False positives (Pangram labels something slop that isn't) I'm not that worried about, since the worthwile articles generally circle back to me some way through the communities I'm involved in, so I like to err on the side of not instantly reading something anyways.
For false negatives, that depends on the type of article at hand. If an error leads to me spending 2 minutes reading an article that ended up being not worth reading I'd be fine with an order of magnitude more than if false positives happen on articles that take 30 minutes to go through. Maybe on the order of 1-3% overall?
I am from Hamburg, white and really don't like Hamburg, but I am surprised that no one mentioned the difference in subtile and public display of racism.
I have foreign non-white friends who studied in northern Germany, moved to Munich/Bavaria to earn good money in tech and left or plan to leave again just because of that.
My girlfriend is from Nuremberg and the open extreme right-wing and racism there is on another level btw.
I grew up in Hamburg (mostly Harburg) for twenty years and am back now after nearly twenty years away. You are absolutely right.
The (mostly unsubstantiated) arrogance is hard to miss out.
But I love Harburg. Harburg is the mostly overlooked, sometimes ignored and always looked down upon, a bit dirty southern part, which slowly grows it's own self-esteem.
All in all I just don't like Hamburg.
I'm from Germany, too. This heavily depends on your social environment. There are milieus where Signal is ubiquitous and there are mileus where people don't even know what Signal is. But I think most people live in the latter.
It’d be really great to be able to price predictions for various RWA at a fine grain: “Will IBM be >$240 next Friday at market close?” “Will George Alleline default on his mortgage for 46 Smiley Court?”
But manually creating and marketing these nanosecurities has too much overhead. Traditionally you’d bundle up a bunch of small stuff into a derivative, but that creates a complex instrument that’s hard to price—and then you get a Global Financial Crisis.
Block chains offer the potential to make these kinds of nano trades self-executing at scale.
The problem: it won't stay under the wraps. People talk.
Feels shitty when the scammer tells everybody how easy scamming was, when you yourself worked through the night to finish your assignment.
Would it still be "her house" or more of a grandma-lives-with-us-situation?
My sister lived with her kids and husband under the same roof with my mother and the situation was extremely complicated because my sister always were to be a guest in a way.
You know, with my mom being a single mom, I think there is something of an interdependency between her and her youngest child (my sister). Possibly even a codependency. That is to say: there is no real power struggle between them. They accept their roles as mother and daughter pretty well. They share their space effectively because they both accept their roles. If my sister were to exert more of a commanding influence on the household, there could be conflict, but so far this has not been the case.
Another thing is: people's individual behavior is not as unique as we'd like to think. As a whole everyone is unique, but in single surprisingly complex aspects of our life we are hardly ever alone.
