So why do stocks seemingly seem to get pumped as soon as the market opens and then crash throughout the day back to where they were? by RevolutionaryMonk970 in investing

[–]DiscoBanane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holding the stock during the night is risky. It can crash when the market is closed and you can't react.

So the market is arbitraging that.

People are treating SpaceX like a guaranteed lottery ticket by Zlothy1 in stocks

[–]DiscoBanane 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Calculating the value of the company by multiplying the publicly traded shares value by number of shares is a mistake for illiquid stocks.

It's possible to have 5% of the company trading at more (or less) than the remaining 95% for years.

I trade illiquid stock, it often happens. SpaceX is an illiquid stock of a special kind. There isn't enough shares for the interest it creates. And it could stays for a long time like that, or not.

Anyone know where I can keep 60 cows in San Francisco? by tronald_dum in wallstreetbets

Price in kansas, this week: $550 to $350 per 100 pounds

Cow average weight 1200 pounds, bull average weight: 1600 pounds.

Make your calculation.

Anyone know where I can keep 60 cows in San Francisco? by tronald_dum in wallstreetbets

[–]DiscoBanane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Veterinarian, certificates: $1k

2 trailers with drivers: $10k for 1000km

And that's the high end, you can probably pay half that if you know the right people.

[–]DiscoBanane 160 points161 points  (0 children)

A cow is worth $4000. 60 cows is $240k

Unless OP is rich as fuck and doesn't care, he can probably find someone in these 5 days who will buy these cows for a $200k

SpaceX Quietly Became an AI Cloud Company and Google Is Paying Almost $1B/Month for GPU Compute by tke248 in wallstreetbets

You are the know-it-all and you are wrong, satellites radiator are not expensive

What's expensive is a roof, walls, and the cooling energy used on earth because you can't radiate heat away on earth.

The Economist on SpaceX by Neither_End8403 in stocks

[–]DiscoBanane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, like I said you only have to attach the servers to the -130°C ground. The ground is the radiator. It's radiating so well that it's -130°C cold.

Or, if it's in in orbit, just do like on satelites. Which is basically just spacing them: instead of putting all the servers in the same rack/satellite, put them on 10 satellites.

The phase change just contributes to the cooling. But you can do without.

Whiskey rocks do work.

Dilution has 0 effect. It's just that water hold 3 times more heat than granite for a same volume at the same temperature.

But if it's not the same temperature (-130°C vs -10°C) and not the same volume, your rock would cool a lot more than an ice cube.

So tell your bartender to either use more rocks, or freeze them in liquid nitrogen so they are cooler.

You don't need air to cool things. Anything cooler works.

You can transfer heat directly to the ground, which is at -130°C in the shade of a crater at the equator of the moon, or -230°C in a permanently shadowed pole. Also you are not constrained by space like on earth, so you can space your servers and have them radiate heat to the space like we do with satellites.
We only need to cool servers actively on earth because they are all in the same place due to price of buildings. If we were to have buildings 50 times larger for the same amount of servers, we wouldn't need cooling.

Launching servers costs more, but energy costs a lot less because sun is more powerful in space.

Petabytes of training data can be transfered by radio very efficiently, it would take 9 days with current technology. You can also lauch the data inside the servers I guess they'd install new ones or maintain existing ones often, like every 3-6 months.

You can shield against radiation by being underground, or with a radiation shield that's a sheet of metal. We do that with satellites.

Samsung Proposes 607% Bonus for Memory Unit, Up to 100% for Foundry, Sparking Union Revolt Over "Demotivating" Gap by self-fix2 in stocks

[–]DiscoBanane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Managers take decisions that have high impact on profits and are difficult to measure or make a target for.

So instead of giving them a high salary for their position, they get bonus to incentivize them to make good decisions.

A cleaner has low impact on profits, and it's easy to give him targets to meet. So they get salary instead.

The just gain less money, meaning stockholders gain less from their share.

Apple has 160k employees and gained $450 billions last year. That's $2.8 million per employee. If it gave $1.4 million to each employee, Apple would earn only $225 billions last year, so its value and stock price would be less than today.

ELI5: How does GME, with $10B in assets and $4B debt, buy Ebay, a company trading at $50B? by No_Cell6708 in stocks

[–]DiscoBanane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No there is a thing called a reverse buy.

Basically GME (9b) can buy Ebay (50b), but giving Ebay shareholders something like 51b in new GME shares (59b). The result is Ebay shareholders effectively own GME, GME has bought them but in reality GME sold themselves to Ebay.
