This Alameda pitch deck really looks like a ponzi. Are people with that much money really this dumb? https://twitter.com/dylanleclair_/status/1591521505464455168?s=46&t=NvvcVweiUGLoTQtJbXduGQ

“I received the 2019 Alameda pitch deck over DM this summer & it was so egregious my first thought was that it was fake. - “15% annualized fixed rate loans” - “These loans have no downside” - Multiple grammatical errors - Up only returns w/ no drawdowns Ponzi from the start”

@naivebayesian fosstodon bans mon English toots which is not ideal for me
Considering making the move to hachyderm. Before I do, any other servers I should consider?
@untitaker I definitely rather lose all my engineers than operations and SRE people.

“FTX story is wild. Here's what I found out so far. 🧵👇”

Twitter
Margin Call and The Big Short are iconic movies largely also because of the cast. I really wonder what the movies about Celsius and FTX will look like. The characters are so bizarre and the story so idiotic. Can’t imagine them not being done as comedies.
@ekuber been there. It's so absurd.
@ekuber this so very much. Even worse when it comes to citizenship things.
@wilfredh crucially it's not syntactic sugar. loop {} is diverging and lets you break with a value. Other loops do not.
@aliafshar on the one hand I'm enjoying this meltdown, on the other hand I think we're losing something that I got used too way too much over the years. Mastodon is unlikely to be able to replicate this even closely. But hey, maybe we have to embrace new things coming around and I'm unnecessarily nostalgic.
