Stereotype posted:cool so the fed explicitly knew that if they kept raising a number this specific bank would fail, but then they did it anyway and didn't warn anyone everyone knew that. The bank disclosed its asset mix quarterly! The asset mix itself was "fine" until there was a bank run, so while they were in a position where a bank run would kill them, it took idiot VCs triggering the bank run to actually kill them. The fed didn't stop raising rates because, unironically, that's the bank's idiot management problem and not the fed's problem. The fed knows raising rates will cause many business to struggle, and some to fail - including the banks they supervise.

maybe SVB should have shown some personal responsibility and not left itself open to higher interest rate risk

it's amazing to me that people will freak out over activist judges or un-elected people doing much of anything but no one seems to care about Jerome

The other banks hedged their risk or didn't pile on as much i think the specific way they loaded all their investments into long term treasuries they managed to fit into a category which meant that they didn’t require the oversight they would normally have had with the risk profile they created

To be fair, arguing that the Fed should have paused because of known risks is a bit like saying that you shouldn't remove life support because the patient is brain dead and will never breathe on their own again. You either have to take widespread regulatory action to force banks out of these positions or admit that the economy can never again survive without a low rate environment. "The Fed actually cannot control interest rates because some banks are dumb" is not a statement of confidence in the US economy.

Zodium posted:can you elaborate a bit on what problems niches not going away after a mass extinction poses for this view? what is an example of the solution sets that arise from it you mean? I understand what you're saying, but I think I don't grasp your meaning. assumption: that the complex system of an ecosystem which changes by evolution is analogous to the complex system of human economy and that it over time also changes by evolution. assumption 2: that a mass extinction in an ecosystem is functioning in an equivalent way to a violent revolution in a state or economy in terms of what happens to the system. if niches in ecosystems eventually reappear after extinction events, then economic niches would eventually reappear after revolutionary events, filled by different species (societal groups/individuals), but doing the same things to survive after an interregnum The specializations you are posting about are niches. Classes are categories of economic niches.

and I’m probably right zodium looking at the long term historical outcomes of both bourgeoisie and socialist revolutions. it means the problem of controls and stability, is always the problem, and it is not erased by revolution.

I am not at all surprised that screaming about the inflation-adjusted cost of video games is not sufficient to overcome people's gut reaction that $70 is too much loving money to spend on a single video game.

I randomly played Odyssey because it was on gamepass and they were still hawking full price skins and their weird online currency system. A.) this game is five years old B.) this isn’t dota C.) the skills are so loving broken by the end I could have been holding a stick and jug of wine and murdered Medusa

Mostly because the inflation doesn't hit our loving salaries at all. I haven't a doubt that Sony executives are making 20% more than when 60 bucks hit, but most of us aren't

I most checked out from the series a long time ago but I honestly enjoyed the combat mechanics of the first game. They were a little clunky but the fact that you had to constantly juggle actions between opponents and there weren’t that many skills or items allowed you just to concentrate on the action at hand.
