You can make money just indiscriminately selling option premium, many do. You just have to do it in a way that you're sure you won't blow yourself up. You make money because you are paid for taking on that volatility risk. Just li

Usually I wake up at some point in the middle of the night, I am a very light sleeper. At that point I just take it off and fall back asleep. I usually don’t even remember doing that by the morning.

I almost returned mine for that exact reason until I used it in bed before going to sleep. I have never fallen asleep faster. I know it sounds really strange that a computer strapped to my face helps me sleep but I guess something about the

Email providers/phone should have hierarchical contact lists. Comcast can go in the lowest rung, maybe call it subscription services, and your spouse is in the highest rung, in the family group. Each rung comes with its own abilities w

You should just openly let them use chatgpt (assuming they can use it on the job too). When I interview people I try to create the same environment as the one they’ll be working in. They can use chatgpt, google, stack overflow, etc. I don’t

Was that true in 2023? Don’t know just what my friend told me when he bought his model 3 a few months ago. He decided to pull the trigger on it because it was the same price as a brand new camry

You’re subject to the same interest rates no matter what vehicle you purchase. Base model 3 is not any more expensive than a typical new ICE vehicle especially with the federal credit, plus you save on gas and maintenance.

This is the best approach, if you can do it. Keep the devices dumb and add in whatever modules you need on top to make them as "smart" as you want them to be.

But even just assuming 0% interest rate on that debt is still a lot better than ignoring it entirely. For simplicity you can add Toyota's $200 billion debt to its market cap to do a more apples to apples comparison with Tesla (since te

And what if one of those companies has $200 billion in debt to service at a high interest rate and the other has close to no debt? How does that impact your calculations? I would love to see your valuation model.

They also don’t have dealer networks or unions, almost no debt, and have somehow maintained those high margins despite their low debt and rapid growth. It’s possible that by the time they start making the $20k car their margins will still b

Missing from your calculation is the fact that Tesla makes almost 10 times more profit per vehicle than Toyota does, and is still growing sales at a much faster rate. Market cap is much more closely related to total profit and future comp

If it’s making more profit per vehicle than all other car companies combined, while continuing to grow its business at a rapid clip, then do you think that justifies the market cap? https://www.visualcapitalist.com/charted-t
