It's a pretty well known Robinhood "glitch" at this point. Has to do with how they handle assigned/exercised legs of option spreads. Example: https://old.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments&#x2

Scenario 2 is your number 1, just one step further in the past. Dumping treasuries leads to you having dollars, you've basically switched from interest-bearing (admittedly super low interest rate right now) to non-interest bearing (cas

I strongly disagree, with extreme passion. They could have marketed it as the greatest gift to humanity for all I care. It's your responsibility to handle your use of code. Sure, you may find issue's in your dependencies, and you&

The part at the end about his new millionaire friend not having a much different life is what I think about quite a bit. Until you reach "buy my own plane without worrying too much about cost" levels of wealth your life is pretty

> This cancel-culture is disgusting and is utterly unacceptable to treat anybody like this, no matter what their views are. I wholeheartedly agree. Excommunication (plus more!) for speech is disastrous.

Wait, the fed wants an overnight rate in a specific range. To do this they just set the deposit rate under the "floor" to encourage banks to lend above that, but they didn't set a ceiling, assuming it would magically stay in

In order for the overnight rate to be within the Fed target range shouldn't the Fed be involved in the market every day anyway?

So what? Even if they did know, this is retarded. As soon as you know someone is "ex-communicated" from society you must go out of your way to never ever possibly see or interact with them forever for life? Get real. I'm not

I have to agree. This is getting ridiculous. Taking money from an individual does not mean you have administered absolution.

Instead of the word porn, I substituted the word dog and "play with dog." I might be addicted to my dog. Should I seek help, or is my addiction socially approved so I'm all good?

This is as ridiculous as those asking why Warren Buffet or Bill Gates don't send an extra check to the government while preaching for higher tax rates. We all know this works when done across the population, not individually.

There are so many, as a simple example, think basically any contractor that does work on houses. Painter, they can only work on days it's nice out. Kinda hard to paint when it's raining, and you can't get the day back.

I don't understand what you're getting at. So offering someone employment (do this for money) should only be allowed if it's at a consistent frequency (full time) and at a guaranteed non-variable amount? What if the job they&

Right, but without the gig economy jobs they'd have less possibilities for income.

huh?? You have an 18:9 phone, you "unfold" it and you get 18:18. Why would both the phone and tablet mode need to be 18:9, I don't get it?

I think it really does come down to a disconnect of ideals, how much to support others by giving up some of your own? For instance, I truthfully told my boss I wouldn't mind my tax rate increasing if it meant everyone got medical cover

This isn't really a story to me. Perhaps it could be re-titled "freelancer learns businesses usually pay net-60 (or 30, or 90). That there are intermediary companies offering cash-flow for a fee isn't exactly new either.

Very interesting ideas in there. Especially the thought of an upcoming Go 2 perhaps being done in such a compatible way that "Go 2" is actually "Go 1.1X" He also hints that it would likely only be done to address major i
