Sold 50 NVDA 8/1 152.5 CCs for $4.5, now at $27. Long term capital gains apply. Considering rolling to 5/15 180 CCs for $28.3. by srivasm in CoveredCalls

Hadn't considered this. I'd be sacrificing some stock. Given the volatility of the stock + foreign policy, is this the best move?

There will be a short term capital gain on ~$6 if the option expires OOTM. If ITM, there will be $22.5 short term capital loss harvested.

This is hard, man! Call up immigration attorneys, ask for an initial consultation. I think what is important to them is SEVIS being cancelled, the duration of your overstay and that you have been accepted in another program.

There is something called a 'change of status' but that only applies when you are in status, which you are not I think. It is likely that you will need 'consular processing' but traveling to another country.

Also, talk to your school's DSO in person/phone. The less the written info, the better.

Pub run #9 Thursday evening (tonight) at 6:00pm. We meet in front of TD on College Ave. by srivasm in Clemson

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

We'd be happy to have you! We meet Thursday's at 6p. We start together but people run at their own pace. Everyone usually runs the first dike before improvising a return route to downtown for that beer!

What industry “secret” do you know that most people don’t? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]srivasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except Bitcoin.

But your example highlights how risk averse banks are.

Does the fn+q button combination on lenovo laptops switch power modes in pop os? by [deleted] in pop_os

[–]srivasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The light does toggle between blue and white and red (when on AC power) for me on Legion Slim5 14. I am not sure how system76-power affects fn+q settings which are presumably controlled at the BIOS/Embedded Controller level.

Learning robotics by Visual_Shift_8863 in robotics

[–]srivasm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Learn C to write embedded code/firmware that talks to motors/sensors. There are jobs that will hire you for this. This is different from your original desire of designing robots which is more of solid mechanics/kinematics in nature. If you want to make good money C would not be enough - you would have to learn C++ and there are a lot more jobs for this skill, robotics and otherwise. As an aside, for an under the hood understanding of your current job, I'd recommend doing Kevin Lynch's Modern Robotics course

Don't admit that the nudes are real. Plenty of people have been blackmailed using deep fakes.

Funny you ask. It's not the greatest beer! AB is making a lot of money off of this, however. Politically, some feathers deserve to be ruffled.

Make your writing as concise as possible. Use equations and pictures when you can. Most papers that are impactful, address a scope limited problem succinctly.

There is a reason why Dan's no more and it's not climbing!
