I really don’t believe this because AI is trained and models and I often wonder if Jensen H. understands the difference between interpolation and extrapolation AI interpolating training. Models is probably deadly accurate extrapolating is very dangerous. #AI #nvidia View quoted note →

Ok let’s have a simple intellectual finance discussion. Which this article fails to do… This article seems to miss so many points. 1. The monthly payment is fundamentally P*r with a small epsilon for principle reduction. 2. Interest rates won’t stay up forever? 3. How long does an average homeowner stay in a house? P can drop by 50% or “r” can drop by 50% “r” was recently 2.5% and is now 6.5% Maybe we need to look at r Also property taxes are driving sales as much as “r” Infact property taxes in Illinois have the effect of doubling “r”. So in Illinois you could create massive wealth by suspending property taxes and dropping interest rates. A $500,000 house would easily be valued at more than $1,000,000.

Was at a used bookstore in a small Arkansas town, stumbled on an interesting book so I bought it. #physics #bookstr #science I got to thinking I wonder who is involved in magnetohydrodynamic back in 1956, very interested so I looked up Louis N Ridenhour and it turns out he has a Wikipedia page. Like many California physicists from the 40s and 50s he did not live a long life but in 1957 this would have been among the most advanced science. And the editor was a manhattan project physist from Germany with an equally impressive bio:

Understand this! Thanks @Carl B Menger We mine 3300 tonnes of gold each year! “It’s the same situation as gold and gold mining. The marginal cost of gold mining tends to stay near the price of gold. Gold mining is a waste, but that waste is far less than the utility of having gold available as a medium of exchange. I think the case will be the same for Bitcoin. The utility of the exchanges made possible by Bitcoin will far exceed the cost of electricity used. Therefore, not having Bitcoin would be the net waste.” - Satoshi Nakamoto View quoted note →
