Because HN can't be seen to discuss the military take-over of the seat of government of one of the most powerful countries on earth. It would be unseemly. The coup will not only not be televised, it won't even be discussed.
It’s more likely that users are flagging these posts because of the Reddit-tier commentary
Has anybody actually been finding good deals on used Tesla's? Every time I see one that looks like a decent price, it has extremely high miles or serious issues.
Anytime I see one with low miles and in good condition, it is approaching the price of a new one.
I keep seeing "FEDERAL EV TAX CREDIT ALREADY REFLECTED IN LISTED PRICE", so the price is already off by a few K on top of all that.

Right, exactly what I said. They don't make money by market making. They make money by charging transaction fees, and on an access basis to their "algorithms" which are designed against analyzing the complex futures that they are the market maker for.
The incentive for users to sign up with them is to get access to "better" pricing for whatever commodity they pair the buy/sell orders for - but remember these are futures so its all betting, and so the algorithms don't really mean anything.

“client market making”. That’s very different from “market making”, you two are not in agreement at all here

a) What do you call this at the bottom of the page

b) If you don't have customers, why have a company?
I don’t really understand question b), how else would you organize a venture involving more than a couple people?

I can't tell if people don't understand how financial firms work or are you just being sarcastic.
If a company has customers, and those customers buy a product, the company charges a price for that product.
> If a company has customers
They don't...

Man from all these responses, so many people are unaware of the finance world, lol. Or just bots posting for HRT
In case you are unaware - very single trading firm makes money on fees, not by outperforming the market. This goes for firms like Vanguard too.
Just think about it for a little bit - if you could reliably outperform the market by any % with an algorithm why even start a company? Just take out loans, invest, make money, repeat and become rich. No expenses to manage a company.
> Because every single trading firm makes money on fees
I really want to know what you think this company does, precisely

Wonder if mojo has gotten anywhere further, since they’re trying to bring speed while not sacrificing most of the syntax

GMail (and Fastmail) are rendering the email. It just happens that the email and we webbrowser are both HTML. In no case should they just literally forward the email HTML to the browser. They scrub JavaScript, non-whitelisted HTML elements, rewrite links/external resources including tracking pixels.
You can see the raw email with "show original" in the options
Meh, macOS’s Mail.app approach of everything-but-the-JavaScript is great and I wish outlook & Gmail did it too
