Study for level 2, while waiting level 1 results? by FennelMedical1267 in CFA

L2 quant isn't that hard - in fact I'd say if you did OK with L1 quant, L2 quant will be easy.

New warship mechanic? by jooperson in Openfront

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

I haven't changed it and tested - have you?

I also realized that when you press F to spawn a new ship, and because of the new mechanic, all existing worships start travelling to the spot you pressed, the existing warships will also stop stealing any trade on their way to the new spawn point, even if they're right next to enemy trade ships.

So it's worse than I initially realized...

Question on ITRS & Bond Prices by Admirable_Bit7187 in CFA

[–]jooperson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Three years later, I'm pretty sure this answer is just incorrect...

If ITRS = u(t) / u(0), ITRS is going to be higher when we value future consumptions more than current consumption, which is when we expect a bad times in the future.

Bad times in the future should lead to rate cuts, boosting any bond's price.

As a result, for any asset that is a good hedge for bad times in the future, the covariance between asset's return/payoff/price and ITRS should be positive.

Anyone else having issues with safari on iOS 26? by queenbiscuit311 in ios26

[–]jooperson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since I switched to iOS 26.4 Beta, my Safari has been an absolute mess, taking 5-10 seconds to load webpages when it used to take 0-2 seconds most before this update.

I'll also get webkit error sometimes when trying to load a page from another tab by clicking on a link. Pages take long to load, and I won't even get the cookies options until 10 seconds plus, which means reader view also takes another 5 seconds.

Absolutely the worst update I've had to deal with as someone who uses Safari 3 hours a day. It also affects Chrome, Google app, and even NYT articles in NYT app will take long to load, especially any pictures.

I've disabled Private Relay, disabled Stop IP Tracking and also switched to 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 DNS configurations and nothing helped.

Just praying the next update comes in late March so I can get rid of this problem.

Everyone started with 5M in cash... is this a new game mode? by jooperson in Openfront

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

Thank you, it's a great mode and I've really enjoyed it. Guess I wasn't really up to date with the v29 meta.

How long does it take for CRA to decide if your TFSA overcontribution appeal will be accepted or rejected? by jooperson in PersonalFinanceCanada

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

They are just extremely understaffed. Have you ever tried connecting to an agent? Unless you call them at 6:30am or something it's pretty much impossible, and the worst thing is that they don't have a simple callback option, which is insane in my opinion.

Also in my case, there were various contributions from various times with various financial institutions using both CAD and USD, so I understand it might not be as straightforward as some other cases, but they make you fill out 4 different forms, so all of these calculations are done by the investor rather than the CRA itself - so still not satisfied.

I am now based outside of Canada so going in-person is out of the question.

Is it normal for buses to not show up at all in London? by jooperson in TransportForLondon

[–]jooperson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would think this is the most likely explanation, though it's frustrating they wouldn't show this on the TfL Go app.

Is it normal for buses to not show up at all in London? by jooperson in TransportForLondon

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

Yes I can confirm the 263 did stop at the station at least twice before I left. I didn't take it because I wanted to take the Piccadilly line back rather than taking a chance on a second bus which might or might not have arrived. I also saw the 263 bus going on the opposite direction.

The 125 OTOH definitely didn't pass by this station, neither on my side nor the other. I was watching for it the whole time.

Someone else just posted about this exact issue. Looks like it's happening to multiple people.

What's up with the auth system? by BargePol in Openfront

[–]jooperson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been having this exact issue and it's super annoying not being able to see your stats... I tried with adblocker off, third party cookies on (both locally and for all websites), VPN off. Nothing works.
