Ramblings of a technology slave.Fintwit has been buzzing about gamestop,inflation, crashes, levels, archegos, gamma, short squeezes, amc, margin, PFOF, SI, CPI, Transition, Trump, Jay Powell, Gary 's bananas and more.
I don't think there has been a dull week in the markets since $GME woke the world.
I'm a HUGE fan of Roaring Kitty as he inspired me to start taking control of my financial future along with TheStockGuy .
That is until I lost money trying to understand markets, trading, hft, wsb, archegos all taught me valuable lessons in todays markets.
You see, I have undiagnosed ADHD.
I'm also a slave to technology and have been since before 87.
So much so I didn't even notice the .com burst working for a .com company.
I didn't notice the housing crisis while helping a business partner paint his 5k sqft house he bought for under 200k (a forclosure).
I wrote compression and data collection software for embedded systems (what you now know as IOS/Android) as my entry level job 20 years ago.
I believe covid life style was inevitable because I lived it since I was 25, over 20 years ago.
I have an unscratchable itch for practical learning.
I've read 1 book my entire life.
i've been consumed by video games ever since I was 10 (pong,tandy).
I think your family is everything.
I've built over 1000 websites.
I worked in the same NORTEL building shortly after, an incident.
time is the only real valuable asset.
I think Cannabis will be a replacement for alcohol in a few years ( NASDAQ:HEXO ).
My favorite movies are Bill and Ted's excellent adventure and the matrix.
I need a spell correction in TradingView Ideas before I loose my shit.
The first thing I wrote was a pac-man/ snake game for a high school teacher that inspired me to learn programming.
I lost a kidney to teenage drinking while studying advanced C++
I have studied and had first hand knowledge of everything crypto (dial in bulletin boards,gzip,rar,warez,pgp,p2p,napster) without ever being invested in it.
The last 6+ months I've been dissecting markets/trends in my limited spare time as copium for covid.
my 5yr son has ADHD and learned to be a doge coin tycoon in roblox in a few days, without any help/schooling, and only because he saw my interest in it.
I came across this, I guess you can call "idea", today and it was almost like a Eurika moment for me. It scratched that itch.
you see, I remember things, but not in vivid detail. experiences mostly.I heard decades ago about Moore's law.
The speculation was that by 2040 humans would be integrated into circuits. Guess who is on schedule of making that a reality.
What I'm trying to say is people should stop arguing and fighting around the word.
In the end, we're all going to be slaves of technology. Resistance is futile (but it's not the end).
With the help of technology I believe the human race will overcome our evolutionary bad cards and primitive egos.
I owe my entire life to advancing of technology.
Just think about it for a moment.
Imagine you could store your ideas, thought processes and experiences and memories in a computer for your loved ones to ask you a question in 40 years.
Using human -> technology advancements is the way of the future.
Always has been.
Happy Labor Day!
Talk to someone you care about. It helps me every time.
