Aint that the god damn truth!

@lucifargundam unless you have a specific algorithm in mind that you have written or taken from someone else and have already back tested it to be confident it is a good algorithm, then yea, its not what you should be considering.

Algorithmic trading is not well suited for a casual trader, or even necessarily a professional one. Its best suited for mathematicians, and programmers who have a good understanding of the math behind the investments or at the very least a good understanding of machine learning.

@lucifargundam it basically means you write a computer program that uses some sort of logic (it can be anything really) to decide when to buy and sell investments for you in the hope that it will make better investment decisions then a human.

As a general oncept it can be applied to anything, including crypto, but also stocks, fiat/forex, futures, anything technically

Man I should have gotten into algorithmic trading a **lot** sooner.

Stock market go brrrrrrrrr

The issue is that even an instance doesn't know all the users in the fediverse and which users an instance is aware of changes by the minute and ultimately is defined by the local users themselves.

so if you type a username without a server ending the local instance would have no way to determine if it could autodiscover the instance taht user is on or not. Just because it knows of one and only one user by that name it simply isnt enough information.

It is the same reason you need a full path when sending an email actually.

@stux hahaha I can see that :)

@Untersuchende While I wouldnt say it isn't the **only** issue I disagree with, it is by far the biggest one and the one that most strongly keeps me opposed to supporting them.

The other concerns I have kind of teeter a line and depend more on who i am considering if they happen to be on the right side of that line, and often just barely.

With that said I dont actually lean conservative. My ideals lean liberal, and by that i mean the strict definition of liberal and not the ideals modern day liberals in the US hold, or at least the way they choose to apply and interpret it. The issue is they have gotten so stuck in extremism and rhetoric they have lost the ability to make sound decisions that consider the actual nuance of a problem. As a consequence they completely fail on their stance on individual issues and the policy they ultimately enforce.

Basically I can some up liberals with "Points for intention, absolute failure on how to execute it.

@stux LOL

@stux Ahhh the only president and vice president in US history who ordered the execution of a 16 year old child, person of color, and US citizen, all without a trial... What a pair!

@stux they are super easy to make, I do it all the time when I go diving. I have a picture of one I blew on my page

I laughed way too hard at this one.

What I love about this the most is that now i means the USA is no longer the only nation ont he face of the earth to have collected and own space rocks (of which other nations only have samples on loan.

Before now this meant it was possible for the US to confiscate any moonrocks own by private owners as they knew for a fact they must have been stolen from the USA who has never sold off any of their rocks

So once china has some rocks too and the source of such rocks in the free market become harder to track to the nation of origin it would effectively make it psudo-legal to buy and sell moon rocks again since it would not longer be easy to make a case against it.

Yea, what gets me is, trump was an idiot, if they had played it straight and called him out for hsi legit mistakes and not played the "omg the sky is falling" game I would have been right there with them rooting for trump to fail.

In my eye trump was more than mediocre enough that there was no need to even play those sorts of games to win anyway. Which causes me to loose far more respect than I might have whenc ompared to the usual mud slingingin the past for some reason...

Its kinda like i can respect someone who cheats against a casino, the odds were against you and the casino has all the advantage... but if you cheat at a game of poker with 5 year old you just kinda look pathetic :)

100% when it comes to spearheading the propaganda it was the media doing the leg work.. the problem is the politicians rolled with it and just took the boom.

@Demosthenes

@Demosthenes

To some extent he has.. he certainly has been negative on the left... but I think thats naive to the fact that trump is largely calling out the left for things they are actually doing (such as the widespread violence) obvious sometimes it was exagerations too and idiocy as only Trump knows hot to do... But it was no where near the scale of what was going on int he other direction where trump was painted as a literal nazi for four years.

To me your talking about something the left was doing to the right at 200% and the right was doing to the left at 30%, they arent really comparable at the moment. They definately over exagerated trump as an evil monster far far more than trump was even capable of doing the same in return.

I voted for obama, never once voted for a republican for president.. I know full well just how shitty the republicans are. But the left have behaved ona s cale i have never seen since. Since the Obama administration (whom i voted for) i became ashamed to say I supported Obama or the democrats in the past, their behavior has disgusted me int he extreme these last four years while the right im not happy with they were simply mildly unpleasant at worst.

@finity

@finity

depends on who we are talking about as advocates, and i might agree.

If we talk about the politicians then i mostly agree politicians on neither side outwardly call for violence. They do however spew massive fear-based propaganda which both sides eat up and has the indirect result (and likely somewhat intention) of inciting violence. In this regard the left has been at full tilt for 4 years while the right has been relatively less active in that sense.

It is the masses taht are prone to violence and even calling for it, and as a result of that propaganda, not the leaders.
