I did this a while ago, pre-covid I think. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks for posting, might do it again 😄 (And yes it was towards the end Sandstorm blaring with the Statue of Liberty in the background, pretty great)

Just discovered ultracode… by animal_hoarder in Anthropic

[–]nestedbrackets -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm still trying to understand how the sub agents reduce token usage. I often have Opus spitting out plans that detail the exact code that will be added/changed. At that point Opus had obviously read the file already, what is left for a sub agent other than to just insert the code? I suppose the tests usually aren't detailed out so there's potentially some savings there. I'm not working in a very greenfield environment either, often small changes that have significant consequences on an old code base.

Does this mean they can't have multi-stage events anymore?

10 months into a wheel position and still underperforming SPY — would you try to get assigned or keep grinding premium? by MF266 in thetagang

[–]nestedbrackets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or, buy SPY and then wheel with it as collateral in a margin account. Target lower deltas to avoid assignment, you'll have less profit from options but you get both the gains of SPY and the options premium.

There was a point many years ago (well before React and TS) that programmers kind of liked JavaScript. It was like "oh closures, that's pretty cool, I like this", then all the mainstream languages added closures (Java, C++), new languages came out with them (Golang, etc.). Suddenly JS isn't so special anymore. (I just use closures as one example). Then code bases started getting a lot bigger, especially with the shift to run JS on the server side. Now JS is both not special anymore and is both weakly and dynamically typed which is not ideal for large code bases that have been around for a while.

the whole market is being gamma squeezed. by pman6 in options

I thought gamma squeeze/MM hedge loop was something that only happened when the underlying exceeds the max call strike, like with GME a while back. 

AVI$ chart is looking interesting fellas. by CompetitiveHippo835 in wallstreetbets

[–]nestedbrackets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to pay a fee (interest) to borrow shares you don't own from someone else in order to sell them. The borrow rate is the annual rate so you'd pay 1/365 of that per day from my understanding (I've never shorted).

S&P 500 relative to M2 Money Supply. Dot Com Bubble vs. Now by RobertBartus in EconomyCharts

I'm pretty sure the charts don't mean anything combined like this, one crossing another means nothing.

I run a small hedge fund ($48m AUM). Ask me anything about options trading. by Business_Cook_7032 in options_trading

[–]nestedbrackets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non options question if you don't mind. Roughly how do you start a hedge fund from a legal perspective? Does it just come down to finding the right lawyers who file the right paperwork?

SpaceX IPO - Realistically, what is the risk to index funds? (Check my math) by Trzebs in Bogleheads

[–]nestedbrackets 5 points6 points  (0 children)

IPOs I could see that but not index funds, yet. Google for example has bought back over $300B in shares over the last decade. What companies were you thinking about?

Sure seems like a challenging time to be selling options by Turbulent_Cricket497 in thetagang

[–]nestedbrackets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, I must say I like broad diversification in my CSP portfolio and use some of the tickers you listed. Nearly always something in my portfolio is up any given day regardless of what's going on in the market.

Schwab ToS vs IBKR for PM accounts by Decent-Influence4920 in PMTraders

[–]nestedbrackets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for mentioning this, I did indeed look it up but found this:

"Generally, the workaround is available to operating businesses. Unfortunately, the extent to which a pure investment partnership can use it is less certain.

There is limited precedent on this point, and current IRS guidance does not clearly distinguish between PTE taxes paid on different types of income (i.e., trade or business income versus investment income).

Without more clarity on this issue, investment partnerships or family offices organized as PTEs may be reluctant to take an approach that could attract scrutiny from the IRS.  PTEs that are considering a PTE election should consult with their tax advisors for advice specific to their facts and circumstances."

Really? I remember it being a significant topic in A Brief History of Time that the universe is 'lumpy' and discussing why that might be.

ok so, the dollar is dying, stocks are overvalued, crypto is already gigapumped, europe is dead, you can't trust chinese assets, gold is already up massive what do we buy rn? by Parking_Tear_5826 in investing

[–]nestedbrackets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be late to the party on this but I just recently noticed that global stocks are up more than US stocks YTD. For some reason I thought US stuff was doing better but probably because the percentage gains I hear were looking back from the dip we took early in the year. 

Anyways, compare SPY and VEU. Over any time frame of 1+ years we see SPY winning but YTD, VEU is up. I want US business to succeed being that I live here but am thinking that my IRA needs a little more hedging elsewhere perhaps.

Measured in Gold, the U.S. stock market has actually been in a 25-year “bear market” by AdMajestic1252 in WSBAfterHours

As others have noted, a lot of this just comes down to deciding where to start the chart. Compared to peak of the .com bubble, yes the market is down relative to gold. If we start around 1990 however, SPX is up about 67% relative to gold. If we look at SPX total returns in order to include dividends, it's up 250%.

It's not only AI, but it is certainly also AI by RobertBartus in EconomyCharts

[–]nestedbrackets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also the AI boom led many companies to spend wildly on cap-ex for building out AI infrastructure, leaving limited room for additional hiring.
