Facebook and Google are monopolists and deserve special attention.

And the added maintenance and complexity. I think the Volt has shown that there is not a market here.

On the surface, a cesspool dedicated to efficiently, and effortlessly, building and curating your own bubble. Terrible for humanity, and for everyone involved in the "discussions." Dig deeper, and it's mostly porn. If you zo

Around the time Tether became the crypto fed and everyone just shrugged. It’s a scam. Maybe it always was.

The problem I have with Stadia is the target audience. People who want to play AAA games, and People who don’t care about latency, and People who don’t want a console. Honestly, who is this for? If you can’t afford a console there are optio

Come on, man. It is literally slower than a Honda Odyssey.

The Volt is boring, ugly, and slow. I don’t know what they were thinking. It looks like it was designed by soccer moms in a focus group session.

Supply constraints don’t matter when there is virtually infinite availability. There are nearly 19,000,000 coins in circulation and each coin represents 100,000,000 swappable assets. We will reach the heat death of the universe before Bitco

The supply of Bitcoin is “limited” but in reality it’s irrelevant. 1 satoshi is 0.00000001 which means for every 1 Bitcoin in circulation there is actually 100,000,000 satoshi. You can’t buy a hundred millionth of GME.

“Merits” The stock is worth what people think it’s worth. If people keep buying and holding, then it is worth what it is worth.

> Robinhood just didn’t have the capital to clear trades of super volatile stocks. This was not their stated reason for shutting down the trades. What is your source for this claim?

by cwhiz 6y ago
Yeah that’s why the SEC, White House, MSM, Discord, and multiple brokerage firms all acted in an obviously concerted effort yesterday. It’s because of their sincere concern for retail, obviously.

GitHub was acquired by Microsoft in 2018. Microsoft implemented a more generous free tier in 2020, but even before the acquisition the pricing structure was $7 - $21 per user, per month. GitLab is now $19 - $99. If I wanted to move my org

There is a reason high frequency trading is typically referred to as legal front running. Sure, it's not front running by legal definition, but in practice it is absolutely front running. Beating trades to the market and making micro

Wow. Almost feels like a bait and switch. GitLab is now completely uncompetitive with GitHub in terms of price structure. 4-5x on monthly cost.

How can you get to a point where 140% of the shares are shorted without naked shorts?
172.
by cwhiz 6y ago
Ha! Not only does front running happen all the time, but high frequency trading is de facto legal front running. Just beat them on a shorter or faster wire. The whole thing is rigged.

Ha! Maybe the WSB traders should go get a "real" job at a hedge fund where they can do the same insane gambling, only now it's "professional." How do you think the recession happened? It wasn't retail investo

There are some base requirements for market manipulation that are not met here. Namely, lying. You're allowed to tell your "friends" they should buy a stock.

I am loving every minute of this. The "professionals" gamble on the market all the time, front run, high frequency trade, and relentless tactics to get rich at the expense of the "retail" investors. Now they are upset

Your position is that the price-finding function of the market is the ability to short. This isn't required in ANY other market. If there are more buyers than sellers, the price goes up. If there are more sellers than buyers, the pri

Do you actually believe that the members of the House had an expectation of reversing the election? There were only 170 or so of them. And it’s not as if these individual members of Congress were involved in the riot, breakdown of law and o

The individual members of Congress aren’t the President. You can form whatever opinion you like on the merits of the objections, but the end result is the same. In three separate elections this century there were Democrats in Congress who v
