A way to add limits when being clueless: Estimate what a real human can do in a day, and use that as the limits. Verify that the system behaves ok for some time, then scale up the desired trading volume and limits, observe, scale, repeat. B

Yes definitely, one has to assume that from time to time, bugs will reach the prod servers, no amount of tests and code review can completely prevent that. Hopefully the kill switch system is reasonably easy to code review and test :-)

No there was no such claim. They aren't primarily motivated by money. But the oil companies are.

It's also about politicians and people in power, staying in power by keeping conflicts alive. For example, Netanyahu regularly bombing some important Hamas person in Gaza and Hamas then firing rockets, was good for Netanyahu's and

Wow that made me slightly laugh. Ok now I've read a bit, at least people had to do sth to get it installed, but still... You meant the Intro app I suppose, https://threatpost.com/linkedin-intro-app-equivalent-to-man-...

Regardless of how much the hardware and services already cost, the company can always make more by showing ads too ? Meaning, no profits or prices are high enough. (Unless they show far too many so people start leaving ... That threshold m

> The French reactors were taken offline for scheduled maintenance and repairs. Wow 40% offline, that's amazingly useless quality, never heard about sth like that. Sibling comment says "unscheduled repairs because of corrosion

What are some/one examples of "bad" and "preceding crushing trauma" that you have in mind, if I can ask?

Yes, and for countries too: most large countries are controlled by psychopaths, eg Putin, Xi, Erdagon, Bolsonaro, Trump if the coup had succeeded (maybe next time). Whilst smaller countries are more often somewhat well functioning democraci

> so they can hire the laid-off from other companies They don't only hire recently laid off people. Most people who apply do that for other reasons I think. Also, maybe eg Google s recruiting accuracy is better than other companies

Maybe. At least that's what they want you to think

The things on your mind are misunderstandings. Not sure exactly what you think, but what you wrote made no sense to me. It seems you haven't read any of the books. I did use the listening technique in Never Split... and it worked well,

More books for you :-) Never Split the Difference. And Nonviolent Communication. Because just listening to others, and showing that you care about and understand what they're saying, can go a long way. Not always a need to actually do

Couldn't have guessed that such a small tree (in the video) can be that dangerous! And that's enormously much force in the river ... Thanks for the explanation and link
