    The Stock Trading and Shitposting thread.

    My minor stock shitpost for the day..... I'll just say one of the individual stock plays I hold a bit of.... had a very nice day.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    This goes back to a lesson I have seen failed over and over in both content circles, and in almost every aspect of business.... A small group of people have an idea/content/way of doing something which they are passionate about, and people like. They build that small idea/thing up into a...

    The problem is the level of intervention they need to do to keep the situation from careening into a ditch is such that it will cause a cascade of other shitstorms. We're approaching, IMHO, a "choose how you die" economic inflection point on a probably global scale.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Networking is essentially how I landed every job I have had since 2000. Once you have worked in a field, made some good networking links, and build any level of a reputation for competency you should never have to worry about resume stacking again....

    The Boys

    The comic was essentially Garth Ennis trying to out "Garth Ennis" himself. The guy also wrote the Preacher series. In both these cases I enjoyed the original comics FAR more than the TV adaptations. Yeah. The Boys was not a great or high brow situation. As mentioned it was at it's best a...

    Well frugal me is winning out. So I ended up throwing almost 1/3 of them in my vibratory tumbler today to try to clean and de-rust some of them a bit..... Guess I have a weekend project for tomorrow or Sunday now.

    OK, since this I think is the closest place to any here to have "tool talk" here we go...

    Fair enough... so a tiny moment of Caddy history.... That car that looks so horrible is Cadillac's attempt to rekindle a weird fandom that happened earlier on in the V and V-sport lines. The V and V-sport lines are basically making Cadillacs into new age muscle cars. The V did this...

    Yeah, that thing is a painful thing to look at... OTOH, I can firmly attest that the fastest I've ever gone in a car is in my CTS V-sport. And one of the key factors that I won't officially admit was a draw, but was, was that unlike it's competitors in the "luxury sedan" arena it has no...

    I'm sure that's exactly what the dealer is probably putting in those monthly letters they send me offering me an exclusive trade in upgrade offer.... Maybe they'd throw in new mats with the new car payment.... [laughs in "has no car payments"]

    I've been debating something like this for in my caddy as well. Tuxmats doesn't carry for a CTS as old as mine (2017) (only the newer CT4/CT5) though.... Apparently the drawback to my tendency to take care of cars and hold on to them is that now I can't find accessories I want. heh

    It's a Gin company he owns (Aviator) and he also owns/owned Mint mobile. He seems to invest in a company, use his endorsement/fame to pump it, then in some cases sell it off. (I think he sold Mint mobile, but still owns Aviator gin). Same can be said for a lot of actors we really like, like...

    But outside being a specifically famous actor, there's another more important bottom line....
