I'm also just about visible from space at 30cm resolution

Their support will eventually just end the conversation and block replies if you are unsatisfied. TOS bind you to arbitration but they'll probably kick it to small claims. Overall if you end up on the wrong side of a bad support response it's a shitty experience.


I know people that trade headlines full time that also at one point had a step count that averaged less than 200 steps a day. They do make good returns though.


I would have figured algorithmic trading bots got all the wins there before a human could.


Relatively defined events yes, i.e probably wouldn't try to click through FOMC (is number better/worse than FedWatch) but take something like BTC ETF getting approval:

- you aren't sure where the announcement will come from first, i.e will it leak via journalist

- there will be plenty of false announcements

- the official SEC twitter account got hacked and posted it was approved (Phone number taken over, no 2FA enabled lolol)

- there will be volatility around fake announcements as others are running bots

- LLMs interpretation of "BTC ETF approved" vs "With BTC ETF approval" can cause you to start eating lot of transaction costs

You can still (presently...) come out on top as a bag of meat. Is it worth the hours and cortisol vs half decent tech job? going to say entirely dependent on the scorecard afterwards and if you value doing something with actual purpose.


The fastest way to see news for a binary event is the just watch the stock price of the underlying.

For something like GDP numbers, the price moves within milliseconds of the print, before your browser can even refresh and minutes before the numbers even show up on twitter.


I am going to take advantage of this arbitrage opportunity to start a newspaper :)


Humans can be much smarter than any algo trading bots. The algorithms for trading are really primitive price action stuff - not fundamental information about the business, products, customers...


Wouldn't an LLM be able to do that kind of analysis?


A LLM all by itself? No, I really don't think so. From my personal trading history - I knew to invest into AMD when it was at $5 because I tried their products and am intimately familiar with computers. LLM won't be able to do that for a long time. But - it helps me.


Only shows under the Business pricing header "Everything in Pro, plus [...] Enforce privacy mode [...]" on the pricing page for me


That's to force-on privacy mode for your whole team. Without it you can still enable privacy mode manually.


ok my bad! I misunderstood from the pricing page


bah, I meant cursor.sh/.com


Hilarious how it's terror and/or think of the children nearly every time a privacy busting product or law is being pushed through or justified.

Attacks on Real Estate Agents: Be Prepared

Last month, the attack on a real estate agent in Encino, California, was brought to light as the incident was caught on camera. While we have all heard stories regarding the increase in attacks on agents, seeing it happen live on video made it very real for many and greatly impacted the agent community. No one wants to go to work afraid, not knowing who they will encounter each day.

Above is from Forewarn's blog https://www.forewarn.com/blog/attacks-on-real-estate-agents-...


> While we have all incorrect, exaggerated, or just plain made up stories regarding the increase in attacks on agents...

There, fixed that for them.

He tweets pretty frequently about the on-going drama


I just scrolled through his tweets (Xeets?) and I must say I really like the guy. Hugely entertaining.

I hope for his sake this is all a performance art but but I doubt it.


Top tweet is him confronting an intruder then biffing on his face after tripping on a fire hydrant. I just couldn't scroll any further.


And he posts here too. Recently he mentioned his plan for eliminating crime in Pine Bluff and maybe everywhere:

ah, you've mentioned both of the things I was installing right now that I hoped might avert this
