ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: in your AN0 document, you say that shareholder equity is the difference between the sum of assets and other liabilities, but when i tot that up i get the 11.9etc, and not the 11 that your comment mentions. naively, that's the equity that the shareholders put in, but i'm struggling to reconcile that with an0 liabilities bullet #2

spyked: mircea_popescu: in scrollToHash and the onmouseup callback there's this call: recur(content.childNodes[content.childNodes[0].nodeType==3 ? 1 : 0]); <-- for some reason I couldn't get this to work, so I changed it to: recur(content); which should walk through all the children in the DOM subtree, not just childNodes[0] or childNodes[1].

a111: Logged on 2018-02-14 15:02 mircea_popescu: (this is the deep, and political meaning of the rowhammer class of attacks : it has rendered amazon's business entirely worthless ; much like basic physics make tesla be a paper-only usg venture, so now the last remaining flagship. all hopes now pinned on googles artificial "intelligence" [and i guess "quantum" wank].)
