Chase The Sun Trading Podcast

Oh man... Big Mike has been around a lot longer than I thought.

@Festivus96 @Mericamemed But who is "they"? Asking for science.... And maybe for a friend...

@Mericamemed They have laser rifles too:

what could I use these for? For educational purposes, of course.

Bro is every freedom-loving homeowner's spirit animal.

@BillboardChris What fucking bullshit nonsense did I just waste a minute listening to. "I'm a dude now" Proceeds to build Big Ben rather than just tell the fucking time.

This is the most female conversation ever.

Trading strategies have evolved significantly, especially since the meme stock era. Be wary of influencers promoting fake success; understand the fundamentals before diving in. #Trading #Investing

Two days ago the US banned Claude Fable 5. Yesterday China dropped GLM 5.2. Today GLM 5.2 is #1 on @bridgebench BS at 100.0, and #1 on Reasoning at 42.8, beating Fable 5. At 1/10th the cost and 300 tokens per second. You cannot export control your way out of an open source race. The ban didn't slow China down. Unban Fable 5.

Next up on Chase The Sun we'll talk bout CSPs, how and when they can be deployed, the risks, and how they help. We will also engage in rampant, wild speculation about the incapacitated Fable 5, the performance of $SPCX on Friday, and what we think might be in store for tech.

Don't tie up all your capital for shares, you can pick up 100 shares equivalent of leverage for a fraction of the price with a Long Call through options.

@ShadowMario83M @Mericamemed Plot twist, I know how to do it but don't live there. There's no "by his good graces". He was gouging me because he knew I didn't live there.

@storshun @Mericamemed Just learn to do it yourself. He's charging you not for his time or equipment, but for the time and effort your lazy ass is saving by not learning and doing it yourself like a real man.

Some customers are worth sending to your competitors

I know there are other associated costs the contractor has, but I'm gonna turn it back around on you. If the contractor has all those other expenses, "that's their problem. Cost of doing business". It's not my responsibility for them to [fill in whatever expense you want here]. So we can be unreasonable or we can acknowledge there need to be better solutions. I had an A/C repair quote for $1600 to replace a TXV. Purge the system, replace, solder, purge, refill with my own refrigerant. I was told it was a 4 hour job. So you're telling me I need to pay $350/hr for labor, plus the part and the trivial amount of map gas and solder, gasoline, etc for that job? No. Nevermind the Certified HVAC tech misdiagnosed the issue.

@storshun @Mericamemed Not to mention the time to schedule the job, the time to answer the call, the time to pick up/order the parts. If you want to avoid all of that obviously you have to do it yourself. If you are 200 miles away thats your problem. Cost of doing business

Options Traders are usually creatures of the environment they were formed from. That usually spells disaster long-term.

@AndreSo14746035 @Mericamemed ugh, tell me about it.

@storshun @Mericamemed Plot twist: that capacitor costs only $2.70

When you pay highly for a highly skilled individual to do a job quickly, it's in response to a time premium. You gain that person's time to achieve more. When you pay a contract technician to do a job quickly, the time premium has very little value as the customer. You're not doing me any favors by doing a simple job in 15 minutes, regardless of how skilled you are. It only benefits the contractor. And charging me 3-5 hours wage to do a 15 minute job, regardless of your skill, is a rip-off.

@storshun @Mericamemed You aren't paying for just the 15 minutes it takes to change it. Someone being good and fast at their job doesn't mean the price should be cheaper

@TK3333768867 @Mericamemed Yes, simple when 200 miles away. So simple. Brilliant. You're a genius. I'm so glad you thought of that. Love it. Keep being part of the problem.

@storshun @Mericamemed do it yourself. simple

@TheLZ72356514 @Mericamemed It's a mixed bag. You're partially right, that guy is individually responsible for his reputation. But I've also had sole proprietors do an absolute shite job to band-aid the problem, or get a call for a better paying job mid-way through and just leave.

@storshun @Mericamemed The problem is you aren’t calling your local guy who isn’t a pos. The guy who doesn’t have huge signs and ads on tv. You gotta talk to some folks who didn’t call the big name company to get a name. Thats the guy who won’t fuck you.

Now that's funny
