I think you're referring to covered calls, but you can sell naked calls as well, meaning without owning the underlying.

I'm honestly surprised, almost disappointed, that Claude couldn't reduce this 4% to way less.

Regarding the multi-tasking induced by this new way of working (agentic coding), I've moved from quick and short iterations to a longer ideally one-shot prompt, optimizing for less…

So a 2h ride? Was it easy to find a driver?

Both of these are wrong. Non-EU means it's harder to get a permit, especially without working experience, but it's not impossible either. Housing is difficult in cities like Zurich…

I would try to learn some new tech. Definitely not something you can do in a vacuum with no goal for months in a corporate setting, but e.g. learning more about a programming langu…

Not sure what you mean by spec and design, but around me, that's always been paid more than simply coding. If you have a clean technical spec that's detailed enough, the code natur…

On which operating system? That wouldn't surprise me on Android, a bit more on other platforms (and worth filing an issue).

Same here, music is too important for me to give up this kind of control. I probably miss out on the discovery system of streaming services, but there are enough other sources (e.g…

I sure envy you if this qualifies as "catastrophic", because hard drive can and do fail.

If "things go catastrophic" your hard drive is not usable at all anymore. At the very least some files can't be recovered at all. So you need backups in any case. Once you have bac…

I was looking for a good markdown / file editor on Android available the Play Store on a device where I can't install F-Droid / arbitrary apks, as I had been using https://github.c…

But it's the kind of things you'd expect Windows to take care of automatically, or in the worst case, to prompt the users to install on first boot, especially if Linux (with overal…

> the bulk of handsets sold are still iPhones According to https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/mobile/united-kin... it's closer to 50/50.

Nobody cares about costs until they pay them themselves. Regarding code quality and tech debt, it's sensible not to care if it doesn't lead to anything observable. Do you really ca…

> I've yet to be saved by an airbag or seatbelt. Is that justification to stop using them? By now, getting a car without airbags would probably be more costly if possible, and the …

I don't follow why you'd run uncommitted non-reviewed code outside of the sandbox (by sandbox I'm meaning something as secure as a VM) you use. My mental model is more that you no …

Is there already some more established setup to do "secure" development with agents, as in, realistically no chance it would compromise the host machine? E.g. if I have a VM to whi…

I'd understand not reading the code of the system under test, but you don't even read the tests? I'd do that if my architecture and design were very precise, but at this point I'd …

As a passenger, I really notice the difference, and I wish more drivers (including professionals) would learn as you did. It probably saves energy as well, especially when driving …
