It'd be an even bigger shame if the number was published and thousands upon thousands of people used it and spent the time on the call complaining about stupid stuff like the pilots not being hot enough, the vegetarian meal option not containing any meat, the lack of Girls Gone Wild videos in the in-flight entertainment center, etc.
Highly sophisticated algorithms my ass.
HFTs do one and only one thing: arbitrage.
They take advantage of having a faster connection to an exchange than your broker so that they can buy first and sell it to your broker at a higher price, allowing them to pocket the difference without having added anything of value to the transaction.
All the BS about adding liquidity to the market is just that; BS. The transaction would go through just as well without HFT traders tacking on a profit margin for themselves.
This isn't likely to happen.
I think you mean it isn't likely to happen again, but the fact that it's happened before proves that it can happen again.
Never underestimate the willingness of corporations to break laws in the name of profit.
From the summary, which you didn't bother to read:
Even in America, the EV market "has increased so far this year, with 11.7% US EV sales growth YTD."
If an 11.7% increase is "tanked", then please convince my employer to tank my salary every year because I would be super happy with that.
Logitech brought in outside cybersecurity firms, notified regulators and says the incident will not materially affect its financial results.
It's fine if customers' and employees' finances are obliterated just so long as Logitech's financial results are okay.
The fucking corporations aren't even bothering to pretend to care about customers and employees anymore. Shareholder value is the only thing they worry about.
I have a bottle of water for you. It's only got 0.04% ricin in it. It's a small number, so it's fine.
We will need to be building nuclear power plants at a rate double or quadruple that we saw at the peak of building nuclear power plants in the 1970s to keep up with growing demand.
The current AI craze has not resulted in profits. Just massive amounts of money thrown into building something that shows no sign of becoming profitable despite every company trying to ram it into every product and service they can. It does show every sign of being a bubble that will eventually pop in the not-to-distant future.
Building nuclear plants at the rate you suggest would be another way to throw massive amounts of money into building things that will never be profitable because the power demand won't be there when the AI bubble pops.
As the summary says, the previous 100k sims were in 5 vacant offices and apartments in and around the city. It's highly unlikely that the 200k they seized this time were in one location.
Washington DC is nowhere near being the most expensive place to stay.
Tons of hotel rooms between $150 and $200/night when there's no holiday going on. I live in a little town and the hotels that aren't complete dumps start at $120. Flights from LA to DC start at $150 or so, which isn't any more expensive than flying to Houston. A rental car in DC can be had for around $100/day which is about the same as a rental car in Houston.
As for accessibility, booking one flight and one hotel stay to see all the exhibits in one place is far more accessible than booking multiple flights and hotel stays to visit exhibits scattered across the country.
Finally, I would really like to see the source that backs up your claim that "only a fraction of American students and veterans have ever seen the Space Shuttle on display, or the original Smithsonian museum itself". I'm fairly sure the source is you just making shit up and presenting it as truth.
To move the space shuttle, both the building it's currently housed in and the building it's moved to would have to be partially deconstructed to make openings large enough to accommodate the shuttle (the current building was literally built around the shuttle, so there's no shuttle sized door). A customized cradle would to be built into the destination building and that won't be cheap. Then the move would have to take place using a specialized hauler which is also quite expensive. Finally, both of the buildings would have to be reconstructed (which is quite expensive) and viewing areas would have to be built around the shuttle in its new location (also quite expensive). I'm sure there are hundreds of other expenses involved with the move as well, but I've hit the major ones.
So no, $400 million isn't a "fucking ridiculous price). You just have no clue what's involved and made an arbitrary decision that the price couldn't possibly be that high.
Yeah, right. We totally don't understand that archaic colloquialism and definitely don't make fun of people using it

You'll never guess who the new CEO is.
More appropriations aren't the goal. Look at the source of the quote; Sean Duffy. A completely unqualified idiot appointed by Trump to be a yes-man, he's assisted in firing NASA staff and cutting the NASA budget.
The only goal here is to stroke Trump's ego.
Yes.
If your last bowel movement didn't change the world, you must have done it wrong.
everyone slavishly copies their phones and their UIs, for better or worse.
And that's why all of our devices use thunderbolt cables and connectors while USB went the way of the dinosaur.
