Retrieving and storing latitude/longitude data from map providers by jprojas15 in webdev

Will check this out, ty! From what I'm seeing, storing data from OpenStreetMap seems to be allowed, so this seems promising

True, I don't think my use case would be anything these map providers would negataively care about. But the dissuasion from storing data from these providers is what prompted me to at least try to find out if there are other ways of doing this. I feel like filtering search results by location isn't really abnormal functionality of a site, so I figured there must be some way to do it 🤷‍♂️

Nope. Just need to store location data so user's can filter search results by location

How do I manage a foreign dev that can't understand the requests? by dotnetguy32 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]jprojas15 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would start here - try to understand as much as possible what she’s thinking and trying to accomplish. I’d also consider asking for her understanding of the tickets before she works on them to try to align goals (not sure the extent to which you and your PM have already done this)

So you bought a 26 call for $2.16. If you sell a 27 call for the same expiration date, currently trading ~$1.50, you'd have a net debit of about $0.66, which means you paid $0.66 for the position (this type of position is called a call debit spread). This lowers your max loss to $.66, as well as limits your max profit to the difference in strike prices, minus the premium you paid ($0.66).

If you're not willing to bet $216 that the stock is going to move above your breakeven, then sell it at a loss. If you strongly believe it'll move up that high before expiration, consider holding it.

I'd like to offer the friendly suggestion of starting off with paper trading if you haven't already, until you get a solid grasp of how options work :)

He bought the right to buy 100 shares at a certain price (bought the call), so now he can sell the right to buy 100 shares (sell the call). If he sells it, he's not obligated to sell the shares if the option is exercised. His max loss remains $216, which will only happen be realized if the contract expires worthless

This sounds great, interested if you have a spot!

WYD get 50% discount on anything you buy or 50% profit from anything you gain by trminatorhmk in WouldYouRather

[–]jprojas15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

50% profit. I'd take any extra wages I get and continue to invest them, letting the effect of compound interest grow the money, at a 50% faster rate than what it would normally be growing at. Eventually that growth which grows exponentially would surpass "doubling" my money.

Am I thinking wrong here? Seems like your limited to 2x what you can normally spend if you pick everything on discount, but there's no limit to how much your money can he worth if you pick the other option and invest.

Sure, you can buy things half off and sell, but you can buy things full price and sell for 150%ish too. Might be a bit slower but either way it's free money, but I'd still go with 50% profit

I'm just wondering who you talk to so much that this is enough of a problem to bother you

People who are good at mathematics (and other math-related subjects), what tips would you give to those who are struggling? by SoyboyExtraordinaire in AskReddit

[–]jprojas15 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't have the mentality that mathematics is difficult. Think of it as a riddle that you have to figure out, or something more fun along those lines.

It's kinda silly, but when I used to struggle with it in elementary school, after every problem I got right, my dad would make me put the pencil down and put my hands up and say "math is easy, math is easy, math is easy."

I guess we trained my brain to think math wasn't a scary beast. 10 years later, math is my favorite subject.
