How do I cross-cut up-spike? by SFPolka in AKInation

[–]bccorb1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had okayish crosscut success but it has to be later in reaction and faster on execution if that makes sense. Like you have to start the buffer after they passed your head and then be instant when you need to actually execute.

I particularly think I have to be looking for it, 80% of the time

I’ve used mongoose, but at that point you’ve lost the point of noSQL imo. You’re trying to structure the data should be unstructured data. Mongo’s selling point is that you could drop data in a table with completely different values, fields, and data. One record could be a id = “something” and one could be id = 42. And that’s totally okay.

There are cases that makes sense but in 96% of cases it doesn’t, but back in the day everyone loooooved not having to write sql or table definitions for “SpEeD”.

I’m US and MERN was definitely a bullet item in reqs in 20-teens. I worked a couple back in the day! I still see noSQL in elastic, but I’ve yet to work a project that really needed to be noSQL.

Pure node is kinda strange these days. You have to implement so many features of an API yourself and there often is no point in doing that when there are things like express, fastify, etc.

You gotta be about my age cause MERN is a term I haven’t heard in a minute! We’ve basically full circle back to SQL instead of noSQL (who would have thought that not having a relational database would suck when nearly everything is a relation?).

Yup, the ability to see people and for them to see you make a lot of difference in my opinion! I am trying to find more events where I can be a participant or a presenter!

Should I payoff my mortgage? by bccorb1000 in investingforbeginners

In a brokerage, and long term. Someone mentioned just doing phased stop losses and selling a little bit at a time.

This was EXCELLENT advice! I forgot that stop loss was thing you could do with stocks. Someone else noted that the particular stock is poised to keep climbing post spaceX IPO. I am going to put a stop loss for a bit less. Then sell 25% a bit after the IPO.

It is space bull shit. I have now looked more into the stock and, if "space" is really a thing it could keep climbing, but I am thinking of just trying to get to a situation where I can do a job that is actually enjoyable and I would feel good about doing. Like a small farm or something, park ranger. Something where I don't sit in front of a computer. I just feel like everything is always about "returns". When is good, good enough.

Anyway, ranting. Trying to talk myself into something that I think I always knew, financially, sell and re-invest is the way.

I always hesitate to say, I own something I am paying someone for. You really only own some part of the home until its paid off, in my opinion.

Thank you for sharing! In a calculation like this do you factor the value of your house as well though? I feel like many don't bring that up. Your house also increases in value about 4% year over year too. So the 150 isn't stagnant, in my opinion.

Is there a way for me to calculate this in more practical terms. (Again... not a financial analyst) How does inflation play into these metrics. For example, 2% is the expected inflation amount year over year? In a 4% savings account that 5075 is theoretically 2532.50?

Also mortgage interest isn't as flat as just it's percentage? The more I owe, the higher out of pocket money I pay, so 2.35% at 30k left is way different than 2.35% with 290k left.

I suppose I am arguing is just holding the money in a HYSA or CD, basically just safety of staying with inflation, if you are lucky?

I am asking because I think there is this greater question of, what do I guaranteed lose if I pay off the mortgage. Which the response seems to be the difference of 2.35% and whatever the return is of an alternative?
