From London to New York via Switzerland: the booming trade in gold bars
Client Challenge
 ![](https://archive.is/Y7KGa/ef47013f4e87fed7832b6d966d09999c12fa90d0.avif) > In a world where financial transactions ping around the world in a fraction of a second, the booming triangular trade underscores the gold market’s reliance on lumps of metal. In normal times, claims on billions of dollars of gold are traded without the bars ever leaving a vault. > But the distortions created by Trump’s radical trade policies have strained the system. Even though Trump has never mentioned bullion tariffs, the slight chance that he might do so was enough to send the price of gold futures in the US higher than in London, creating an arbitrage opportunity for traders willing to transport the metal across the Atlantic. originally posted at

this is better than IMAX
 I find it really silly. It for sure is both worse quality and harder to set the tech up than just an ipad or laptop connected to the station. But it reminded me of Denis Villeneuves obsession with these silly little directors viewfinders: ![](https://static1.cbrimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/how-denis-villeneuve-became-the-kwisatz-haderach-the-dune-franchise-needed.jpg) It's only a stick to attach the lens to. He can't be bothered to look with his eyes or stand behind the camera man. No, mr artist neeeds to look through the genuine lenses that gets used in the shoot. originally posted at

AI can steal your voice, and there's not much you can do about it
Voice cloning programs — most of which are free- have flimsy barriers to prevent nonconsensual impersonations, a new report finds.
