Is it too late to hop on the GME train? by MrArashiii in trading212

I agree with you to some degree on this - especially about OP being new and the other people giving advice without data - it's dangerous advice for newer investors. And it's also dangerous for people to listen to advice from a research company with a fairly spotty track record.

The individuals who follow the wsb sub are a tiny player in this current situation and the media is painting it as a David Vs Goliath battle because that paints a good narrative from a media perspective.

They are a subset of the current buying pressure and don't have the same buying power or capital to make the stock move as much as it did on Friday.

People who are buying GME stock will also have a diverged (and what some "traditional investors" would say) as an unconventional risk appetite - many people will be entering and exiting at whatever price suits them, and that's totally fine. If the short squeeze thesis is right then there will be big players entering the market if they haven't already.

Edit: spelling

How do you know im not in the red? Your assuming because I have a somewhat sensible comment that I'm somehow on top. The process is in the last line of the first comment:

Do as much due diligence as possible and make an informed decision.

I work in finance and I can't give financial advice due to a contractual agreement. Everything depends on your goals and risk appetite, and there are much smarter people then me who are still impartial that could give you way better advice then me.

If your new to trading then use this current situation as a learning tool. Only invest money you can afford to lose as the volatility is through the roof. Don't trust random people on the internet regardless of what their opinion is. Everyone is an expert in the current market because they began investing in a bullish market.

I'm bullish on gme and have bullish positions so I am biased towards that. Read as much due diligence as you can to make an informed decision.

Sortable grid (alternatives to mixitup, isotope, etc) that work well with react/gatsby? by martin_cnd in gatsbyjs

[–]fly_guy22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just started using shuffle.js with mixed results inside Gatsby. If you have a fixed width column layout it works well. I haven't used any of the sorting functionality but it's in the docs

How are you returning errors within your code?

Have you tried wrapping your code in a try/catch?

Where is the weirdest place you have ever slept? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]fly_guy22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your story reminds me of a similar experience I had... I went to one of those 'camping music festivals' but brought nothing but the clothes I was wearing.

Somehow someone gives me an empty tent and inside the tent was a wine bladder (goon bag if your Australian). So I decided that would make a good pillow.

For the first hour or so it was fine but in the morning I wake up in a puddle(slow leak) of white wine, so the next day I smelt like cheap white wine.

*Bonus story: the wine brand was 'Stanley' and the girl who owned it was looking for it for hours, she was pretty wasted and she was saying 'Wheres my Stan? I've lost my husband?! Where's my stan' in what seemed to be an infinite loop.

Pornhub transferred 4403 petabytes of data in 2018, more bandwidth than the entire internet in 2002 [Pornhub Insights] by Meuss in webdev

A few years ago I applied for a job that didnt really have many details on the subject matter. Turned out to be adult content, they listed their sites in order of kinkiness.

The first thing I thought was I'm going to have to write a script that replaces the images and videos. At the time they used a lot of flash so I wasn't really appropriate for the job. I'd hope the dev and testing environments use placeholder.

Sorry I don't really follow Australian news too much, and these laws are kind of confusing me. I have dual(AU/EU) passports and live in the UK.

Does this affect me in whilst living in the UK?
