- Comment on What is the catalyst that actually causes (financial) bubbles to burst? 3 months ago:
I agree, I’m sure those kind of manipulations happen all the time. Some are intentionally inflating the price and sometimes investors/fund managers have just drank the Kool-aid and are investing in ways that don’t make sense given the fundamentals. So yeah, stock prices can become completely unmoored from fundamentals because these days the money is in buying and selling, not dividends. In fact, I’d guess that stock prices are unmoored from fundamentals more often than not — when they’re high they’re too high and when they’re low they’re too low due to investor sentiment. But I remain somewhat confident that over the very long term (meaning decades) stock prices have some correlation to fundamentals, so they can’t remain artificially inflated forever. Sooner or later someone will make a killing popping the bubble.
- Comment on What is the catalyst that actually causes (financial) bubbles to burst? 3 months ago:
Stock prices are set by what people think stocks are worth. Buying a stock is a bet that it will become more valuable in the future (and/or pay dividends). Even with the rise of algorithmic trading, those algorithms are betting the stocks are will rise in value. In theory the cost should be related to the fundamentals of the stock like the company’s revenue, but in practice they are also set by investor’s opinions about the stock’s future price.
So what causes stocks to go down is people thinking that stocks will go down, and selling before they lose any more money.
In the case of the AI stock bubble, it’s hard to know what will cause investors to say “this stock is likely to drop on value, or at least not grow as quickly as other investments I could make.” The fact that most AI companies are burning cash and not getting much revenue out of it hasn’t dampened the excitement yet, so I guess investors still believe there’s a way forward that will result in more revenue. Or at least they believe the hype cycle isn’t coming to an end so they’re holding on while the prices go up and hope to sell before their holdings lose too much value. It won’t pop until something deflates the expectations of enough investors to start a sell-off. What’s that going to be? Who knows. It might just be a herd mentality thing where a few people begin to sell and more people follow suit.

In fairness, he’s always looked like a national spokesperson for gas station boner pills. He just looks like it even more now.
- Comment on my back hurts so bad 5 months ago:
I got lucky: my back pain was from tight hamstrings and sitting in a desk chair for too long, then doing heavy deadlifts. I WFH and get out of my chair as much as possible and I’m religious about stretching my hamstrings, and the back pain is gone even when I deadlift.
So everyone with back pain should figure out why — sometimes it’s preventable. (Other times not so much ☹️)

- Comment on How can I start getting familiar with the plants, trees and animals around where I live? 7 months ago:
I like the iNaturalist app: www.inaturalist.org. When I see something I’m interested in whether plant or animal, I upload a picture and it tells me what it thinks it is. And they’re trying to collect good data about flora and fauna so there are volunteers who review submissions and agree or correct it, so it’s not just an algorithm doing the work. Obviously when you upload it it’s a computer making a guess but people usually review the uploads later, and you can get emails with the results of those reviews.
Someone else mentioned Merlin for birds, which is cool because it can do image ID or bird call ID.

- Comment on How do you gently tell someone you only want to keep seeing them if it's on a dating level? 8 months ago:
I disagree with the person you’re replying to - romantic partners and friends have a lot in common but they are not the same thing. And just because you were romantically interested in someone doesn’t mean you owe them friendship. These things are difficult and if you don’t want to keep being a friend for whatever reason that’s fine.

- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
When I got banned I tried to create a new account several times and used up several clever usernames which were immediately banned. So I gave up on having a Reddit account. Several months later I decided to try again, this time with a username that was just a random string of digits and using a brand-new browser. I think I was on a cellular connection instead of my home internet when I created the new account. For whatever reason it worked that time. Maybe the fingerprinting isn’t as effective if you haven’t logged into Reddit for several months?
- Comment on what exercises work for you to avoid back pain? 1 year ago:
It depends on the cause of your back pain so I agree with the people who said maybe see a doctor. Some people have weak back muscles so strengthening exercises help. My back pain was caused by tight hamstrings and overuse of my back, so I fixed it with a lot of hamstring stretches and getting out of my office chair as much as possible. My brother in law has a bulging disc so neither of those things would help him.
Probably the biggest help for me was WFH so I could get out of my office chair - I can lie down, walk around, or sit in different chairs when I’m taking a break, and I take a lot of breaks. I stretch my hamstrings after most workouts so I’m warmed up. I bend over to touch my toes with my feet together for 90 seconds, starting gently, breathing as I relax, and slowly increasing the stretch a little as my muscles loosen up. Then I take a 30 second break, then I move my feet to somewhere width apart and do another 90 second slow hamstring stretch. Another 30-second break, then I put my feet about halfway to a split and do a other 90 seconds touching the ground. Then a break then as wide as I can go and bend over to touch the ground. I think the slow process really helps me relax.

I assume this was a grift — they “found” some bodies and declared them Arthur and Guinevere, and suddenly the site became a pilgrimage destination and lots of money started flowing in from the pilgrims.
