I purchased a 12-month subscription for my partner, and Anthropic never delivered the gift to their email, only sent me an invoice.
No response from customer service.. only their AI Agent Support.. Which has still not offered me a refund.
I may have to do a chargeback.
I agree that this is the technically correct definition of how margin is typically utilized, and that investors should be prepared for this in the case of high volatility.
The fact does remain, though, that the way the data is presenting itself seems to indicate that there was disingenuous behavior on the behalf of market makers and a number of hedge funds. To be seen, I guess.
also, you're an obvious hedge fund industry shill, see your comment history
It's in the logs, go see for yourself? GME purchases blocked this morning on apps where Citadel is the clearing house.
SOMEONE proceeds to ladder short sell GME to cause a massive price dump.
Users are margin called from previously profitable positions (without being able to provide buying pressure needed to fight against a ladder short sell)
Shorts are able to unethically cover your position.
Read into this... it's all over the news and verifiable with documentation from various regulatory agencies.

100% agree.
Pretty sad to see most of HN willfully ignoring this fact and jumping to the defense of Hedge Funds and the billionaire class.
Sure, no argument from me on here.
You have to admit, though - that is disingenuous. Those plays were profitable, no need to call them (unless there has been irresponsible behavior on the behalf of the broker)
This is blatant anti-competitive behavior on the part of Robinhood and Citadel.
As i say elsewhere - this margin call was FORCED by RH because they blocked users ability to buy shares as Citadel + others were ladder short selling to artificially lower the stock price of GME, forcing the margin call.
This is horrific, criminal, and should be prosecuted.
Ultimately, they know that their SEC Fine will be less than the $50B+ in losses they face from their irresponsible naked short selling.
Did we learn nothing in 2008? Are we just going to continue to allow wall street to get away with fleecing everyone else in America / the world?

For anyone saying, "Most likely trading on margin"
Remember:
This morning Robinhood conspired with Citadel to halt trading amid a short ladder sell to drive the price lower, allowing shorts to cover their losses with no competition.
This is blatant market manipulation and anti competitive behavior, and must be stopped.
Why does everyone insist on protecting billionaires who insist on playing the game with a different set of rules than the rest of us?
this is despicable.
This is 100% class warfare.
If you have some $GME - hold.
How do you keep breaking so many refrigerator shelves..? I've never broken one in my entire life..

I am just getting started actually, so I will provide you more feedback as I complete part 1!
For starters, I found the pairing of the lecture, the code, AND the documentation to be particularly useful. The setup in anaconda really enables to you compare/understand inputs and outputs, which at least for me, is very helpful! Big fan of learning through practical application, which the aforementioned combo is well suited for, imo.
Kudos and thank you (and the team) very much for all of the hard work! I am not sure I'll be able to attend part 2 in person but I will be sure to follow along online. If I am ever in SF at the time of a course, I will certainly apply!
All the best.
Hmm, doesn't happen to me! I'm on version 55 fwiw.
Somewhat off topic -- HN introduced me to fast.ai and I have found their hands-on/practical approach to teaching particularly useful!
This is incredible! Huge fan of GTA V / Rockstar as well as Open.AI
Will be super interesting to see how all of the randomness in GTA V driving influences autonomous driving AIs.
I could see them being a bit more "cautious" in order to deal with all of the crazy drivers (and events) sharing the roads of Los Santos.
These are awesome / hilarious! Awesome work!
Disturbing the peace is up over 1000% YoY for all months except May.
Looking at the volume/quantity of BTC trades, its pretty clear that this is a demand driven price increase.
Given all of the new investors, how many of them will stay and how severely will demand be impacted with the next seriously negative market event?
True. However, at the end of the day, both of these sites revolve around the content "submitted" by users (either directly on the site or across social networks), and they need this content to thrive/survive. So while their purpose/methods may be very different, both sites co-exist in the same ecosystem?
They are both link aggregators. Although, the new Digg looks more like Pinterest or even canv.as than Reddit.
This is a fantastic story. I wish the world had more men like this. If could all live our lives with the same sense of purpose, the world would truly be a better place.
