That must have been soul-crushing… On the other hand, you get a second chance where you will do much better! Do not fret about the past mistakes, only think of how you will do well in the future.
In some countries (like mine), we don’t have second chance like that… You are in much better position than us!


I feel like they are confounding LLMs AND general AI/ML. The latter is useful in many areas, while the former is mostly hype imo.

Maybe I should admit defeat and go back to reddit… Perhaps everyone is supposed to be slaves to the shareholders
This made me realize that I am a nerd. Sad.


Why is this painful truth not the top comment? Maybe people are still hopeful after all the time?

Not so fast, lemming. My bet got back to profit, theoretically I can close it now. I am waiting, though. If things go awry, I can always close at a small loss when my stop-loss is reached. Never do naked bets.
Yeah, the 2nd monitor briefly turns itself off and on in the same moment the 1st monitor tears. I will try to follow the steps.
It only happens in one monitor, another monitor is completely fine - although another monitor flicker when the monitor tears. I will check the monitor with other hardware (e.g. laptops). The connection type is HDMI, sadly the monitor does not seem to have DisplayPort connection.
First of all, thanks a lot! I should try different ones. To try the different ports, I need to open up the case, right? That sounds like work, but maybe that’s unavoidable. Guess I should check if the tearing occurs with laptops first.
Strangely, the tearing seems to happen more frequently in Linux. I am not sure how… Also, turning the monitor off and on briefly fixes the tearing. Does it say anything about it? Plus, it only happens in one monitor, another monitor is completely fine - although another monitor flicker when the monitor tears.


Microsoft just has so many users unwilling to change, that I do not foresee that happening. Just 10% of people switching to Linux would be absolute win for me.

Sorry, I could not resist the impulse, and am now shorting it.

While good advice, I don’t think that will help. When things would go downhill, most stocks will follow, and it is hard to know which ones would be exceptions.

Covid was a black swan event, so no one envisioned both the lockdown and Fed intervention. There is no way it was priced in.
On the other hand, Fed lowering rates has already been talked about for years. High probability it was priced in.

I disagree that FED lowering interest rate means stocks will be ballooning. Often, lowering rates mean the economy is bad enough to do that, so there has been instances where stocks went down with interest rates.
Also considering how most market participants are talking that rates are going to be lowered, I believe it is already priced in.

Yeah, this is exactly why stop-loss exists, and you should ideally open and close shorts pretty quickly.

Great points, thanks!! Dunno if it could stop my impulse, but gotta try… Maybe options are safer, I gotta look into it.
By the way, I think there is no way other stocks would do well if the bubble ever bursts, so I believe it’s better to invest in the bubble if it is not bursting - I actually have some nuclear energy stocks for this purpose. Need to sell them at some point…
It is impossible to exactly time the market, so I should hold my impulse, but I think there would be chart signals that would show that it is crashing.
It exerts too much Control to the users.
I’ll see myself out


Now, Mint should support the need decently enough, although it takes some setup. You can look up for language setup settings, I found that fctix works well nowadays.
It lists no alternative to actual(-budget) :( I don’t have time to create my own alternative, maybe I should go back to spreadsheets?
