Hi Hacker News!

As an options trader myself, I’ve recently become interested in using “the wheel” trading strategy, where you continually write options (starting with a put, typically) to earn premiums on companies you perhaps would like to own stock in anyway, even if the trade goes against you. (It’s worked well for me, though NONE of this post or ANYTHING on wheelscreener.com should be considered investment advice!)

My problem was that I was always stuck using complex or janky UIs to hunt down high credit vs. low collateral options (yes, even with you, Robinhood). I couldn’t find a tool where I could search and filter all options across the entire market.

So I built The Wheel Screener to analyze all the contracts out in the market, prioritizing those which have high premiums and are perhaps not perfectly priced by market makers. It's both mobile and desktop friendly, and should make finding interesting option contracts a breeze!

I would love to hear your comments and critiques, even the most critical! >:)

Also any weird behavior or bugs you find, of course.

What about the premium model and pricing? Would you personally pay $5 a month for the full dataset and the premium features? What features would you need to be willing to pay $5 a month? I’m excited to make many many more features for the premium members! (And maybe a few tidbits here and there for the free and public versions along the way as well :) )

Full tech stack for those interested: Gatsby / React / TypeScript frontend, .NET 5.0 with PostgreSQL backend, Netlify + Fauna DB for user management / auth / devops, Stripe for payments.

I'm around all day / night to answer any questions and comments!

Cheers!

No they buy access to customers. You can't sell to Apple's customer base unless you give them 30% of gross. The world where Apple charges that 30% commission to the devs after the sale or collects it from the customer during the sale is irrelevant. We fork over a lot of money to Apple for the privilege of selling to their customers.
I'm suggesting thats a great thing. Trying to startup a business with extremely small margins and for all of the public is an effort based on madness.
Having . in your $PATH isn't a major security issue on its own. I'd classify it at S3. The problem with S3s though, is that two separate S3s can combine to create an S1 or an S0, which can bite you.

If you've had . in your PATH for a long time and never had a problem with it, it's either because there isn't anything else open that makes this an issue (fairly likely), or that no one's really bothered to exploit your system (also fairly likely)
I had tried this, and had makefiles fail because of this. It seems that if you insist on saving $PATH this way, you should NOT to `export` it.
I totally agree with you here. And the study done by WHO is a step in the right direction. I'm not objecting studying things - on the contrary, I'd be happy to see more studies about Roundup because, as you said, it's used with our food on a mass scale.

What I'm objecting is not quantifying the findings. Asbestos doesn't "cause cancer" the same way Roundup may or may not do, nor is it the same type of cancer. Bundling it all together is what I find harmful. Articles should give threat level.
I do not know what you are talking about but the majority of companies that I have been working in the last decade use Microsoft Windows as operating system. They have absolutely no way they want to support *nix and Windows, so the development is done on Microsoft ecosystem. The next big web framework... again you look to be really close minded in your reality. All the new stuff is cross platform... even the next Asp.Net framework can run on every system. Stop the Microsoft hates and start opening your eyes...

It depends on how much the screen size matters to you, though an iPad using Sidecar might be worth looking at for additional screen real estate.

I put off upgrading a 2016 13" MacBook Pro, thinking that the second iteration of the M1 would be worth the wait. I should have just gone ahead and upgraded earlier. The best thing about the upgrade is that it hasn't been an exciting at all. Instead, all of the minor annoyances of my older laptop went away. It's the same size and weight as my old 13" MacBook Pro, but there is no beachball, no fan noise, and the battery lasts forever.

I also like that it essentially looks the same as recent Intel MacBooks, so it isn't a special target for theft and doesn't look like I spent a ton of money on it.

Here's a side by side comparison.[1] I think the single core Geekbench numbers are often the most relevant to how fast they "feel".

One other note: How revolutionary will the M2 be? A lot of the star talent responsible for improvement in per core performance in the A14 (and M1) chips has been recruited away from Apple[2], so future progress might be slower as it has been for the A15.

FWIW, "The State" has long labeled anti-tyranny dissenters with labels like that. That's why things like ODD are based around _behaviors and actions which are problematic_ vs the dissenting opinion per se.

Freedom of conscious is vital. Without it, we are simply automatons programmed by technocrats.
This is like the turkey on the day before Thanksgiving. "They fed me today. They fed me yesterday. They fed me the day before that. Of course they're going to feed me tomorrow!" Except they aren't.

So, yeah. Our heuristics fail on black swan events. There needs to be a balance between "trust your heuristics" and "watch out for black swans".

Outside of social media (comment lists, facebook feeds, etc) are there any other examples where EC is an appropriate replacement of linearizability?

If you want sequential behavior from your datastructure in the presence of concurrency then, sorry, but linearizability is the only model that meets the requirements. I imagine 99% of programs want their concurrent lists/stacks/queues/maps to behave like their sequential counterparts.

I commute with a 2.5L Golf, I get 25 mpg in urban mountain driving. Stick shift, it's a blast to drive. However, it's also a massive pain in the ass to get in and out of. Especially since my recent abdominal surgery.

When I slip into my SUV I really appreciate the extra space.

When I load all the crap modern children have (car seats, strollers, pack and play, ect) and lug them 300 miles to their grandparents (which I used to do monthly, now once every two months), I also appreciate the extra room.

Speaking of kids, I really appreciate having an extra 1000 lb of inertia (vs. the Golf) protecting them when some idiot on his phone crashes into me. Fellow millennials! Put the phone down!

If (when, really) I move back to CND, I'll appreciate towing 5000 lb trailer worth of stuff to have while the moving companies does their thing.

And you know the best part of the SUV? The Golf doesn't get much better millage! I save more money from the cheaper tires the Golf takes than I do on the gas!
With Tesla's work on autodriving capabilities, I'm kind of hoping this might be Musk's personal R/C car on Mars as an unmanned rover concept before humans get there.
Facebook is different than Yahoo, Google, Microsoft etc, because of it's social aspect. There will be decades upon decades of memories, photos, videos and all the comments associated with them on fb that most people are not going to want to give up. Today I could switch away from Yahoo to AOL or MSN, Google to Bing and Microsoft Windows to Mac OS X and I wouldn't notice any huge difference. I can't switch away from facebook to another social networking site and have it be of any utility to me - and I can only imagine the dominance of facebook because of this social aspect growing in the years to come.

As an aside, the author feels that Microsoft tried to kill itself with all the delays and bugs in Vista, which I would also disagree with. Google, along with a host of other companies, killed Microsoft - because of the talent drain. Once your best and brightest are jumping ship for, as Michael Lewis would call it, the "new new thing", you are pretty much screwed because your product development is going to start going down the tubes.
When firms offer price discrimination (that's what this is called formally, offering different prices to various classes of consumer) they are making more money by taking the consumer surplus that would have been made (the extra money a consumer would have paid for the good).

Think of it this way: a rich man is willing to pay up to $10.00 for the chicken breast that his family needs for dinner, but his blue-collar cousin can only afford $6.00 at the most. Had the grocery store only created one line with the price of $8.00, their revenue from these two consumers would be only the rich man's sale, 8 dollars. If, on the other hand, the store had two lines, one for $5 and one for $10, they can make 15 dollars from these two shoppers!

Hope that clears it up.
I don't think it relates to the amount of money, but about gaining trust. People are more willing to trust someone with their money if they look professional, thus the tellers wearing suits and the fancy lobbies in banks. The traders don't need to gain anyone's trust, so there is no incentive. Similarly, the secretaries and PR people at the software company I work for wear suits, while the programmers wear jeans and a t-shirt.
Your point is they can which I accept.

Mine is that 99.999% of the time they won't.

Almost all limits on people's behaviour in society aren't around what they can or can't do, they're around what they will or won't do. If you annoy me I can stab you but I don't because society is structured such that it isn't in my interest to do so.

Behaviour isn't primarily only controlled by what's possible, it's controlled by what's rewarded and punished.

The same mechanism that prevents you from being a victim of random stabbing means that while in principal your eBooks are vulnerable, in practice they're safe.
To me it just means that you violate one or more laws of physics :)

But now that I think about it, that would seem to be implied, because if something is lasting, it would work with and not against reality.
It costs a lot of money to convince a CEO to come to a failing/faltering company.

Ghostwriter is awesome. I use it frequently and absolutely love it.
Hiring the right person is hard problem even if you ignore the gender part. So you just replaced one problem we don't know how to solve by another problem we don't know how to solve.

Though from certain perspective, it gives us extra motivation to find out who is the right person for the job.
It will be great if you can speak these opinions out loud in the office and in public. I know it’s hard because so many Israelis have strong opinions about regarding Zionism and the native population which Jewish immigrants displaced but the only way people will stop ignoring the injustice is if people like you speak out in public. It is also nice to read your comments here also.
You're not thinking about the other wars we want to fight after the wars we are currently fighting now.
I'm really interested in Julia's performance for general purpose application development. It's great that it can work with large numerical arrays very efficiently, but what about large, diverse graphs of small objects like you commonly find in general purpose application development? I think I want a hybrid between Julia and JVM or something.

Home owners definitely believe that proximity to multitenant housing lowers property values, and vote accordingly (whether that is actually the case is up for debate, but also less relevant to voting behavior than perception).

A good time to remind people that the USA's money-transfer system (aka: ACH) is a giant Rube-Goldberg machine involving FTP transfers of specially formatted files.

Unsaleable in volume while maintaining that price though. Thats why they are concocting these schemes to actually get an exit eventually.

err, i was able to switch it back and forth at will. however, my mind definitely kept wanting to visualize the concave face.
awesome comments guys ! i love hacker news :)
btw totally agree with jdietrich and ericb ..
There are some strong arguments that a senate operating behind closed doors would be more effective at ignoring special interests and working together than otherwise. The writers of the constitution did just this (they swore secrecy of anything they talked about in the convention to avoid voter backlash) [1] This is why they initially wanted health care debates behind closed doors - the lobbyists can make much more use of transparency than the uninterested voter can. Fareed Zakaria wrote a lot about this in The Future of Freedom: Illiberal Democracy at Home and Abroad.

[A Brilliant Solution: Inventing the American Constitution by Carol Berkin]
There is a great book called, experience, and that you cannot buy from amazon.

You feel your code is clunky because of lack of design. And lack of design comes from the fact that we usually don't know what we want to design till we design it. This is where prototypes come in handy because prototypes shed the light on problems that we didn't foresee. Rule of thumb for prototype code is to throw it away once you are done.

What I am trying to say here is that you don't need a book to learn what you are asking for, you need experience.
They did let go of a third of their staff about a year ago.
My librarian wife absolutely hates this trope.
No, the "theory" means "explanation", nothing more, nothing less. Just like "the theory of gravity". Or tide - we all know what tide is and how it happens, and if you explain how it happens (physically), you might call the explanation "the theory of tides" [1].

And inconsistent.

Think about the thousands of humans with bias involved in those decisions one by one.
Wait a day.
Riak & CAP Thereom

Riak's guiding design principle is Dr. Eric Brewer's CAP Theorem. The CAP theorem defines distributed systems in terms of three desired properties: Consistency, Availability, and Partition (failure) tolerance. The theorem states you can only rely on having two of the three properties at any time.

Riak chooses to focus on the A and P of CAP. The choice puts Riak in the eventually consistent camp. However, the window for "eventually consistent" is in terms of milliseconds which can be good enough for many applications.
I used to play a MMO (not WoW, but close) and was fairly well addicted to it. It got to me at a vulnerable time (I'd just moved away from friends and family to start a PhD, and so I had flexible time and no RL friends nearby, so it was a perfect chance to get sucked in), and although I had some fun playing it, I'm very glad I got out when I did.

I saw a lot of good things and many more bad things in my time there. Kids failing school, people getting screwed over in relationships, parents neglecting children, all to play the game. However I also saw people co-operating, people looking out for one another (in one case, my group helped a member get out of an abusive relationship by helping her with her self-confidence so that she was able to confront her partner and ultimately move out), friendships bloom, some relationships that did work out, and lots of positive times as well.

So I'm really torn about it. I think the line for me is when the games start making you pay for the addictive qualities. With the MMO I played there was just the monthly flat fee, and the cost of expansion packs (which were not very frequent). With some of these games coming out now, you pay for items, equipment, horses, farms, etc. and how much money you put in directly influences what you get out of it. And I think that is the definite line for me, crossing into wrong territory.

The issues in the first part that I saw are very difficult to regulate. It's hard to tell whether someone is going to become addicted to the point where they have serious life issues going on. Plenty of people can maintain a casual relationship with these sorts of games. But when you start tying money to direct actions like these new "social" games do, it's directly profiting from these vulnerable people. And that for me is wrong.
Excuse yourself from the search for hard problems and pursue your interests. Build a foundation in subjects that captivate you.

You'll never be smarter, but that's a meaningless term anyway. You are inclined to learn more about things that matter to you. And because these concepts are fascinating your focus will exceed that of any disinterested person with a natural aptitude.

Not long from now you'll be discussing entomology or artificial intelligence or interior design with an uncommon passion and someone will wish they were as smart as you.
I'm 24 and graduating with a MSCS from Stanford this week. The last two years have made me much smarter and more comfortable with theory than I was two years ago. Of course, I also worked far harder here than I ever have in my life. Highly recommend the experience.

Some advice coming from someone who dealt – and is still often dealing – with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.

The very first thing you have to understand is that your perception is biased by your mental issues, is your feeling of incompetence backed by any facts? Is your boss continually complaining about your performance? And even if your performances are as bad as you think they are, I wouldn't be surprised since you seem to hate every moment of your life.

From how you described yourself, I don't see a loser, I see a 43 years old man who's going through a lot of sacrifices to provide for his family, I'd call that courage. I don't see a loser, I see someone with a serious case of depression, everything you described ticks all the boxes.

There is no magic pill to get you out of that, and coping mechanisms only goes so far. You need therapy, plain and simple, and, if possible, time off your job.

Start doing things you enjoy, don't code because you have too, maybe you're at a time in your life where code isn't what you want to do anymore, and that's fine, no shame in that, or maybe you just need a little time off. Many men completely turn their lives around in their 40s, it's not too late, but you have to take risks, you have to try new things, physical activity such as weightlifting is usually great because it'll raise your testosterone levels, but you can also start things you never thought you'd want to try: music, dance, writing, astrophotography, bird watching, anything.

Just remember this: your thoughts are not logical, it's not your analytic brain that's telling you you're worthless, it's depression, and pardon my French by depression is a bitch, it's that asshole of a friend, always in your head telling you just how much of a failure you are even when it's untrue.

Don't isolate yourself from people who care, there are more than you think and they need to know what you're going through. Seek medical help, and take it easy, friend.

"It gets easier. Every day it gets a little easier. But you gotta do it every day —that’s the hard part. But it does get easier."
Why would an app store be dealing breaking? Any service that you have to use offers a web page and good software (that doesn't abuse the users) ends up packaged and available in the OS repos.

So then these media platforms are in collusion

They've been doing quite the dance to keep out of discovery.

Facebook et al control a lot of internet traffic through their users. Many of their users still treat their platform like it is the internet.
