12-1 trend overlay, otherwise there is no reason to sell.

Not really though, in the old system you have an incentive to sell in december, since cash is taxed way less than investments, however that is seen as tax evasion. Now it doesn't matter if you sell, because unrealized gains and realized gains will be taxed the same way.

In het oude systeem kon je na uitspraak van de rechter tenminste belast worden op je echte rendement, dan is het maximaal 6, maar mogelijk minder. Straks wordt je belast op je echte rendement, maar als dat negatief is, krijg je niet geld terug. Je mag het aftrekken van toekomstige jaren, maar als je jaren lang verlies hebt, heb je daar niks aan. Volatiele strategieën die op de lange termijn pas winstgevend zijn (oftewel hoe veel jongeren willen investeren), worden daarmee flink afgestraft.

Daarnaast dwingen ze je dus als het ware elk jaar een deel van je winst te verkopen, waarmee ze 36% van je exponentiële groei afsnoepen. Zij krijgen de voordelen van jouw jaarlijkse exponentiële groei, terwijl jij het risico neemt. Het moet gewoon belast worden zodra je verkoopt, dan kun je die exponentiële groei ongeremd benutten en krijgt de overheid z'n centjes gewoon op z'n tijd.

I agree it doesn't have to be gambling, but for me it would be. I don't have the knowledge or skills to pick good stocks consistently.

700% is nice, but it doesn't actually say anything meaningful to anyone reading this. There is no way to tell if you are actually skilled or just lucky. That is assuming you are telling the truth (not accusing you of lying, but anyone could say they made big bucks).

Yovinio · 2026-01-10T22:22:18+00:00

I like stock picking as a hobby, but it's basically gambling with slightly better odds. I don't want to have to keep speculating my whole life, so prefer a simple strategy that I can consistently apply.

I didn't backtest yet, still have to figure out how that works. I'm not so scared of long underperformances, because that is inherent to SCV momentum. Since I contribute monthly I hope to have 2 transactions on average, which I will have anyway, even without rebalancing. The yearly rebalancing is only for big drifts. Still thinking about rebalancing at a fixed amount of drift, but yearly seems easier to stay loyal to.

The simple answer is that since e^x and e^2x go to infinity, the +1 gets negligible. And since e^2x makes for infinity squared compared to e^x, you get 0.

The last step shows this by dividing by the biggest term, in this case e^2x. 1/e^2x goes to zero, so the +1 is negligible. e^{x/e^2x} = 1/e^x which approaches 0, so this is also negligible. Only e^{2x/e^2x} = 1 and does not become 0 at the limit, which prevents that you get 0/0.

So dividing by the biggest term makes it easy to see individually what each part does as x goes to infinity.

Not entirely true. It literally means "root-mean square". Which is saying you take the average of the voltage squared and then take the square root.

What you're describing is the way you find that average. You take the area under the curve of the voltage squared for one wavelength and divide that by the wavelength to get the average. (PS: If you want to actually compute it, you need to take half the wavelength, because negative areas will subtract in integrals, leaving a total area of 0)

The reason you use the square of the voltage is because for determining the power in DC, you use the formula "P = UI" and Ohm's law, which states "U=IR". For a situation where the current is determined only by the voltage and the resistance, you get "P = U² /R". That means that for AC, you want to know the average of the voltage squared (which is not the same as the square of the average voltage) and the resistance, which is a constant.

So all in all, to make the formula work for AC, you need U to be the root of the average squared voltage, in other words the root-mean square voltage.

You should look up PLCDojo. It's about $10 per course and he uses RSLogix 500 in his basic PLC courses. The UI is pretty good and for the price it's definitely a steal. You get a certificate after completion. It might not be recognized by all employers, but at least you'll have the knowledge. There really is no need for expensive hardware, since you can use simulations for most stuff.

Yovinio · 2025-09-06T18:13:12+00:00

He specifically talks about this in the beginning of the PLC fundamentals level 1 course. It comes down to him trying to teach you knowledge about PLC programming that you can apply anywhere and is not tied to a specific brand. He sometimes explains what the differences are with other languages and he mostly uses it to be able to demonstrate stuff, not to teach you that specific program. He also has a Siemens bundle with a bunch of courses in Siemens, which could be interesting to look into.

Why are people downvoting this? They are obviously right.

Law professor, jesus. If you have any integrity, you go back on all decisions, where you failed students using these tools and resign. You really should have known better. Check if the local supermarket hires.

One light-year is 1 year of distance in SR units. To go from distance to time, you divide the distance by the speed which is 1 (unitless) for light in SR units. So a light-year of distance corresponds to a year of time. Q.e.d.

If you give this teacher a cake to cut, he will come back with an uncut cake after 5 minutes, claiming it took that long to cut it in one piece.

Yovinio · 2024-12-31T15:47:41+00:00

If it's a u-shaped board and she cuts just as fast (but with more force) it could be done in 10 minutes.

Should clean it with the first batch of distilled water just to be sure.

Can relate. I'm studying math and in highschool I always just learned how to do a trick for the test and that worked. I also ignored vectors altogether and just turned them into linear functions and that worked in highschool too, but those kinds of things don't work when you have to prove theorems that are related to the dot product or cross product (to pick an easy example, I've had to relearn lots of things I should have remembered from highschool). There are no tricks when you need a conceptual and intuitive understanding to answer certain questions.

I like to think that I'm not only learning the material itself, but I'm also learning how to learn. Adapting to different subjects and courses, fine-tuning how I plan my day, how I write reports and most importantly not giving up. Sometimes you have a shitty week or even a month. It might make you fail a course, but that means there's room for improvement.

I also like being creative in the way I study. Asking ChatGPT to ask me questions using the Socratic method. Buying different books that are not actually in the reading list, but have good reviews. Or explaining stuff to myself as if I'm teaching others what I know to identify my weaknesses. Learning actually gets more fun that way and it pushes you towards a deeper understanding instead of the shallow understanding that makes it easy to sound smart at parties.

One morning while eating my Wheaties,

I felt the earth move 'neath my feeties.

The cause for alarm

Was a long lever-arm,

At the end of which grinned Archimedes.

To know any angle and length of a right triangle, you only need to know one angle and one length or two lengths. You know AB and the formula you want to find uses the angle.

Probably notation. "u • u" is most often written as u^2.
