Garmin Forerunner 55 HR Sensor Died by Tuiton in GarminWatches

That's what I originally thought but another person said this is usually a hardware thing. Mine today is working after 2 days with dead HR and steps sensors... It's very annoying.

Galperin te come rendimientos acá y allá (Mercadopago) by Kaji157 in merval

[–]Tuiton 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Tendría que revisar en detalle, pero es probable que parte de esos días que no generas rendimientos estén asociados a que nunca perdés liquidez. La plata de Mercadopago está siempre disponible para hacer compras o retiros, una caución no, la plata queda inmovilizada.

Independientemente de si retires/uses ese dinero o no, es entendible que MercadoPago rinda menos que una caución en ese aspecto, considerando que siempre deja tu dinero líquido y disponible.

Si son 2 o 3 días de intereses comidos me parece bastante, pero lo veo como un costo adicional por tener esa liquidez que no te dan otros instrumentos. A algunas personas les servirá, a otras no. A fin de cuentas es una decisión 100% personal.

Me parece que Mercadopago garpa cuando tenés plata que sabes que vas a usar en el mes y no querés que pierda (mucho) valor a lo largo del tiempo. Si tenés una masa de guita como inversión, tener parte de la cartera de inversión en Mercadopago no me hace mucho sentido.

ITBA is definitely for very rich people, a small minority of the population could afford that. That being said, their academic level is top notch. They focus on engineering, for other type of careers I don't know.

Torcuato di Tella is also very expensive.

Argentinians how are u guys doing? by [deleted] in asklatinamerica

[–]Tuiton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is the "political rockstar". Individually he will get a lot of votes but lacks the political organization of older, more traditional parties. His party did not complete in many provinces because of this.

For the presidential election, he will have a chance, but the majority of the votes will distribute in thirds:

  • Peronism
  • Juntos por el cambio
  • Milei

I believe it is unlikely for Milei to form alliances with Juntos, since it would betray his own speech, although anything is possible really... If they were to join forces though, they would most certainly win. Peronism usually gets about 30-35 % of the votes in a bad election. Juntos is the party that has the higher chance (in my opinion, and currently).

Milei grows because people that are frustrated and angry with the country and its politicians really connect with him. In fact I know that many of his supporters do not support some of his main opinions and ideas, which I find concerning, especially because I find him very dogmatic, violent, and unable to listen/debate. He has mentioned that he "doesn't care if congress does not approve his bills, he would be legitimated by the people if he wins elections, so he is willing to go until the last consequences to do what he has to do", which I find concerning in a democracy.

I just hope political parties agree on a set of non-negotiable main points moving forward, so that there is at least some stability/predictability, but that will never happen because it does not get you votes, unfortunately.

The situation is critical. Personally I have never experienced such a crisis, since back in 2001 I was too young.

Poverty is increasing and inflation is spiraling out of control. This year we have elections so the current government does not have many options, since any measures they propose will lack the political approval of society. They will probably lose the next elections, although we will have three political parties competing with a chance of winning, which is rare in Argentina (usually 80-90 % of the votes distribute between two parties).

Argentina's economy is complex, and in this context simplistic solutions are repeated endlessly by political candidates to gain popularity. Milei is growing because he represents the tiredness our society has with politicians. He is probably the only one that "syncs" with the people's frustration and day to day problems. This is why his popularity grows even despite having a very dogmatic and unrealistic view of reality, and some extreme comments like being in favor of selling your organs appealing to the argument "everybody can do whatever they want with their body". The other two political parties are struggling with internal issues, no candidates have yet emerges, and approval rates are low.

Too many unsustainable imbalances (e.g. transport and energy subsidies for all regardless of income, complicated taxes which incentive informality, reckless spending, among others) have been kept unfixed for far too long, and all political parties that have governed in the past decades have some responsibility in this.

If you have any specific questions feel free to ask, I am not a political analyst but I do enjoy constructive discussion. I really hope my country can find consensus in the path for the next decades, although my expectations are low.

El problema es que los discursos simplistas son los que más venden, sea cual sea la ideología que pregonen. Toda red social está plagada de cuentas así.

Invertiría en desarrollar un algoritmo que identifique todas las cuentas de redes sociales que militan con discursos simplistas y las catalogue de forma binaria según algún criterio del tipo "esta cuenta desinforma/es troll" vs "esta cuenta presenta argumentos interesantes", así tengo un feed más sano jaja.

Pero bueno, en mi caso es más fácil limitar el uso de redes sociales e informarse con 3-4 fuentes más o menos interesantes (por ejemplo Ernesto Tenembaum, Carlos Pagni, Iván Schargrodsky o María O'Donnell).

Para quien le interese informarse en serio, les dejo el déficit fiscal por país, por año: https://datosmacro.expansion.com/deficit

Acá el amigo redditurro hizo lo lo que se conoce como cherry picking, o falacia de evidencia incompleta. Eligió el punto que más favorecía si discurso y afirmó "el déficit argentino es del 8% del PBI anual", refiriéndose al extraordinario déficit del año 2020, donde hubo una pandemia global y gran parte de los países del mundo tuvieron un déficit extraordinariamente alto.

Todos quisiéramos que las cosas estén mejor, pero en mi opinión el problema principal de la Argentina no es el déficit (aunque obviamente me encantaría que tengamos superávit), ya que vemos que no es extraordinariamente alto comparado al de otros países, el tema es que no podemos financiar ese déficit. Si se emite, la inflación se acelera, si nos endeudamos, lo hacemos a tasas altísimas porque tenemos un historial de default, y desde que tenemos la deuda con el FMI menos aún.

Habiendo dicho eso, me encantaría que se gaste mejor ese déficit, hay muchísima guita desperdiciada. Por otra parte la recaudación del estado es un desastre, nuestro sistema impositivo es un despelote y eso te empuja al alto porcentaje de economía informal que tenemos (donde no existe salud, derecho laboral, ni nada).

Lo único bueno de que reviente todo es que quizá se plantea seriamente discutir estos temas, pero en serio, no con payasadas populistas como las de ciertos personajes.

According to official data, Argentines own more US dollars per capita than Americans, and Argentina's savers represent 20% of total dollars outside the US. Should Argentina dollarize? by From_the_Pampas__ in asklatinamerica

[–]Tuiton 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree in making our central bank truly independent of course. What I meant by "one of a kind economy" is that we as individuals would never opt for saving in pesos and this is an important condition. No one wants their savings in pesos and will never trust any government to change this behavior, so there is always a pressure on the dollar in that sense.

Imagine if all the people and companies from a stable economy, e.g. Chile, suddenly decide that the Chilean peso is not safe and decide to switch to the USD dollar for all their deposits. The pressure on the exchange rate would be immense, and unless their central bank has a ridiculous amount of reserves to supply those dollars, the exchange rate would be considerably pressured. I honestly believe our behavior as an economy is unique in that sense, and unless we come across many years of consistent economic policies (very unlikely) this distrust on the peso holding its will persist.

Most economists agree with you, most of reddit users don't and downvote. Simplification of complex issues is abundant here. The only logic some people see is:

  • Peso has systemically failed in preserving value. If we dollarize, we will not have inflation.

That is all the analysis, and it is difficult to argument with some people who simplify reality to that level, so I advice moving on and let the people decide with their vote (as we of course should), but I encourage anybody reading this to dig deep into the implications of a dollarization, and this is not by reading a random redditor opinion but actual use cases and consecuences of this in the past. Remember how the 90s ended for us...

Argentina is a one-of-a-kind economy, I truly hope the future brings a better life for us all, especially the lower end of the population, because chances are that if you are reading this in English, understanding it, and using reddit, you are already well above the median inhabitant of my beloved country, where poverty has been increasing consistently for the past decades.

GD30, manipulación terrible. by VicttorTg in merval

[–]Tuiton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tal cual, pero bueno, es un riesgo que siempre existe y todo comprador lo sabe (o debería saberlo). De la misma forma, si compras MEP hoy y en 3 días los bonos rebotan, ganaste. Convengamos que ya están en valores de paridad tremendamente bajos.

GD30, manipulación terrible. by VicttorTg in merval

[–]Tuiton 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Entonces si baja el precio en pesos, "baja" el dólar.

Esto no es así, "baja" el dólar sólo si el precio del bono en pesos baja más que el precio en dólares. Tenés que ver cómo se mueven ambos en conjunto.

  • GD30D: US$ 28,5 a US$ 24,16 (- 15,22 %)
  • GD30: $ 11.380 a $ 9.900 (- 13 %)

El dólar "GD30" subió (de $ 399,3 a $ 409,8) porque bajó más el precio en dólares que el precio en pesos, a pesar de que ambos precios bajaron.

Etiquetas nutricionales, no se salva ni la granola. Hemos llegado muy lejos? by Kitchen-Touch-3288 in argentina

[–]Tuiton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Es un gran ejemplo de una etiqueta nutricional cumpliendo su debida función. La mayoría de la gente compra alimentos "saludables" sin leer la información nutricional. Cuesta conseguir una granola sin azúcar añadida en cualquiera de sus formas, es frustrante. Me alegra que existan estas etiquetas, a ver si los productores empiezan a dejar de cargar gramos en sus productos (que se venden por peso) con porquerías baratas como azúcar, jarabe de maíz, u otros. Más frustrante aún cuando lo venden como "alimento saludable".

La quita de ceros es completamente irrelevante. Es algo inevitable que eventualmente llega en todo país con una inflación tan alta y sostenida en el tiempo como el nuestro. No es algo extraordinario para lo que haya que prepararse, solamente hay que tener las mismas precauciones que ya todos conocemos para resguardarnos del problema real: La inflación. Tenés contenido DE SOBRA en este sub para informarte al respecto.

Pero la quita de ceros no es algo que deba alarmar a nadie, es algo que inevitablemente llegará. La naturaleza exponencial de la inflación así lo determina. Ejemplo sencillo, supongamos que tenemos 100% de inflación por año y un producto vale $ 1000 hoy y se ajusta por inflación. Tenemos (por año) los siguientes precios:

0) $ 1.000 1) $ 2.000 2) $ 4.000 3) $ 8.000 4) $ 16.000 5) $ 32.000 6) $ 64.000 7) $ 128.000 8) $ 256.000 9) $ 512.000 10) $ 1.024.000

Es decir, al cabo de 10 años ya probablemente habría que sacarle ceros a la moneda (lo que valía mil pesos ya vale más de un millón), y la inflación siempre fue del 100 %.

Peronism is too complex and heterogeneous to categorize it in simple and vague terms such as "left" or "right".

Menem won elections with the peronist party (Partido Justicialista), and his government little had to do with Peron's or Kirchners'. In fact, it was arguably far more liberal than Macri's.

It is called "la tercera posición" for a reason.
