False equivalence. You're comparing liquid assets with an illiquid one here.

My networth increased by $600k in the past year, but my actual income after taxes was a quarter of that. I haven't sold and collected gains, but it still feels like I "made" that m…

"A few months" is an incredibly long time when the gap is widening on a daily basis.

It comes with test suites, so that gives you a base to start from. You can at the very least do trial-and-error and come up with some heuristics on the fly. You're at a huge disadv…

I'm interested in knowing more details about this if you happen to have a post written up somewhere!

I don't mean this to be a callout, but what do you mean you led teams as an L4? Even if you were unofficially leading them, you get caught in the politics trap of not being able to…

Why can't everything you just described be done by someone who doesn't have the CEO legal title? The CTO can be the CEO in title, but fulfill the duties of both, with consultation …

>Consider this: You aim to buy all 100 units, and then you can charge whatever rent you like, right? What happens is sellers discover you are doing this, and then raise their askin…

Not true. Do a google search for "rent-fixing algorithms". If you own enough homes in a rental market, you can determine the market rate. An empty house has value simply by depleti…

I'm going to pick an arbitrary number here that's loosely based on top 100 tech companies by market cap. If you are working for a company that employs at least 1000 full-time engin…

Do you know a specific place in either Anaheim or East SJ that has it?

El Salvador hasn't issued fiat since 2001. Any other presumptions as to why its a fair demand?

No, I went under significantly multiple times, including 80%+ losses that eventually reversed on some. Though these dips wouldn't have been as drastic if I had not stopped DCA purc…

I've done it repeatedly over the past ten years while DCA'ing. I basically made my own custom funds with 5-10 stocks, set daily purchases for a specific amount, and didn't think ab…

Are you saying the shareholders should be held responsible then? Isn't taking responsibility the reason that the CEO is being paid by them?

Your participation in the multiple threads about this tonight is extremely suspicious if you're not someone who has a vested interest in preserving the integrity of Netflix's brand…

Look up "MongoDB is web scale"

There's a recent (2022) game called Ixion with an exploding moon premise. I initially saw it promo'd during a Steam sale, didn't buy it based on some very critical reviews regardin…

>This one's a silly conspiracy theory, most executives don't have heavy investments in commercial real estate, at least not directly... residential has been so much more profitable…

It can be 30+ minutes in traffic. I did the Emeryville SF commute once when offices opened back up, then decided I needed to move back into the city.

Ok, so which comparatively-paying job is a better choice for her then?

I don't see how this invalidates my original point, can you expand on your argument?

It's more level than literally everything else that pays comparatively. At least the single mom in Philly won't have the fact that she didn't go to Stanford completely invalidate h…

>This is basically the opioid epidemic being repeated with amphetamine. No it isn't, it's a repeat of the previous American amphetamine epidemic, which has somehow been successfull…

Something I want HN's thoughts on: Does a 7% pay gap matter more or less between low incomes and high incomes? I'm looking at the bar chart with median annual earnings and a earnin…
