How does this play out? They pay a fine? Tim Cook is extradited? Something in between?


lol no way trump would let the UK extradite a US CEO.


The Five-Eyes agreement allows the UK and US to share any intelligence material immediately. This is 100% orchestrated with American intelligence agencies to allow them to get American data.

When push comes to shove, the US government will probably side with the UK.


Although I agree — and also left the UK in part* because this law was clearly going to blow up like this — I would add that the US and China are about equal now, so look at what gets done to Chinese tech firms that don't play nice.

* the other part being Brexit, whose saga still isn't over given the Reform party opinion poll rating and them wanting to also leave the European Convention on Human Rights which has bad things to say about government surveillance


Trump didn't let the UK extradite someone who killed a teenager in a hit-and-run, never mind a big tech CEO.


Tim Apple also made sure to pay Trump a cool $1 million for protect- I mean the inauguration committee.

How much has the UK given Trump, a man who views the world in terms of transactions?


Despots and tyrants are very unpredictable when things don't go their way, but lucky for the rest of the world, the UK is a has been state in full collapse, so whatever tantrum that Starmer will throw at a result will mostly be limited in impact to his own already severely opressed population.


“the UK is a has been state in full collapse”

What the heck are you talking about? Get off X.com, stop slavishly following what Elon Musk thinks, join the real world.

Is the voltage the reason power lines are buried in Europe? I do wish we would do so in the US.


Buried lines are invisible until you hit them with a shovel. The reason to bury power lines is mostly so you don't have to look at them.


Correct. It would be hard to find a stock where some combination of these players were not the largest shareholders based on the aggregation of all their managed funds.


This might be downvoted due to the FED finger point, but that aside it is exactly right. A responsible banker would have invested in floating-rate securities or hedged the fixed-rate risk via interest rate swaps. SVB was certainly sophisticated enough to know this.


Pretty sure the Fed "wants" to bring up unemployment. I.e. make wage inflation decrease. To put it another way, they want everyone to feel more poor so they spend less frivolously.


I've found NestJs to be a very thoughtful application framework. I'd argue it demonstrates pro-level typescript coding.

Nest is impressive. Especially if you came from .Net or Java. I just started a new project with Nest recently and it was a breath of fresh air. It has all the bits I had to add manually to other Node projects in the past. I feel like they go a bit over the top promoting design patterns in their documentation, though I appreciate how methodical they are with them in their own code.


> My concern is how much funding FTX and SBF in particular were giving to EA/AGI Safety research labs and charities.

Did a malicious AI orchestrate this downfall?


Rich people got them in the 1890s. $10 a "roll" back then; ~$300 today. You had to mail the camera back to Kodak to get the film developed.

Try checking out the options:

      refetchInterval: false,
      refetchOnMount: false,
      refetchOnWindowFocus: false,
      refetchOnReconnect: false,
      staleTime: Infinity,
I was similarly surprised at how 'chatty' react-query was by default, but changing these defaults quieted it down. Great library though, and I understand the argument for these defaults.
