There's a good reason you want to avoid holding significant margin over the weekend, or even over night. Anyways, there will be plenty of good deals going on sale this week. The market is granting opportunity this week. If you're

When is “soon”? Timing the market is hard if not impossible.

by nemo44x 2y ago
Of course it will. But it’s impossible to know if it’s 3 weeks, 3 months, or 3 years. Hence why options are tricky - you need to be right about direction and time.

Correct, everything right has to do with Bank of Japan moving to strengthen ¥ as it has lost over 40% of its value over the last 3 years. Many people using it as an interest free loan to trade are having to quickly unwind positions. This of

It’s not entirely wrong even though there has been a 12% change the last month or so. The Yen is still historically cheap VS USD. Last time I was there you got like 110¥ for 1$. It’s around 140¥ today. But yeah, going there a few months ag

DoorDash claims the Dasher gets 100% of it. No idea about Uber. Is it tax withholding?

If you think Curtis Yarvin is a Neo-Nazi then I’m afraid you’re so far out there and uninformed you’re probably beyond saving.

The best way to get funding is for your idea to either have economic potential or to be politically useful. Both of those outcomes generate power. Ideas that don't generate power go to the back of the line when it comes to funding.

I've always heard that it's more likely certain additives, preservatives, and food colorings are what cause hyper activity and that a lot of sugary things contain these and could be responsible in part. There is a lot of absolutel

I think about this sometimes and I think the article is on to something when they point out that often advice is describing the outcome, not really how to get there. You see this often is sports training. For instance, in golf you'll o

Mandatory is a ridiculous rule if only for the self defeating nature of limiting yourself. I can understand the sentiment but maybe make the rule say to prefer OSS. That is when sourcing RFPs prefer OSS solutions that can fulfill requirem

I’d argue their app is so good and reliable that these other things don’t add enough to make them worth it. If I see something is out or I need something it only takes a second to buy it on my phone.

Exactly, you want space and a community that shares your values. And car ownership makes that possible and you’d rather that than the trade off. This is how most people feel.

Mechanical cheating is pretty common in sports where it’s viable. NASCAR crews were always finding ways to cheat so much that the saying “if you’re not cheating you’re not trying” was said without irony. Baseball has a history of guys corki

It’s pretty rational really. You can linger in mediocrity always at risk of being replaced or you could take PEDs and either become competitive and important or get caught and be replaced, the same outcome as not using. Especially if you ca

I think a plurality of people here are single and young and can’t possibly imagine not living in a city with all the social advantages and lifestyle perks being in one has. I did too when I was younger. But you quickly find there are better

Housing has always been expensive in cities. But the vast majority of people don’t want to live in them. The proof is how people left the cities after WW2 because technology made suburban living viable. Of course some people want to live in

Isn’t it possible to dislike woke and MAGA but realize woke has real institutional power over everything today and is a corrupt and unmeritocraric set of ideals. Where as MAGA has no real power or influence in anything of consequence and is

I’d disagree with that. Woke, although associated with democrats and liberals is really an illiberal, arbitrarily hyper-egalitarian, and poisoned set of ideals. It’s totally consistent to value some of the positions democrats currently hold

Yeah but it was all bullshit as you admitted. The idea of actually preventing things via actual medicine and hence “preventative medicine” is new. Whatever you’re describing is not that. Your entire comment is essentially “people used to pr

It’s such a weird pissing contest because if you’re alive today that means your ancestors survived to produce you and that’s saying something as most groups and cultures, etc have not survived to the present day. So just surviving as a grou

Besides being dirty I imagine how people thought of “healthcare” was very different. In that most people didn’t see a doctor until things were bad so they’re naturally worse afterwards. “Preventative medicine” is a recent idea.

It’s the same problem in golf. Equipment has gotten so powerful that the strategy of the game has fundamentally changed. They can not realistically continue to make courses longer. So they’re “rolling back” the ball which will limit drive d

I don't think there's any way to "fight the system" or w/e without becoming the system, or a part of it, as the system will consume whatever is useful and generates more power for itself. It co-ops everything. It&#x

No one is perfect. But overall his actions were brave and he paid a terrible price. The worst part is probably that what he published ended up making no real difference.

I think that qualifies. 12 years of no freedom. Happy he finally gets to move on with his life. A real brave journalist who actually spoke truth to power.

Considering he served 12 or so years I’m not sure he won anything. But it’s great he’s free, or it sounds like.
