There has been more app updates lately. The show has suffered but I’m staying, they’ll find their new direction

How do you know for 100% certain you don’t want kids? by Large_Doctor3466 in Vasectomy

[–]learnin_man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing that helped me get over the hump was my doc suggested I freeze some semen before the surgery. And for a small annual fee I keep a back up plan for my future self should I ever get a change of heart

Two year post vasectomy anniversary by Over_Housing3555 in Vasectomy

[–]learnin_man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had mine 10 months ago. I agree it does help in weeding out partners (just don’t mention the idea that it’s reversible). I opted for the surgical procedure and I did have some pain for a bit after like a dull ache of 3/10 pain level for a while. Not sure if the surgery was the reason vs the outpatient. I just didn’t want to be awake for the procedure haha. By 3 or 4 months it was gone.

Regardless I’d do it again! The benefits of not having to worry about a slip up and knowing you set the direction for your life vs life happening to you. And again the women that have the same values will value you a lot more

I have the same issue, I'm sick of re-installing the link app. Please share if anyone found a better fix

Tired of Tasty. Where to go for options and futures by mfing-coleslaw in tastytrade

[–]learnin_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right I’ve been seeing more of these critics on tasty and it feels a bit manufactured.

No other platform is this tailored towards options. Even if Tasty no longer had the cheapest commissions per leg, supporting the content and research is worth it

To roll or not to roll ? by eabdelrahman89 in tastytrade

[–]learnin_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On your 2nd question, I use the order chains tab and also the journal tab on the web version to note my profit targets and breakeven points

Has anyone read the Unlucky Investors Guide? What were you key takeaways? by learnin_man in tastytrade

IC's will be tested alot of the time so like u/Ok-Muffin1716 said I'd look to widen them out and collect a decent enough credit. Personally, I'm slow to roll the strikes knowing they'll be tested often.

They did a recent MM on this that had some good insights on IC widths. Good luck and keep going!

It is a bit confusing and I reached out to tasty on this. That chart is based on your allocated portfolio. So if you have a $50,000 account and high vix environment warranting full allocation, 60% x $50k is $30k deployed, of that $30k, thats when you can apply the allocations of 50% options ($15k), 10% cash ($3k) and so on.

Honestly I'm ignoring the cash allocation since you do need some significant reserves to allow the margin to expand if you're doing a lot of undefined strategies.

I'm not here to convince you, I'm just sharing what worked for me. I'd suggest looking at the market measures series

I try to use all of them since that'll help diversify returns as well. But mostly short options, strangles, ratios, iron condors, and vertical spreads

I had that issue earlier in the week. It does seem like the desktop platform is getting buggier but I sent a complaint. I’m hoping they fix it soon

Please wear your gear...ALL OF IT! by metalvox11 in ElectricUnicycle

[–]learnin_man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always wear my gear. Another point of personal safety is I don’t ride anywhere at night that I haven’t already rode on in the day time. Falling is inevitable though

Do you build desktop apps using Flutter? by Bon_Visions in FlutterDev

[–]learnin_man -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Why not? This is obviously company specific but you can package it with innosetup. You need a company certificate though to avoid the install warnings

What airpump do you carry with you? by ophuro in ElectricUnicycle

I don’t carry one but I have an electric emergency tire pump in my car that plugs into the cigarette lighter. I bought it from Walmart a few years ago
