuine photo and presumably they know even more about the incident.

In terms of a single photograph though that's been very easy to fake in compelling ways for at least the past 30 years look at lochness and bigfoot photos.

Video's harder, but still pretty much all of this is not horribly difficult to fake. We've long been able to edit things out and mix audio to make a compelling video of a cartel leader meeting with them, no need for deep fakes.

I think it sshould be part of their fiduciary duty to inform people of the risks of purchasing stocks that they are running out of collateral for.

Yeah it's annoying, but I never found it devastatingly so and it's almost like an extra 2 holidays, I would occasionally get an extra hour once a year (and also lose an hour). I feel a bit sad knowing my child won't get that feeling of dread having to go to school one hour earlier and that boost of going to school one hour later. It feels like the world is become more practical in so many ways, but with it we lose some flavor.

I also love seasons and dislike places that are the climate year round for the same reason - it's a little extra something that breaks up the monotony. At least every time-shift you know that half a year has passed. I really imagine a lot of people will become very nostalgic to having to change clocks throughout the house and then eventually it'll die off and become a completely forgotten relic of the past.

Facebook (and maybe Google?) buy data about me to try to match me online so they can provide ads on their own service, but they don't reveal my data to anyone else - advertisers don't get my phone number or physical address or even email from them, when they want to advertise to me.

The companies that optery seems to be fighting against are ones that post my physical address and phone number and family members and name online in one spot so anyone can find it, without me ever opting in to that.

Hotjar is great for providing heatmaps to see what parts of their site are working/ not I mean sure it's tracking you but only on that site AFAIK?

Now I'm not familiar with profitwell, but just seems like a basic CRM.

I think there's a pretty big difference between this basic Marketing SaaS tools / advertising conversion tracking and doing something like collecting your personal real life data and making it easy for anyone to search/dox you online.

Search Meta and you’ll find the Meta, LLC made by Nate

The company being filed 9/1 is a bit suspicious, but I guess that’s a bit before the announcement. That companies manager matches the name at the bottom of this page so it’s definitely the same LLC

https://apps.ilsos.gov/corporatellc/CorporateLlcController

The manager name listed on the Corporate LLC search does not match the founders in the Wikipedia

WHOIS meta.company shows changes last made 10/26

It also looks suspiciously like WHOIS metaverse.company (same uncommon domain registrar [donuts.domains] and same last changed at date 10/26

Also the company listed at the bottom Meta, LLC in Illinois shows it was filed 9/1 of this year: https://apps.ilsos.gov/corporatellc/CorporateLlcController

There are valid reasons suicide isn’t suspected here.

However the childhood mortality rates have gone down so raw # of children per household could be lower and still have a higher growth rate.
