@MikeMcDonald89 @troy_mcartor have to work on my shibboleths. — PolitiTweet.org

@markvdnld yeah, I'm not ready to let it trade my portfolio but it's pretty great in many ways. I did note the 2021 data limitation, which is what I asked it to reconcile after I asked if it was quoting me the Dec 2022 price in CAD rather than USD. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

@markvdnld If it knows it doesn't have accurate information, it should just be up front about that rather than stating something as fact. Fine if it doesn't know, 100% accurate information isn't always necessary but something like the price on a date... it should be clear about assumptions. — PolitiTweet.org

@P3b7_ Need to get the Web of Trust going. Give users more way to prove their identities, put a burn cost on their account, expose more account info to filters, offer better filtering tools. HW verification will still be gamed by giant click farms with robot labor/low wage employees. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

@scrypto_ Yes, like that 😂 — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

Having played around with GPT-3 for a while and #ChatGPT over the weekend, I'm pretty sure a bunch of accounts I just thought didn't know how to Twitter, who made uninteresting, off-topic replies, are actually bots. They get engagement too (other bots?). We need better filters. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

"I ASSUMED that the value of #bitcoin had remained constant...since 2021" but you didn't say you assumed. You gave the price as of today, as if you had current prices, not data 18 months stale. Fortunately, I knew enough to ask. At least it was honest. Dangerous though. #ChatGPT https://t.co/7RJbTLYPjH — PolitiTweet.org

Probably did some weak DD, didn’t ask the right questions, had already made up their mind to FOMO. To be fair, they are only down 100% vs 80%, like the rest of the market. Highlights the value of having a legit crypto investment in the portfolio to help you, if you actually care. — PolitiTweet.org

@STRML_ @juthica Explains why he filed for bankruptcy in the US. Without the US process, he may have owed taxes on any debt cancellation/forgiveness arising from a non-US bankruptcy proceeding. Basically, he got to spend $1b tax free. Will any other assets or gifts be clawed back? https://t.co/TF5IXXExBO — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

@okshock No. — PolitiTweet.org

@jameslavish AFAIK, Binance includes negative balances, hasn't proven they've published the full tree, nor had an auditor review, making it worthless as proof of anything. Also, it only could prove liabilities, not assets (wallet control). More: https://t.co/c8F6rarhnb https://t.co/yQZhMcvlMd — PolitiTweet.org

@brbtherooster Is there something specific you preferred over ours? You can also trade through Cryptowatch Desktop if you want the fighter jet cockpit experience. https://t.co/dpGyxrjyp3 https://t.co/oS7JFOL5i9 — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

Had some questions about this recently in light of the discovery that FTX apparently had 0 controls on their margin program. When VCs ask "how are they doing so much with so few people" -- it's because they built none of this, which is rarely seen or appreciated until too late. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

@AsiaEconInfo @HPhilophy @elonmusk We haven’t raised capital since 2019. We expanded to meet bull market demand. The alternative was falling behind & poor service. No sense in carrying hundreds of extra support agents who are sitting around with no work to do in a bear market where no hope of a near-term recovery. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

@rsg @elonmusk Definitely a hatchet. Super advanced filters could work too. The blacklists could be public, change control via GitHub public repo. Anyone could see if they’re on it but we probably only need to keep names on for 24h until the bots are banned by Twitter’s system, then drop em off — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

I had the same question: "why are they clapping?" Great and hilarious piece with some possible explanations by @reformedbroker — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

@wholisticguy @elonmusk ya, need a quick block button/hotkey which the user can bind to a specific block list (or hover button and press list #), and indication of how many blocks something has gotten so far that is a user-settable filter. "show me only replies that have < 3 blocks by people I follow" https://t.co/n8q6SkioPG — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

@EvermoreCrypto @elonmusk ya, I like the explicit whitelist override. Who you're following should be default override. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

@HPhilophy @elonmusk Accused? You mean pointed out the obvious? Layoffs are happening all over and are a prudent business move for any company overstaffed to meet declining demand during a recession. People got 4 months severance + bonus and other benefits. Former Krakenites are highly sought after. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

@robustus But is the EA goal saving human lives or reducing human load on the planet? — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

Dear @elonmusk, can we please have a shared blocklist feature to deal with these bots? The crypto scams in the replies are out of control. Maybe I have 2 lists: 1. block for being an ass, 2. block for being a scambot. People could subscribe to my List 2 and I could sub to theirs. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

But why does he keep doing these non-interviews? What's the point if you're not going to actually answer questions? The point is most people are easily fooled by manipulative rhetoric. The point is to make letting him off publicly acceptable and therefore politically tenable. https://t.co/JLWuRdzkAz — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

@alex_valaitis The panels could definitely be better run. There is too much emphasis on getting in a high quantity of questions rather than going deep where non-answers or contradictions are given. There are really only a few questions that matter. Those need to be drilled to the core. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

I don't think Sam set out to hurt people. I think he just didn't care or he was recklessly overconfident. It doesn't matter though. What matters is he knew he was gambling with his clients' money. Every interview is the same. Here's the playbook: https://t.co/0ENrcEJ2qT — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

You're a pro F1 driver. You take your race car off the track and drive it 200mph through a farmer's market in a residential neighborhood killing 20 people. Is "I wasn't paying attention to the signs, speed limit, the RISKS." exonerating? No. As a pro, you are even more culpable. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

@bradmillscan @americanhodl8 Ya, his answer to this last question about “synthetic or fake” tokens confirms it as well. They had more tokens in the system than they actually had balances. So, they weren’t capped by lending from client balances. They were literally just printing new coins like a central bank. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

"It all added up if you counted negative balances as 100% recoverable" WTF!? No, dude. Borrowing 10,000 BTC from client balances vs FTT at "mark-to-market" is not just bad risk management. It is obfuscated fraud. The only diff between SBF & Madoff is Madoff didn't have a token. — PolitiTweet.org

Jesse Powell @jespow

SBF is completely full of shit about how margin trading works. He's saying that the whole exchange operated on a net account equity model and anybody could borrow anything (in any amount?) from client funds or from nowhere. That's not how it should work. https://t.co/3k7PkbAHVM — PolitiTweet.org

If Apple thinks they deserve 30% of #ETH gas fees, for consistency, they should collect on: 🛰️ my ISP bill because I'm paying for bandwidth to transmit & receive data 🔌 my electricity bill to power my devices 🥩 my food bill because I need energy to power my fingers to make taps — PolitiTweet.org
