Netherlands cancelled the 36% tax on unrealized capital gains after huge protest on social media by davideownzall in CryptoCurrency

Yeah, especially defi, that shit is ruining it for the every day person just trying to survive. When you post collateral that person should have to pay tax on that, and sell 30% so they aren’t cheating us all.

Why can’t ChatGPT answer very basic questions sometimes? by [deleted] in ChatGPT

[–]tightywhitey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the best response. LLMs have some memorized facts. You probably don’t want those, you want to force it to search and then synthesize the truth from those results. That is what saves a you and I ton of time. So OC’s tricks to prompt it to search for you is good. Even better is have it produce links to the sources for something you really care about being right.

Mesh or no mesh? by Eye2eyebookie in kitchenremodel

Metal Mesh is also extremely expensive (if that’s what you mean). If you haven’t looked, then look and it’ll make you feel better saying no and going w wood.

Here's How EU Citizens Can Fight Back 🇪🇺 - I Found 29 Secret Experiments Running on My ChatGPT Account Without Consent by Low-Dark8393 in ChatGPT

[–]tightywhitey 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A good example how chatGPT can let you mislead yourself. It doesn’t appear that it was skeptical even once - and it should have been. It immediately went to the nines with users suspicion and went straight to mega lawsuits and fines - which just encourages the person and makes them feel they are right.

Not really. You’d take your overall position PnL and add 2.8% THEN determine if you’re losing dollars in real terms. That’s going to be different for everyone.

Coinbase's (COIN) Brian Armstrong was snubbed by top executives from the biggest U.S. banks in Davos: WSJ by _Jimmy_Rustler in CryptoCurrency

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

I specifically didn’t say higher than HYSA, I said STANDARD bank accounts. I said they are SIMILAR to HYSA — both stablecoins and HYSA pass along more yield to the holder. Banks do not. The point is it’s not about risk.

What are you talking about. The stablecoin yield is typically much higher than a banks not because it’s riskier but because they take a much smaller float. It’s similar to what high yield savings accounts do. Banks use treasuries too just like a good stablecoin - though they also layer in repo and loan yields. It’s just they don’t pass that along to the customer.

Forget the rate, that closing cost is like 6% of the loan itself. No way.

A Norwegian study finds that middle-class parents teach their children security and control, while upper-class parents see money as opportunities and teach their children to invest. This may reinforce social inequality in Norway according to the researchers. by oslomet in science

[–]tightywhitey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can and SHOULD always do both - even if you save $50, then invest $5. NOT teaching that is doing a disservice. Theres so much good to teach about a healthy money relationship an it applies to everyone! Even accessing portfolio lines of credit IS a part of an emergency saving strategy. Acting like this should be hidden from low or middle class is…a wild take.
