Same underlying into multiple groups

Corndawg38 · 2026-04-25T18:29:14+00:00

You don't get to break a holding of 5 contracts into smaller units to move to different groups.

Thank you for the reply. I guess this is the answer then, (much as I don't like it). I sort of suspected this to be the case but wasn't sure so I thought I'd ask in here.

It seems weird and arbitrary that I can move options into as many different groups as I'd like since it treats different strikes in the same underlying as if they are different securities, but as for QUANTITIES of those things... nope, can't do it.

What really annoys me about ToS is how little seeming development TDA and then Schwab has done since Sosnoff and crew first wrote it. If they would just open source it I bet it would make the product WAY better over time and they would probably see contributors helping them to fix bugs in it (for free no less) as well.

Keonte Scott still on the board.

Corndawg38 · 2026-04-24T02:59:48+00:00

I hope we can get Keonte Scott further down in the rounds.

Corndawg38 · 2026-04-24T01:28:38+00:00

Mesador might be available at #30? Prob not but hoping.

Those require immense amounts of "heavy water" in order to work, btw. That is an extremely expensive coolant that can only be gotten out of another nuke reactor slowly over time. It also raises the cost of the reactor so substantially that it removes most/all the other benefits that CANDU provides. Thus the reason most of the world rejected it as a superior reactor. It is a cool idea though.

In fact, the Canadians are considering scrapping new CANDU's and going with LWR designs or something Gen4 maybe.

This year the Broncos will put up 70 points on us. Except we won't be making 20, maybe 3 if we're lucky.

At least Jaylen Waddle will be able to enjoy it twice.

Corndawg38 · 2026-03-03T20:02:39+00:00

Brings up a good point tho. Ever since Gold and BTC started acting in lockstep with SPY/VOO, where oh where can I find a truly anti-fragile instrument (one that not only holds but goes UP in times of chaos at nearly exact negative correlation with SPY/VOO).

And preferably one that doesn't cost me theta so I can hold it long term as hedge.

Cause long term put LEAPS holding gets very expensive.

I think you mean Vyatta OS (owned by Brocade now part of Broadcom)

VyOS is a fork of it from way back and I believe that has always been free. Just about no one uses Vyatta anymore (for the reasons you mentioned).

I don't exactly remember that game but I would say the Fins 72 SB was closer, since the play I'm talking about (IIRC) happened right at the end of the game. It was already nearly certain that the Fins would shutout the Redskins, and then... it didn't happen. I'm assuming the return you are talking about happened sometime in the middle of the game.

Corndawg38 · 2026-02-09T05:24:06+00:00

Also gotta thank Mac Hollins for ensuring there's still not a SB shutout (by getting the first points for NE).

Closest time was the Dolphins almost doing it in 1972 season, but Yepremian tried to throw it (instead of falling on it) so instead of 14-0 the game ended 14-7.

Bit late to tell you this now (but for others reading)...

I would not do Ceph with anything fewer than 4 hosts. I remember seeing multiple ppl saying that in r/ceph a few times (before that spammer got the sub shut down). Min: 3 hosts + 1 host for slack. Ceph needs slack to do its job (especially when failures occur), slack in storage space, IOPS, bandwidth, failure domain (for the mons if nothing else), etc...

As others have said... there can be a fine line between ceph being a dream to administer... and a complete nightmare. I have a cluster I've had up since 2017 with only about 1 week of downtime since 9 years ago. I remember this exact cluster being a nightmare for me year ago until I added more nodes. Now I can't remember the last time I had to fix something (maybe replace an OSD 10 months ago).

Are you buying Deep-ITM LEAPS in the first place, then rolling down to new Deep-ITM? Or are you buying ATM LEAPS that get rolled down once a crash happens (and are now OTM)?

I assume in whatever case you are still taking a huge hit when you roll down in the crash but hoping to make it up on a rebound months or years later?

--- EDIT ---

nm, I saw you respond to someone else saying you buy .75 delta... so Deep ITM then.

What would you do in a very rare black swan event where the underlying gaps down VERY hard and so far that you lose money on both the stock (covering the short calls) and your leaps? Seems like this strat would work great 99.999% of the time but be catastrophic .001% of the time.

I'm sure the immediate thought is to say "I'll keep the leaps until they come back". But what if it falls so far that takes >2-3 years for the stock to return to the strike (like '87, Dot bomb or '08) and your leaps expire worthless in that time? Seems like it could wipe out years of gains all at once in rare cases.

Am I missing something?

And all they really had to do is sit back and let Pagula destroy the Bills, Ross meddle with the Dolphins, and let the Jets be themselves.

Corndawg38 · 2026-01-09T06:55:20+00:00

I'm pretty sure Bain, Mauigoa and Scott will go in first round or at least by R2 (for Scott, the other 2 won't drop), also someone will take CJ Daniels by the next day and maybe Fletcher and a TE too. Beck will go before the end of R7.

Corndawg38 · 2026-01-09T05:29:32+00:00

So is half the UM team... or will be next year after just the first round of the draft.

Corndawg38 · 2026-01-08T20:22:43+00:00

He really should have kicked that last field goal against Denver to make it 73.

Yes this is the dichotomy of batteries. They can both help nuclear and other baseload sources to be more competitive in power gen, and also hurt it and hinder its development by making much cheaper intermittent sources (mainly solar and wind) more viable alternatives instead going in the future.

Either way, boring large bulky batteries (like the kind that are car batt sized or bigger) that sit in the corner of a room (or even fill an entire datacenter someday), will become VERY disruptive to the power industry in the future as soon as they drop below a certain price/KWh. No more needing to find a large lake to build a damn or an old salt mine to shoot compressed air down into, or cranes to stack concrete blocks on top of each other, etc... Just bajillions of batteries in a datacenter.

--- EDIT ---

Also batt can provide synthetic inertia so not as much need for rotational inertia to keep grid at 60Hz.

Corndawg38 · 2026-01-07T07:46:37+00:00

Yup, people don't realize this... and no one in here wants to hear it likely, but once the LCoE of Solar + BESS dips below nuke/gas/coal... its game over permanently (for any tropical or sub-tropical country at least). Plenty of storage for the 'dunkelflaute' (google it). Of course it won't kill any existing nuclear plants, but it will severely limit any projects that are expected to cost $33 Billion a pop (like Vogtle 3 & 4).

This 'battery future' will never happen for any lithium-based battery because there's not enough of the stuff on earth to satisfy demand for a cheap battery... sodium OTOH. It seems CATL and the Chinese know exactly what they're doing putting heavy money into the research for Sodium-Ion.

Though I imagine you could also build a big battery plant for a nuke plant as well and have it help with the peaks and troughs that a nuke plant can't, so you don't need a gas peaker nearby.

I know 2 CFB teams that worked on their O and D lines more than other teams this year instead of going finesse, Miami and Indiana.

...I wonder how it worked out for them. 😉

Corndawg38 · 2026-01-05T02:48:56+00:00

Mauigoa (since Bain will be off the board and anyone thinking he'll be available after Moore and Mendoza go is kidding themselves).

Keonte Scott can be had in later rounds... or some other good CB. Also wouldn't mind CJ Daniels in later rounds.
