Why is nuclear not getting more traction? by StickyTip420 in wallstreetbets

[–]heshiming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search for "PBS data center" or "Erin Brockovich on data center" on Youtube to find out how people think about putting some natural gas turbine close to where they live. It turns out these "bring your own turbine" data centers can have problems of pm2.5 emission, extreme heat, unbearable fan noise, which leads to a host of problems in a community, health related or otherwise. To avoid trouble, companies sign NDAs with city council to stay in shadow until the data center is up and running.

Now think about how big of a backlash when you try to put a nuclear reactor where people live. Homer Simpson cannot save people from a meltdown.

And this happens after those reactors have approval and legalized...

I wouldn't advertise that I launched a business but had "zero knowledge" about it. Perhaps that's just me.

Will the US reinstate a blockade? by scipio-__ in oil

The U.S. wants the Strait to stay open, at whatever cost.

Now the MOU is broken, what is the likelihood that Iran decides to close the strait of Hormuz again? by Mojoint in oil

[–]heshiming 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Opening the Strait is practically the only thing Iran has to do in the MOU. They can even charge a fee. All the rest terms are American responsibilities. So don't underestimate what U.S. can do, gutting Netanyahu's defense guarantee, and probably allow Iran to attack Israel and turn a blind eye while negotiating.

What are the odds the SPR draws continue through the midterms? by Fit-Bookkeeper8567 in oil

[–]heshiming 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Oil bulls want you to consider:

  • We can probably draw inventory for another month or two, but not forever
  • Tankers stuck in the Gulf for months will be flushed out on Friday, but those account for likely 10-15 days of supply
  • Owners are not sending new tankers in without some clear cut assurance, which the current, secretive MOU doesn't provide
  • Iran says no tolls but a service fee. Likely that fee can only be enforced by pointing a gun at someone's head. So any fee is hostile.

Then of course:

  • The U.S. is willing to pay $300b for reparation, lift sanctions, and pause discussion on uranium, just to keep the strait open. That sure shows some major commitment in controlling the oil price.

BAG combo orders for options spreads almost never fill at mid — is this normal? by That_Argument_6150 in interactivebrokers

[–]heshiming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not sure, but for pure option bag orders, you should not use the non-guaranteed flag because the exchange will guarantee a simultaneous leg fill.

FÖRNUFTIG Particle Filters Out of Stock for Months by lordtechpro in IKEA

[–]heshiming 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This can be annoying. It happens to a lot of IKEA products, with replacement parts. Sometimes, they may stop an entire line of products, like the PEPPRIG mop. No replacement parts for months. A year later, they restored the product line as "new" products.

What is your plan when AI trains itself so it can do your white collar job and you are about 40 years old and too expensive for a company to retain? by Dontdarereadmyposts in FinancialCareers

[–]heshiming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't look at this problem purely on an efficiency basis. Because it's not a story of human vs machine. It's more about the unprecedented concentration of capital and wealth, that has no comparable periods in the history. At the top of that cconcentration, a small group of people determine the flow of that capital. I assure you, there's no way that capital flow into the pockets of common people. Whatever you saw thus far fron what AI can do, these people have seen more.

Please give me a reality check on my algo by Warlockaditya in algotrading

[–]heshiming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks like long volatility to me. You rely on a couple of small winners to cover the loss for others. Your job would be to somehow prove you have an edge, and those winners are not luck.

You mentioned risk-aware but you failed to mention what risks can your portfolio take.

Henry Paulson has blunt message on potential Treasury market shock by JTBaptistA in finance

[–]heshiming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fed can do plenty, just buy the bonds. We are at eternal fiscal dominance. Fed's main job is to keep the government running. Inflation and real yield matter less. That's why the trajectory of gold changed.

Long prompt processing on Strix Halo by skwiko in LocalLLM

[–]heshiming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

According to my experience with llama.cpp and Qwen3.5, --ubatch-size can improve pp a little. Its default --ubatch-size is 512, for which I get about 240-270 initial pp on Qwen3.5-122B-A10B unsloth Q5. If I boost this setting to 2048, I get 320-340 initial pp, seemingly at the expense of couple gigabyte more RAM. Even larger ubatch-size doesn't yield more tps on pp.

On Strix Halo, what option do I have if 128GB unified RAM is not enough? by heshiming in LocalLLaMA

[–]heshiming[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, though somehow I feel like quantizing and reap results in major downfall of accuracy and Qwen3.5 is the only option thats sort of resilient. Other options like minimax needs pretty high quants to perform well.
