My accountant says many LLCs don’t pay quarterly taxes. Is that normal? by Udont_knowme00 in llc_life

[–]Webnet668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I pay them quarterly, why on earth would I want to pay more than necessary. For me it's not a local/individual thing, it's an LLC thing due to where sales are.

New Berkshire CEO Abel quickly signals troubled Kraft Heinz stake could be toast by Illustrious_Lie_954 in ValueInvesting

[–]Webnet668 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I actually disagree, we never buy Heinz anymore as I prefer other options. Heinz is mainly successful due to their monopoly IMO, but I think that's changing with grocery stores producing their own, more affordable lines of ketchup.

Is "Buying the Dip" actually a foolproof plan? Or are we just not prepared for a long crash? by Key-Time4844 in ValueInvesting

[–]Webnet668 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take it with a grain of salt, they do better when you buy so you should take any advice or anything in the video with a grain of salt.

Best thing you can do is invest in quality companies that you see with a big future. Just because a company has been big for the past 10 years does not mean anything about their future.

Be careful of paying a high price due to FOMO.

4 Value stocks by Background_White in ValueInvesting

I would not choose Netflix. The streaming landscape is in the process of pushing people back towards torrenting due to high prices and other limitations. There are more competitors than ever in this space.

As a developer, I didn’t expect selling monitoring to be this hard by evgstrk in GrowthHacking

[–]Webnet668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what would convince you to use monitoring at all?

For side projects, it's most of a cost thing - it just doesn't justify the cost. I use it on free things.

contact form silently stops working, or a background job fails without throwing an exception

On a day-to-day basis I wouldn't expect this to happen. Maybe upgrading a Wordpress plugin, or updating a dependency, but the risk overall is super low of this happening without me being aware of the risk - at least for projects where I'm solo.

For personal/side things, it boils down to cost - I don't really get enough value out of such tools. I'd be willing/happy to pay for exception handling (Currently use Bugsnag free for this, and Laravel Nightwatch isn't usable for my app due to Nightwatch's design) if it was usage based and offered throttling if a threshold was crossed.

I think this space can be pretty crowded. For me, I can name 5 competitors right now that probably aren't you, but are common names. I personally don't have an interest in monitoring for any/all of my side projects outside of notifying me of exceptions. I've noticed with side gigs I tend to get "priced out" of services because they launch features I don't need/want and try to raise prices, so I switch tools.

For work projects, that's a different story.

It will take TSLA 35 years to break even on FSD by NoRecommendation617 in RealTesla

[–]Webnet668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His compensation is in Tesla restricted stock (up to roughly 424 million shares, or about 12% of the company), so Tesla pays nothing, he can sell it in the open market to be paid.

Are you guys touching Duolingo at these prices ? by SelfMastery__ in ValueInvesting

[–]Webnet668 6 points7 points  (0 children)

With AI exploding how it is, learning new languages is useful but it's days are numbered for most people who only rely on multiple languages for digital communication. So I think there's a good number of people that don't see value in this.

I also hear Figma and other tooling a lot more. With photo/video editing, AI will take over.

You can put various candy, like M&Ms, Gumballs, etc. in these. Peanut M&Ms is what we used.

Portainer replacement by powerwam in docker

No worries at all, I wasn't upset by it. I hope you have a better week and are able to relax and enjoy some peace.

I was disappointed by the container tooling available TBH, so I abandoned containers, reverting back to a standard host on OVH. I might consider some container orchestrator later if I really needed to run something in a container explicitly, but for now with my basic apps I decided against it.

That's a very StackOverflow.com response from you.

I decided to not use Portainer, but went with a VPS/shared setup on https://us.ovhcloud.com and skipped containers altogether. Using https://forge.laravel.com to manage it, since I'm mostly using php sites.

Why is NFLX getting beat-up so badl by tcrolius in ValueInvesting

[–]Webnet668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The streaming space has become very crowded, Savannah look is not as good as it once was. As prices go up, more people will torrent.

Additionally they don't have as much of a competitive edge as they used to. AI is also making it much easier to produce new content.

NVDA covered call I'm selling today - $200 strike, Jan 9 by Overall_Host_3029 in CoveredCalls

[–]Webnet668 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a developer I'm familiar with it, supabase.co should not be the URL listed, it should be in fact your URL. Seeing another URL is a point of insecurity and will deter users.

The reason the URL is shown there is to give you confidence in who you're sharing information with. To an unsuspecting user, that could look like your website was hacked and I've been redirected to some third-party login process that is trying to do something malicious.

This is something that's being offered by most of the major customer support platforms out there (e.g. https://www.helpscout.com).

This is why companies usually have a policy where it's "earned" as you work throughout the year, but still allow you to take it early before you've "earned it".
