Well said. If there's no true freedom of speech, we've lost everything. The last two years offered already a glimpse... Now look at China. It's mind blowing. Poor people.

I’m so tired of these pseudo science modelers. We have seen where it leads us with covid. Humans tend to overestimate their importance.

Tend to agree, check out my sheet here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dvfMYnPrb_Ln9qvEZVuL... The mortality is as bad as in 2005 roughly!

10y/2y inverted also in 1998, but recession only came in 2001. so 3years later.... it can be long time until recession ;) note that the 10y/3m already inverted though. its more reliable....

Well, that's kinda expected isn't it? Also keeping in mind that essentially 9/10 startups fail, VC's are well aware of that and basically treat you that way. Welcome to the lions den!

It's not, why do I have to checkout terabyte of code that I don't need, even if the code is modularized?
