@aincomeinvestor Oil is a commodity and trades as such. Has nothing to do with our usage or lack thereof of the oil transiting that strait.

If this was true, US gas prices wouldn’t be going parabolic right now.

Public is right.
You shouldn’t be investing and gambling on the same platform.
Change my mind.

Sound familiar?

@WheelieInvestor What's so great today about public? Genuinely asking, I don't know.
I used them back in 2021 and was not impressed with the data available for trading. Seems like the focus was heavy on social media feeds.

I’m debating transferring all of my assets off of $HOOD and going to a broker with more features and capabilities
Should I do it?

@ElijahColeman21 Barbell is the king of fake posts man. It blows my mind how his account has any traction

@bearlyai Surprised it's only 78% tbh. I don't understand the use case of AI image generation in business. I've tried to get a few models to create fairly basic pictures and there's always something obviously wrong with it.

I got a quote to build my 3K sq ft house in NC. 4bd/3 bath. 3 car garage. Tile in bathrooms. Wet room in the master bath with a soaker tub & heated floor. Tile shower in the second bathroom. Quartz counters. LVP flooring throughout. Solid doors. Custom cabinets. One fireplace with a mantle.
I own the land.
How much was the quote?

@etf__investmnts We'll just have to agree to disagree I suppose 😂

US coffee prices are surging at a record pace: The average price of ground roast coffee is up to a record $9.46 per pound. In February, coffee prices jumped +30.5% YoY, and have surged +127% since January 2020. Over the same period, ground beef prices have risen +73% to $6.74 per pound, near an all-time high. Furthermore, steak prices have soared +66% to a record $12.74 per pound. Overall, the "food at home" category price level is up +31% while "food away from home" is up +36% since January 2020. Food inflation remains a major issue.

Just grabbed lunch at an airport McDonalds that had the kiosks and people at registers. The registers are so much faster. Name a meal, pick a size, pick your drink pay. 30 seconds.
Kiosk: login or guest? Ad for hot honey wrap. Pick a meal. Choose your toppings to omit, pick your size, scroll through drinks, ad for dessert, pay. Only watched 3 people do it, but ~60 seconds for the fastest. Then it was funny because the thing was out of paper so it sent the guy to the register for the ticket number 😂

This even goes for this little IPad kiosks. People rather wait than use them. Human touch?

Long line at the airport Starbucks this morning. After using the app and getting my coffee in less than three minutes, I approached someone in line, and told them the app would save them lots of time. She turned, smiled, and said emphatically: “Ya, but I HATE apps!”

App Store review is one of the first columns of the software ecosystem to just completely buckle under the weight of AI.
It almost makes building apps not worth it until Apple gets its stuff in order.
Nikita Bier@nikitabier
iOS developers: How long is App Review taking for everyone these days? It is now taking longer to get our app approved than it is to build the actual features.

@PunkyCovfefe Wild! I don't know if it's crazier that there's a 61°F difference tomorrow morning to tomorrow afternoon 🤯

There’s a 106° F difference between today and Saturday. 🥶🥵

Using AI to create and write your sob story is pathetic.
This is either a partially true story that you spent more time punching into AI or fabricated.

@ElijahColeman21 Depends what I 'had to lose'. If not much, "Thanks for the heads up. The value I'll bring to your company is greater than my proposed salary. In addition to experience, you'll get xyz. I'm interested to move forward at this [salary] level."

Moral/legal question: A gambling company making a big claim about a company, without any source, then immediately linking the betting market below. Is this legal?
If so, this is gambling manipulation, right?

I'll argue her side because I'm similar. I am not a regular at Starbucks, don't really like it. But in an airport with few options, I'll probably buy it. Here's the mental calculus: I can download yet another app I don't want, sign up for spam emails I don't want, inevitably enter all my personal info through a few screens, be prompted to set store preference probably, dig out my card and enter its details, figure out a new screen flow for ordering (probably easy, but unfamiliar) and and punch in my order, stand oddly to the side thinking I did it right but that feeling that it's new to me and maybe I didn't lingers. Am I wasting the time I could've made progress in line? Probably not, but I'll wonder. Versus, I stand in line for 20 min, say my order, tap a card and go. It sucks too but I can bail at anytime if it's taking longer and I'm not forfeiting my email to spam from a silly coffee company. That's why I'm choosing waiting in line.

Serious question:
Exactly how large is the “hate apps” population?

@MoneyJrod Or a trip to Hawaii. Or to Europe. Seems like that's a lot of travel goals out there and man just getting there is so expensive
