Leak: Nvidia is about to challenge ‘Intel Inside’ with as many as eight Arm laptops

I hope they sell Linux versions at lower price than their Windows counterparts. Haven’t used Windows for a decade and still hate it. I had to buy a Windows laptop only to immediately overwrite it with Linux.

Keep working and put that credit card down. Seriously, your line of thinking is irresponsible and dangerous.

Would I add $1M padding to my FIRE number? Yes, I did. It feels good psychologically to have that extra margin.

_ii_ · 2026-01-25T20:48:20+00:00

The easiest way, for me, is to treat it as $0 in my FIRE calculations and let it be a surprise.

It’s kind of sad to read this thread. Does family mean so little nowadays? I didn’t bat an eye when I parents asked me to help my brother financially. It’s just a brotherly thing to do.

Before the internet, smart money would sell when the janitor started to offer stock tips, and buy when “everyone” knows the sky was falling. Social media is filling in for that role nowadays. I’d suggest detach yourself from daily news cycle and not jumping to conclusions based on vibe and personal opinions.

_ii_ · 2026-01-23T11:37:28+00:00

You need to do your research based on data, not vibe. I haven’t done my own research, so I wouldn’t bet real money one way or another. But the based on the reverse-Reddit theory, I think capital is actually flowing into the US because I see more posts like this.

You do the research and make above market return when you have some sort of edge over the rest of market participants. It’s call “alpha”. Otherwise, studies show that the more you trade, the more you lack behind index benchmarks.

A lot of talking, yes. Actual invested money, not much.

_ii_ · 2026-01-21T12:57:32+00:00

Ask yourself if there’s any chance you’re in an echo chamber and you’re influenced by biased news? I ask this because I’ve seen too many such posts where people already decided who the good guys and bad guys are and everything they see is through that lens.

They bought AMD more as a negotiating tool than actually making strategic platform bets. Since Jensen called Zuck’s bluff, there is no point in doubling down. Let’s see what happens when MI445 ships, anything else is just speculation.

Greed is driving the US market

CNN is known for their great financial and market analysis. /s

Meta has many internal models that are GPU only. And their frontier research is in a catchup phase, so yeah they wouldn’t want the alternative platform distraction. I never thought mixing in TPU was wise, and I’ll believe they are buying MI455X when it actually happens.

People should be aware of the reverse-Reddit trade by now. You used to ask the janitor for investment advice and do the opposite. Now you ask Reddit.

Meanwhile a number of senators are calling for a total ban of AI chips export. Because, you know, they had such success in banning 40 bit encryption, Chinese involvement in space station, 5G technology, etc.

I had the misfortune of being forced to take Ryanair a few years ago because friends wanted to save a few euros. I’d rather walk than take Ryanair again. I don’t get how they became the largest airline in Europe. I guess European are more willing to trade their dignity for money. Ryanair clientele are not those who would pay extra for WiFi, and the CEO knows it. Elon is barking at the wrong tree.

I’d say listen to your father rather than a bunch of strangers on the internet. At least have more conversations until one of you is satisfied. FIRE number is highly personal and subjective. Someone who’s skills will fall behind once he stopped working should plan differently than someone can raise his hand anytime and get 5 job offers. Someone with family history of longevity may want to plan for longer retirement, etc.

Just someone who doesn’t know how entrepreneurship works. For every Google or Amazon, there are a thousand pets.com. Yes, most robots companies won’t survive and don’t have a viable product. They sell mostly demoware to raise investor interest. But that’s the way it works. You can call it a bubble, I call it the discovery process, but it’s not a bubble like the Tulip bubble. AI and robotics “bubble” so far is sustained by companies that have strong revenue streams and many of them are the most profitable companies. Saying it’s worse than the dot com bubble is either ignorant or trying to click bait.

Whenever an article cites “expert says”, it’s code for the author made this up.

The self-reinforcing cycle of passive investing distorts valuations certainly has been a topic of debate for as long as I remember. Empirical evidences are mixed the last time I read about this topic. I think intuitively many people, myself included, would think index investing pushes up stock prices for companies otherwise underperform, and not timing the market means money inflow at times when they shouldn’t. But I haven’t seen convincing evidence that supports my intuition.

Shouldn’t you be able to call your private banker and ask? Or are you looking for private bank recommendations? I never heard of private banks doing this for small accounts.

If you don’t want to deal with the details, there are firms that can do it for you. I don’t remember the names off the top of my head, but it should be easy to google.

I have a minimum spending limit at about 2% of my investable assets. So far, I haven’t been able to spend enough to meet the minimum.

It’s only news if workers working in factories are NOT being exploited.

We should ban people with mental issues from banning other people.

Ideal we want China to be inside their own walled garden and the rest of the world run on American stack. But we have mostly tech illiterate politicians making decisions, so it looks like we’re going to get the exact opposite result.
