    Ekeland said Chainalysis’ Reactor is “a black box algorithm” that “relies on junk science.”

    In a hearing aimed to establish the admissibility of expert testimony, Bisbee was pressed for details on the accuracy of the Reactor software Chainalysis sells to governments for law enforcement purposes, including what evidence the company has that suggests it works.

    Bisbee said she was unable to provide the court with statistical error rates for Chainalysis’ Reactor software. She said she unaware of any scientific peer-reviewed papers or “anything published anywhere” attesting to the accuracy of Chainalysis Reactor.

    Instead, Chainalysis reportedly judges its software’s accuracy using customer feedback, she said.

  4. ...prices weakened month to month, according to Black Knight. While still gaining, which they usually do at this time of year, the gains fell below their 25-year average. This after significantly outdoing their historical averages from February through June. It’s a signal that a slowdown in prices may be underway again.

  5. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/08/24/us/los-angeles-homeless-hotel-rooms-ordinance/index.html

    If voters give the green light, every hotel in town -- from a suburban Super 8 Motel to glitzy hostelries like the storied Biltmore -- will be required to report vacancies and welcome homeless guests who have a voucher from the city. The hotels would be paid market-rate for the rooms. The measure would also have implications for developers, who would have to replace any housing knocked down to make way for new hotels.
