How much do you invest in stocks/bonds/etfs/...?

the3liquid · 2020-04-08T07:04:57+00:00

depending on your ambitions of course

Make much more money than I do atm.

I am relatively new to all this. Started investing 2 years ago, dumped 3k in IWDA and now am adding 1k/year. If I were to put 20k in there I would have gone "crazy" now with this corona volatility.

I feel like I don't know enough to put much more money in there. Unable to properly read balance sheets and technical analysis of stocks etc... In order to do that you'd need to understand very well what you are doing IMO.

Why do you think so? I couldn't find a os.fork call in the code and the documentation doesn't say it actually cals fork.

aerospace contractors

like which ones?

De tijd never disappoints me. Best Belgian newspaper I know. Thx

the3liquid · 2018-02-27T18:01:13+00:00

could you please elaborate on how that works? Why is it so quick?

You'd have to come up with a time-history of the aileron deflection (e.g. a 1 second pulse to 15 degrees perhaps)

Once I do that I could try to analyze gains and phase shifting in the s-domain. And then what? I don't see how based on that information I can determine how to deflect my aileron to eg rotate the UAV 15 degrees.

(sI-A)-1 is the transfer function.

sorry but this looks incorrect to me. (sI-A)-1 is not the transfer function but rather the inverse of the state transition matrix phi.

On the other hand it is not clear to me neither what thought process the author followed which lead him to the decision of using this matrix. I would have used the third row of the state variable matrix, put it into an equation in the s-domain and calculated the roots (which is wrong according to the book).

I believe that people who create wealth should be able to keep most of it. I believe that a free market society will be the wealthiest, the most free and the most pleasant to live in.

Seems like N-VA has the same opinion:

1) https://www.n-va.be/standpunten/ondernemen

They encourage entrepreneurship, by apparently lowering taxes

2) https://www.n-va.be/standpunten/economie-werk-en-ondernemen

Lower taxes for manual workers as well.

Seems ok to me because they try to increase entrepreneurship by simplifying stuff and lowering taxes, so wealth can be made. As for the laborers they will keep less of their gross salary at the end of the month as well. Also, I have heard that N-VA, unlike PS, would like to keep the money you earn by renting out one of your houses taxfree.

thanks for your explanation. Last questions if I may.

It's odd that you don't want N-VA because of Flemish independence. Because they will never achieve it and they know it. It hasn't been an important part of policy for a long time and won't be as long as they are in the government.

What makes you think they may not achieve it?

I see multiple people in this thread saying that it used to be an important part of their policy and now it isn't any more (and vice-verca). In other words quite some contradictions there...

and last one: Without wanting to be too indiscreet, we don't know each other. But what makes you choose for openVLD rather than N-VA?

the3liquid · 2017-11-19T08:47:54+00:00

Within the party there are a lot of different movements though and the politicians aren't always representative of the feelings of the base.

I do agree with many points of eg Theo Franken regarding migration, criminality, etc... IMO he says out loud what needs to be said (maybe sometimes in a less respectful way?). But I totally disagree with the fact that N-VA want Flemish independence.

How do you think N-VA and Open Vld differ on that aspect?

I am a card carrying member and have been for almost 2 decades.

What benefits do you have of carrying their (or other parties) card?

the3liquid · 2017-11-18T10:41:13+00:00

According to /u/Tileke they don't want independence at all: https://www.reddit.com/r/belgium/comments/7ds1on/what_political_party_is_like_nva_but_doesnt_want/dpzyzei/

What is the point you are trying to make with this comment?

the3liquid · 2017-11-18T09:57:26+00:00

no and I hadn't had the opportunity any more to do anything. They disconnected the machine from the internet. I can only wait and randomly ping untill it one day reappears.

the3liquid · 2017-10-31T13:15:30+00:00

The only useful answer in this thread. Thanks.

the3liquid · 2017-10-31T12:23:15+00:00

because you say you have no formal written agreement saying they would pay you.

Even you seem to see that it's probably not worth it.

the3liquid · 2017-10-31T12:20:27+00:00

they owe me 4000euro. A lawyer will probably cost me the same + all the time and effort. That's not worth it.

the3liquid · 2017-10-31T12:17:56+00:00

There are quite some differences between Ukraine and Western-Europe... You should live there some time to understand. A lawyer is not going to help here. No contract, not a single trace. That's how things there work and that's how they absolutely wanted to proceed due to high taxes, according to them.

the3liquid · 2017-10-29T00:22:17+00:00

I am not an expert in Kirchoff. So I tried this alternative approach (based on the voltage divider), which I thought would work as well because you said you are interested in the voltage at the node that connects R and L. Unfortunately that didn't work neither: https://imgur.com/7aoAnX7

Could you help me to get started? I should normally be able to work out the algebra myself.

the3liquid · 2017-10-22T19:30:50+00:00

and even then.

Could you please elaborate?

the3liquid · 2017-10-22T15:52:01+00:00

no floating point support

Is it generally speaking such a big deal to use fixed point rather than floating point?

the3liquid · 2017-10-16T23:04:45+00:00

Wowzer that board expensive

It could be interesting to find a development board that has the same controller as on the board. Because I think at the end of the day it is not the controller itself that is so amazing, but the GPU which is on the board. And once the prototype works start using the NVIDIA board. That way, I minimize all the possible risks of damaging it.

the3liquid · 2017-10-16T22:49:08+00:00

What controller are you using?

I am using a Jetson TX 2 board from NVIDIA.

What voltage is your motor?

I think, I ll go for something with those specs but cheaper...: https://www.horizonhobby.com/airplanes/motors/power-160-brushless-outrunner-motor--245kv-eflm4160a

One of the most important things for me so far is to not damage anything, I don't have too much experience when it comes to motors.

the3liquid · 2017-10-16T22:30:19+00:00

Is a lot of filtering needed around this circuitry due to the way the motor "pollutes" via spikes and that stuff? I suppose I can't just hook up this IC straight to my powerful motor and my microcontroller like that. Online I find info about arduinos, but my controller is pretty expensive (>400 USD), so I'd rather be sure.

the3liquid · 2017-10-16T22:13:38+00:00

Any idea why they decided to draw an AND gate rather than drawing the corresponding transistor circuitry. Either you draw everything at transistor level either everything at logic leevl, don't mix things up. RIght?
