    I got four out of five correct, but I was a bit lucky I think. I'd like to hear somebody do the same with saxophone. I suspect it would be harder to make an AI sax sound authentic, unless it was Kenny G.

    I certainly hope that turns out to be false.

    I think this thread was just a test to see who's sick enough to open it, given the headline.

    @xenon said in Cryptocurrencies and Private Market Assets in 401(k): Doesn't the almost make private equity public equity? Still not tradable though. And will look misleadingly stable in someone’s 401k when in reality the underlying value will be all over the place. (Cliff Asness calls it ‘volatility laundering’)

    Oh well, at least we can take pride in having trained our replacement. The dinosaurs didn't train us to take over.

    I think that might be second. Biggest instance of hypocrisy is the extent to which they rolled out these affirmative action / DEI policies, ostensibly to help disadvantaged minorities, only to fill most of the slots with kids of rich Nigerians, etc. Once on Loury’s show he and McWhorter both estimated that over half the black kids on campus were foreign born.

    By the way in the US that character is called “Sir Topham Hatt” for anyone confused about who The Fat Controller (the original name) is.

    Museums are very educational. This one taught me about the importance of markets. Go to any of the hundreds of hotels or restaurants here, and everybody treats you nice. Go to the one place you can go to see some original Da Vincis, and the customer facing personnel are reminiscent of the DMV.

    Test drove a Vinfast SUV in early 2023. It drove just fine. Nothing particularly noteworthy except maybe the very large, portrait oriented touch screen with in the middle of the console.
