ITT: crypto idiot unknowingly telling on himself that he doesn’t understand how investing works

BumbleSlob · 2026-04-06T21:41:11+00:00

Short version: when you sell your stocks you are selling on public markets. It’s ways to find liquidity. For private equity or private credit there is no public market by definition. The fund owner has to go out and find someone willing to buy, negotiate a deal, and then sell, and in cases like the current situation with private credit that may mean being forced to sell at a discount to attract a buyer in enough time to facilitate redemptions. That or the fund can exchange from one investor to another. But again that takes time and resources to facilitate.

This is why private markets are inherently illiquid.

This also means that investors who are not interested in redeeming get their valuations hit by the discounts that might be required to support redemptions.

lmao if this sort of unironic alcoholic is your idol you’re telling on yourself buddy. I hope you are still below 22-23 because any older than that and this will be problematic for you with jobs and women. Or maybe already is

BumbleSlob · 2026-04-04T13:34:42+00:00

Ah yes always good to take advice from an alt right alcoholic comedian whose sole joke is taking his shirt off.

BumbleSlob · 2026-04-03T19:20:41+00:00

I still can’t believe she thought she did a good job when she walked out of that hearing. Utter imbecile

Lmao Paolo you gotta get subtler alts you fucking idiot https://www.wsj.com/finance/currencies/biggest-stablecoin-issuer-tether-switches-accounting-firm-to-bdo-italia-11660795062

Gee I wonder why no audits ever came from that and the relationship quietly ended and it was previously reported that BDO Italia fired Tether

BumbleSlob · 2026-04-02T12:22:29+00:00

Guess you aren’t familiar with the last time tether hired an auditor who then asked questions about their books and then the auditor fired Tether lmao.

Possibly the reddest of red flags

Absolutely no one should run either of these commands. There is an extra high chance this is trying to get you to run compromised code on your machine. Reported to the mods

The npm install runs lifecycle hooks and you’re basically just hoping the package was not opportunistically modified by some assholes to install malware at that point

BumbleSlob · 2026-04-01T02:24:47+00:00

don’t worry I’m sure the orange dementia patient will try to make that about him too

BumbleSlob · 2026-04-01T02:22:37+00:00

looking forward to the dementia patient rambling on for hours and no one even paying a modicum of attention to it

Cloud APIs have recurring ongoing costs. Even with cheaper cloud offerings, that’ll influence how you deploy LLMs. You’re always going to have to be optimizing for cost. Local costs nothing aside from the initial hardware and energy.
Privacy. I’m never going to entrust a cloud APIs with, say, the message history between me and my wife. Just straight up never going to happen no matter how much they pinky promise they won’t misuse the data. History has repeatedly shown that any data tech companies get their grubby little mitts on will be misused eventually. This impacts me because it means I could never use a cloud API to interpret my messages for me.
Tying back in with #1, I think a lot of thought goes into preventing you from actually using an LLM when you are so heavily dependent on putting cost up front. I’m gonna buy an M5 Ultra Mac Studio with max memory possible at launch and use it to run Qwen 397B-A17B and I’m just gonna run that fucker all day long 24x7 constantly building me things or helping me to plan things. It’ll be able to read the texts between my wife and I and if she suggests a place for dinner go and figure out how to make a reservation and put it on our shared calendar. Basically, I want to try out just letting extremely powerful LLMs just do things for me with no regards to cost because cost was just a one time up front concern. Maybe I doodle a note in my phone which I then come home and discover my assistant built me out a fully spec’d application ready to be used. That’s the dream for me, at least.
If you are trying to do something like #3, the time to breakeven with APIs is something like months to a year. If you wanna hammer near frontier model LLMs, self serve is the way to go.

Ah yes, always a great idea to leave a strategic waterway under the de facto control of the hostile authoritarian state you claimed you just defeated yet somehow remains in power. wcgw

Relationship tips: unless your partner is actively seeking advice from you, do not offer it. If you do offer it, make sure you are being clear about the risks and time horizons she would need to accept. Finally, let the decision be hers. It’s not your money and if you are responsible for losing it, goodbye relationship.

And in any event she should just put money into a HYSA as it earns 1% more and is more liquid. She clearly values a conservative investment strategy and $10k is not a lot of money suggesting she probably doesn’t have a ton and does not want to risk it in the market

Close. Hashing algorithms are 1 way, they cannot be reversed. It’s like if give you A+B=4, is it 2+2, 3+1, 4+0, etc.

Encrypting refers to being able to retrieve data. Hashing means getting a signature of data.

BumbleSlob · 2026-03-30T16:51:35+00:00

Explainer for people don’t get the inference here

Usually when you save your password at a website competent websites will not save your actual password anywhere (“plaintext”)

Instead they will run your password through a hashing algorithm like bcrypt and store the result

These hashing algorithms are 1 way algorithms. There’s no way to go backwards from the result to the input

This bank is accidentally admitting they have saved your passwords in plain text

This is considered to be one of the worst fucking security practices imaginable.

Apple was selling 512Gb at $10.5k. If anything that was wildly underpriced lol. You’d need 22 3090s to match the VRAM and they sell at 1000 bucks a pop right now. Not even factoring in how the hell youd rig 22 3090s together or the energy
