And why not? Is there any reason for this comment to not appear?

If Bill Gates made a predication about computing, no matter what the predication says, you can bet that 640K memory quote would be mentioned in the comment section (even he didn't actually say that).

becuase

- it's tiresome

- and the only less useful than making predictions is making predictions about predictions.

I think it’s for good reason. I’m a bit at a loss as to why every time this guy rages into the ether of his blog it’s considered newsworthy. Celebrity driven tech news is just so tiresome. Marcus was surpassed by others in the field and now he’s basically a professional heckler on a university payroll. I wish people could just be happy for the success of others instead of fuming about how so and so is a billionaire and they are not.

Which is fortunate, considering how asinine it is in 2026 to expect that none of the items listed will be accomplished in the next 3.9 years.

How does a vector processor of yore compare to SIMD of the late 90s to the current day? Are they two words for the same thing?

We use mercurial and are happy with it. I hope we never move to git, but I can see us eventually moving to whatever is next.

I dislike that the Fed operates as if the happiness of the investor class is their number one priority.

Of the dual mandate, which would you say prioritizes the investor class, and how would you approach it differently?

You asked about which piece "of the dual mandate", but the OP said "operates as" which I am going to reply to.

Does the Fed can any data from labor sources or unions? I am asking in honest because the few reports from them that I have looked into(mostly around unemployment) all seem to be polls solely sourced from investor class assets like companies.

If they are only sourcing from one biased source for their data, they wouldn't have to have a bad mandate or manipulate it, to operate like it was for the benefit of the data source, right?

> promote maximum employment and price stability (low, stable inflation, targeting 2%)

The dual mandate says nothing about asset prices. The only prices it mentions are those involved in CPI calcs.

> if the happiness of the investor class is their number one priority

The investor class has capital, and America is capitalist. I’m not the biggest fan either but we gotta acknowledge the reality we live in.

and remind themselves there is way too much cash sloshing about for a broad-based and lasting market retreat.

True, but it would certainly reduce litigation risk in so much as copypasta is ipso facto proof of copyright violation.

I think U of Florida used to give full rides to the top n of each high school's graduating class. I think n was something around 5.

What did it say about who wrote To Kill a Mockingbird?
