API

fanzakh

I asked chatgpt why Nvidia chips are superior to AMD chips for AI development and chatgpt itself says "Nvidia has developed CUDA, a parallel computing platform and API, which allows developers to leverage the GPU's capabilities effectively. This, combined with a vast ecosystem of software libraries, frameworks, and tools, makes Nvidia chips a popular choice for AI development."

kopeezie

Cuda is an API to drive the hardware.  No hardware then its hugely diminished in value.  Only residual value is then good for the interface.  And well interface is always copied.

Think of search like a utility, no one is going to build out the infrastructure to compete with an Oncore for instance but tons of players exist of the resellers market. When an LLM “searches” for something that isn’t already in its training data, it’s likely hitting a Google API because like with the utility analogy, NO ONE is building out search infra to compete with Google’s 26 year head start. Many have tried and all have failed.

stonk_monk42069

That is a VERY naive and simply incorrect statement to start off your post. Their MOAT is the whole stack, from chip, to interconnects and networking, to software/CUDA. Do you have the slightest idea how difficult it is to build efficient datacenter solutions? Bottlenecks need to be constantly improved and removed across all products.  Also "they can just steal their API"?  You obviously don't have a single clue what you're talking about.  I should know this by now, but this sub still keeps surprising me with people's lack of knowledge and just pure ignorance. 

floppy_panoos

Do you really think that Apple, the same company that laid the Apple “Intelligence” turd is really gonna use AI to catch up on 26 years of search indexing? The answer is the same as it is in literally every other company and technology that touts “internet search”; they build a fancy looking front end, in this case it’s an LLM that hooks up to the Google API. The problem that Wall Street has is they’re trading a product they know nothing about besides a financial work sheet. Don’t be like them…

Chagrinnish

Making drivers that duplicates an API is not IP infringement. And if a Chinese company wanted to get into the GPU game they could use an open API like OpenCL or ROCm anyway. You should also be aware of [Moore Threads](https://www.mthreads.com/), a company in China that is producing their own GPUs. I know they have DX12 drivers, and GPUStack also supports them, but the specs for these cards are not at all noteworthy at this time.

unhappyreach_

What about the API the AI uses to gather info ?

unhappyreach_

My theory is that they are going to change the API model If they force the monopoly issue, they could go nuclear and charge for everything they offer for free. But yes, ultimately, the better Gemini gets, the less people will want to use search. It's a real issue lol

unhappyreach_

Is the Google API free? Watch them start charging the way reddit did AI answers are going to be trash when they can't crawl the Google index

himynameis_

Not trying to sell you too much here. When I talk Price/PerformAnce I was referring to the API keys for developers to use these models. In terms of coding, I saw a lot of very positive reviews for Gemini 2.5 Pro as well. Maybe give it a shot for your programming and see what you think? It is possible I'm a bit off. 🤷

floppy_panoos

GOOGL gonna rip back once dumb-stupid Wall Street figures out Apple’s “search” will still be hitting the Google API. Unless Apple wants to try to catch to the 26-year head start Google has, god help ‘em if that’s what they decide to do…

elaboratexplanation

To where though? There is no good second option. Everyone joined the mass blackout last year with the API changes and then came right back to Reddit

GetOutOfTheWhey

I have no clue either. For one thing, AI search bots are using google API to do those searches And also google has skin in the AI game too.

floppy_panoos

Buying as much GOOGL as my lil pockets can carry. Down on some bullshit about Apple interacting “search” into Safari and dumb, stupid Wall Street doesn’t understand that when companies do this, 9/10 times they’re hitting the Google API in the backend. Literally free money right now…

loremipsum106

100% agree. ToS is pretty trash except for the IV report, which I otherwise have to get via API. Can confirm that optionstrat is badass.

warpedspockclone

Literally anywhere else. Throw a dart at a wall of brokers and you'll get better than Robinhood. If you want to dive into it, then you can optimize for your use case: low liquidity, targeted exchanges, low commissions (for high volume), API availability, educational resources, mobile vs desktop platforms, etc etc etc. You can google your question and you will get links to review sites that compare and contrast brokers.

turboMXDX

People tried to move on from reddit after the API fiasco. Subreddits were shutdown, mass protests inside the subreddits, people claiming they're totally for sure never ever coming back, 3rd party apps either stopped development or changed to a paid model. Yet here we are, back to business. So, it's buy for me

pipes____

Up to this point they haven’t been sourcing their API from novo to my knowledge. They would have been providing Compounded versions. The drug API likely sourced from China until now.

puzzled_orc

I can see it now. Thank you. Football matches have finished. I like the API, being able to set a json file with the criteria is great. I might become a big fan. In case you are interested, and probably you are not, this is why I wasn't able to see it earlier. https://youtu.be/1-geGEYEw7g?si=VzYaS_LUFfDc6w1h

debian3

Here the API: https://volumes.portoptimizer.com/ The following week it’s up 34%, the article obviously doesn’t mention that.

Aggressive_Luck27

Sure and that's the play they're trying to make. But that has changed a lot in the last few years. A lot of ordinary people left with the API changes and most popular Reddits are becoming shittier. The idea from a few years ago was that Google search sucked because it pushed too many sites that were low quality SEO farms. So people added Reddit to searches to find more authentic information. That has completely changed with llms. Not only is Google search much better at answering questions now, but people are using llm bots to target Reddit because it currently has the appearance of being more authentic.

Training_Pay7522

Because OpenAI is completely worthless as the latest launches of competing models show. Moreover, AI models are commodities, not products. Users don't care which API is answering, they care if it's correct and fast, and those things keep improving for all companies.

Splittinghairs7

Remember those subReddit blackouts over API changes and those who claimed that the loss of third party apps would ruin Reddit? Pepperidge farm remembers.

ferwhatbud

No, this is the way it’s been for decades, API manufacturing is dirty, dangerous stuff, and Americans refuse to tolerate that kind of industry in their backyards.

ferwhatbud

This has always been known, and was one of the greatest advantages of being a developed country in a globalized world. Because API manufacturing is filthy, dangerous stuff - it’s not some kind of oversight that drug manufacturing in the US is overwhelmingly late stage, it’s that Americans have made it clear that they’re not only not willing to work in such a poisonous environment, but also won’t tolerate that kind of toxic industry in their neighborhoods.

ferwhatbud

Final product manufacturing though, not API - that’s the bottleneck, and isn’t something the US really does anymore, especially for common small molecules (mostly because it’s filthy and dangerous to work).

ferwhatbud

That’s not correct (maybe the 98% is for some particular subset?). [Together, India and China make up about 2/3 of the API inputs of drugs in western nations.](https://www.statista.com/topics/12873/active-pharmaceutical-ingredients-apis-and-excipients/) Also worth noting that API manufacturing has been SUPER dynamic in the last decade-ish, with a lot of the raw chemical production that was being done in china having shifted over to India for all kinds of largely US driven regulatory reasons.

YolkToker

I work directly in formulation supply management. We don't use any Chinese suppliers for Ibuprofen in US products, and we have *major* market share. You can look yourself--for single API OTC drugs, their country of manufacture is the API source location. Amazon basics uses India suppliers. Kroger uses India. I don't believe that 95% number at all.

Bullumai

And Indian pharmaceutical industry is heavily dependent on APIs from China. > India's pharmaceutical industry is heavily reliant on China for the import of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs), with imports accounting for roughly 70% of its total API needs.  A major part of Xi Jinping's strategy has been to position China at the heart of global industry and supply chains, making it increasingly difficult for the world to alienate China out of international trade.

robinhood API down for anyone else for a bit?

Defiant-Salt3925

With 0DTE, if the price hits my call strike, I buy the futures to flatten the trade at expiry. I monitor the trades very closely, and the main challenge is when the price moves in and out of my short strangle's range, requiring me to quickly buy or sell the futures contract. Slippage and commissions are the cost of this strategy, but I've managed to keep my losses below the premium I receive when opening the trade. I'm currently working on an API to automate this strategy, reduce slippage, and minimise screen time. You're saying you manage other people's capital? Does that mean selling strangles is your full-time job?

Defiant-Salt3925

I sell strangles on the same tickers, a few currency futures, and other highly liquid securities. I love ES due to its unmatched liquidity—I almost always find a way to close for a 50% profit and roll the untested side when ES strangles move against me. If one of my strikes is breached, I turn the position into a straddle and even go inverted when necessary. ES is the only ticker I know with the liquidity that allows for these types of adjustments, especially since liquidity dries up once strikes go in the money. So far, I’ve never closed an ES strangle for a loss, even during the recent market crash. I usually have 15–20 strangles open at all times. I don’t pay as much attention to news and events as you do, because with options, most of it is already priced in—and volatility is overstated the majority of the time. I typically use around half of my buying power to get the best return on capital. I sell around 45 DTE, using 10–15 delta strikes on both sides, and close at 14 DTE at the latest to avoid gamma risk. Recently, I started dabbling with 0DTE strangles on CL, GC, ES, and ZB, and I’ve been very profitable. When one of my strikes is touched, I hedge by going long or short the future and let the trade expire. If I’m assigned, the position is flattened and losses are minimal. I also beta-weight my entire portfolio to ES/MES and use those futures to neutralise the delta across my positions. I’m currently working on an API to integrate with my account so I can automate delta hedging and rebalance my deltas every day or so—minimising screen time. As I said, I trade options fairly aggressively, but I really like your approach. It’s especially well-suited for newer traders interested in selling options on futures and commodities. They should definitely read and absorb all the valuable info from your write-up.

ChatGPT is already using the Bing API under the hood to get search results. The infrastructure would just be provided by Bing.

im_a_squishy_ai

Buddy, here's a concrete example. When DeepSeek was released all the tech bros ran around saying they just copied OpenAI. The problem here, is that the DeepSeek group published their papers and we can see the math they used in their models. It *was not math that had been used in models before, that's why it was so much more efficient*. They had a new change to the algorithm, that if you know even basic linear algebra, you can understand. Now we don't know how they trained their code. Maybe they called OpenAI a bunch to speed it up, maybe they trained it on raw data. We don't know. But here's the thing about this. Even *if* they just called the OoenAI API to help speed up their training dataset, I don't really think that's a problem. OpenAI and the big tech bros have been scraping everyone's data, both open, and private, and copyrighted, for years without really telling anyone exactly what they were doing with it. In order for the "they stole our data" complaint from silicon valley to gold any water silicon valley would need to *fully remunerate everyone and every company who's data they used to train their AI models and algorithms* before they'd have any right to complain about someone, and this is key because they have no real proof DeepSeek did this, allegedly stealing their data. More likely I think it's that there's a real competitor that they don't know how to compete with because in the US they're allowed to run monopolies and buy out anyone who might ever compete with them.

JoJo_Embiid

yes, but through that google only earn API fees, which is only a tiny fraction compared to ads click fee. And also, in terms of search index database, google is not that far ahead compared to bings, and bings, even some small startups (like [you.com](http://you.com) etc, ) , provide more competitive pricing. Also, the business will shift from 2c to 2b, 2b business is way harder as companies are much more sensitive to pricing.

Yeah that's my worry. It would be great if Yahoo Finance or something "official"/public had an API

I have android and over the years I seen the OeMs become literal Google lap dogs/colonies. All the Google skins and apps in Samsung, OnePlus and nothing is poo. I want an open API for rcs.

iThinkiStartedATrend

Astroturfing has been a thing on this site for as long as I can remember, but when they changed their API prices it pretty much opened the door to wealthy(less ethical) actors to have free reign. Assume all posts are ads/propaganda of some sort. Even me.

The_GASK

No, they need to fork it if they want to limit third party developers from accessing the same low level API that they use for their own apps and services. Before this ruling an Apple watch had unique features when paired with an iPhone that other smart watches couldn't access. Not anymore. The "Swipe an app from your IPad to the MacBook" is now accessible to also a Galaxy tab and any other device when paired with an Apple product. For a long time you could make things in the Apple ecosystem, but they would never be as good as Apple's own product at a fundamental, kernel-level because they never gave you access to it.

API glitch probably

ski-dad

At the risk of being pedantic, the reason the outage only affected windows is that the pattern that caused the issue was directly related to Windows IPC. There was a similar outage previously related to Linux. Yea, there’s Falcon for IOS, but look at capabilities compared to even MacOS, let alone Windows. In a perfect world, there’d be a common cross-platform security API to fetch file, process, and network metadata, and to perform blocking and containment. Probably not going to happen though.

Yes optimizing the matrix multiplication is one part that cuda is good at and what needs to be optimized for rocm or similar. But for large scale model training the bigger optimization challenge is getting a network of 1000+ gpus to co-operate as optimally as possible. NCCL -> RCCL. So maybe LLM would need to write (just once for both amd and huawei) the equivalent of CUDA: GPU programming API cuDNN: Optimized deep learning kernels cuBLAS: Optimized math kernels NCCL: Optimized multi-GPU communication TensorRT: Inference speedup tool Nsight Suite: Debugging & profiling tools NVCC: CUDA code compiler

What weight loss drug does Roche manufacture? Also, the glucose monitor is a medical device- not a pharma product that requires an “active pharmaceutical ingredient” (API). There are few APIs that can be sourced solely within the U.S. While the final drug can be manufactured in the U.S., the truth is that the most expensive input will have to be imported.

Access to everything pretty much through the build of an API between IRS, social security, and possibly later, other institutions Welcome to black mirror.

No one knows what's flying above US grounds and it's scary. Administration is somewhat reassuring but no clue what's up. Fast forward to today and the question. No one talks about this anymore.

Khrinshaw

u/xevaviona Love the “GPT wrapper” callout — you’re right to question what’s under the hood. The AI isn’t meant to trade for you — no tool can reliably predict markets, and I’m not pretending otherwise. Instead, it’s a dead-simple coach for retail options traders (9-to-5ers dreaming of going full-time). It analyzes your trades to spot sloppy habits, like FOMO buys or bad risk-reward, and gives clear, data-backed tips to improve, like “Your late-day calls lose 20% more — try morning setups.” Why use it? Because small fixes add up, helping you trade smarter without complex apps. On the “GPT wrapper”: Fair point — the AI uses a language model (like GPT) to make advice conversational, but it’s not just a chatbot. It’s paired with trade-specific logic that crunches your trade data (win rate, risk-reward, etc.) to generate tailored tips. We’re also exploring lightweight ML to make it smarter over time — think clustering your trades to find patterns (e.g., “Your scalps on low-volume stocks tank 15% more”) or ranking your worst habits by impact. This ML doesn’t need massive datasets; it learns from your trade history to personalize advice, not predict markets. Connecting to trading accounts: The tool would link to your brokerage (e.g., Robinhood, TD Ameritrade) via a secure API — no manual uploads. You’d authenticate once, and it pulls your trade history (entry/exit prices, volume, etc.) to calculate metrics and feed the AI. This makes it effortless: you trade, it analyzes, you get tips like “Cut trades after 2 PM to boost your win rate.” Security’s key — we’d use OAuth and encryption to keep your data safe.

Khrinshaw

20 years in data analysis and ML gives you a heavy-hitting perspective, and I’m glad you’re calling out the potential pitfalls. I hear you loud and clear on the risks of oversimplifying a complex problem like trading, and I want to unpack your points to clarify what I’m aiming for and address your concerns. You’re spot-on that trading is an optimization problem, and chasing recent patterns can slam you into constraint boundaries. I’ve seen enough models overfit to noise to know that’s a real danger. The AI coach I’m proposing isn’t about “boosting returns” through some magic formula or overfitting to recent trades. Instead, it’s focused on helping retail traders spot basic, repeatable mistakes — like consistently poor risk management, FOMO-driven entries, or ignoring stop-losses. The AI would analyze their trade history and suggest practical, principle-based improvements (e.g., “Your risk-reward ratio is below 1:1 on 70% of trades — aim for 1:2”), not chase hot trends. It’s more about discipline than optimization. Does that framing reduce the “shoot yourself in the foot” risk, or do you see other traps in even this approach? And great point about the challenge of finding a large, appropriate training set. Complex ML models for trading need massive, clean datasets, and retail traders’ data is often messy or limited. To clarify, I’m not envisioning a full-blown ML model predicting market moves or requiring huge datasets. The “AI” here is more about lightweight, rule-based analysis combined with a language model (like those powering chatbots) to interpret trade data and generate human-readable advice. For example, it calculates metrics like win rate or average loss from a user’s trade log and uses predefined logic to suggest improvements, with the language model making it conversational. It’s less “deep learning” and more “smart analytics with a friendly face.” Would a simpler approach like this still seem naive, or is the data hurdle still a dealbreaker in your view? On Credibility and Trust: Ouch, the “random Redditor” jab hits hard, but it’s a fair challenge. You’re right — without credibility, a free tool sounds like a gamble, especially in a space full of sketchy promises. To be transparent, this is an early-stage idea to gauge interest, not a finished product. My background is in building user-focused tools, not finance, so I’d need to partner with trading experts or analysts like yourself to make it legit. The tool would likely be built on a platform like [Bolt.new](http://Bolt.new), integrating basic trade data APIs and a proven language model API (e.g., OpenAI). To earn trust, I’d open-source parts of the logic, share clear documentation, and start with a beta for feedback from traders. What would it take for a tool like this to earn your trust — a track record, expert endorsements, or something else? “AI can’t profitably trade but can tell you how to profitably trade” does sound like nonsense, and I appreciate you calling it out. Let me clarify: I don’t believe AI can autonomously trade profitably (like a quant fund’s algo) due to market complexity and unpredictability. But I do think AI can help traders improve by analyzing their past trades and pointing out behavioral or strategic flaws, like “You’re overtrading after losses — try capping daily trades at 3.” It’s about coaching the trader, not trading for them. Does that distinction make sense, or do you still see it as a contradiction? With your experience in predictive analytics and optimization, you’ve probably seen tools that promised big and flopped. I’d love your take on how a tool like this could avoid those traps. For example, what guardrails would you put in place to prevent recency bias or over-optimization? And what’s one feature you’d want in a trading analysis tool to actually make it useful for someone with your background? Thanks again for the reality check — your insights are gold for shaping this idea. No BS, I’m here to learn from feedback like yours.

It would take years for new API production to shift to the United States, and a gutted FDA will mean delayed inspections. Tariffs won't have a big financial impact on pharma because selling prices are so high. It's not a good incentive to shift production back.

Look into the companies that just launched a new drug in America. New drugs are 90% made in America to make the approval process much easier. So what you would need to do is look into that company and see where they are getting their API sourced. If you’re having trouble with that look at the clinical trials it will give you a good idea how they sourced it. Hope that helps. Good thinking on your part.

I have logged several years of driving data on my 2018 Model 3. I have start and stop GPS coordinates for every drive since 2019 along with a mileage calculation based on the car’s odometer. This data is stored on a 3rd party website not controlled by Tesla, but it’s automatically logged via Tesla’s API to my car’s data. One of my longest single drives without stopping was between the Mishawaka, Indiana Supercharger and the Strongsville, Ohio Supercharger. It took place on July 22, 2020. Google Maps says the drive should be 240 miles. My car logged 245.26 miles 😐

I’ll jump in and second this. I use ChatGPT (premium for 20$/month) and it has paid itself off in no time. Great tool for reviewing plenty of things. In relation to trading I would just say, use it for theory; it’s API for stock pricing seems to be out of date.

ValuesHappening

If I have to use it manually to manually go through many thousands of potential tickers, then what was originally described does not exist. If I can use the API to build my own bot, then congratulations - the bot doesn't exist yet. The point is that it's meaningless to say "nobody has to make anything! you just have to... build a bot using an API" The exact functionality described here doesn't exist. Yes, certain tools could be used to make _visualizing_ the opportunities a bit easier, but if you have to do a bunch of manual work to build crap then you can't try to claim it already exists.

They have a slower API so they can charge customers less. So it tends to be a little behind if that’s what you mean

It probably uses an API to access someone else’s AI

US Customs tariff database now calling Truth Social API.

Its even stupider than that. All the API's needed to make the drugs in the US come from China. If Americans want more expensive drugs onshoring manufacturing is the way to do it.

Rofl at vibe coding. When you put an API call to chatgpt to calculate the response on the source code of catching an exception, you know you fucked up. Or maybe you don't know lol.

yup you are right the supplier is indeed the one taking on the risk legality and monetarily. most of them operate out of china to avoid the long arm of the united states (and it makes sense since that's where basically all the API sources/manufacturing is anyways). regarding trust most responsible "research" lab rats pay extra to test their "kits" by sending one of their vials to a 3rd party lab for testing purposes. the steroid bros have been doing this for decades with their growth hormones. for example this one is known as the crown jewel and is located in the czech republic: https://janoshik.com/pricing/ there's other ones in the US that are picking up steam too though as it's a lucrative market at the moment. general guidance is to test everything, buy from sources that have been around a while and have a long list of 3rd party COA's to backup their reliability and to share any bad test results/news with the greater community as soon as folks become aware of it. this practice tends to weed out the shitty grifters quickly and keeps the bigger names on their toes as they have a lot to lose reputation wise if they start slipping up as there's a constant stream of 3rd party tests coming out daily/weekly within the buying community. but yup, i agree, it is indeed a pretty sweet setup! my life has changed DRAMATICALLY with this drug and i know i'll be on some form of it for the rest of my life.

u/SamRHughes claim your own free API key [here ](https://www.alphavantage.co/support/#support), not sure how many queries you can run per day but this is an awesome service

Is Discord down for others? I am receiving a "Elevated API latency" message stating Discord is investigating, across two browsers and the ap, all three. Anyone else?

onlypeterpru

Yeah that’s a real pain with Webull. Tradier might be worth a look—clean API access, GTCs, and decent support. Not perfect, but better tools for active options traders without jumping through hoops.

try using limit orders instead of market orders at open - they give you more control over the price. also, consider setting up a stop-limit order to manage volatility. i’ve had better execution rates with these strategies. for faster fills, Lime trading’s low latency API helps a lot.

Man, the Reddit API changes have really fucked the app

JesusChristSupers1ar

> Trump and Dump Bot I ended up coming across those but they look to only track his Twitter account, not his Truth Social (they were built during his first term). He's much more active on Truth Social so the bot would need to integrate with a Truth Social API

Independent-Cress382

Are you doing some kind of API call or using a scraping library? Cron job with a periodic get request?

Vegan_Honk

Everyone thought world war 3 would be nukes.  Turns out it's API and financial markets

twiztidsoulz

it's just manually inputting off the options chain right now (with implied volatility + DTE), but I might extend it a bit to just pull from an API and simplify the process. A more detailed example - PLTR closed at 77.32, but has some strength around ~80. I think it will re-test near ~65 (support) soon, so I look at buying some near the money puts, like 75's. Personally, I prefer further out in case I'm wrong, so targeting like the 16 May chain, $75 put with 37DTE has 108.11% IV right now. As I type this, my broker is showing the last price ~9.15 mid, but estimating my spot price at ~80, I get ~8.12. I set a limit order to buy at ~8.30 for some leeway, a stop-loss at 10%, and a take profit limit at 20%. It's not super automated at the moment, but it has worked much better for me in planning out and keeping to a defined plan, which keeps me from over-trading.

Most of not all ozempic and wegovy is filled locally in the US, unsure about the API though

I worked at a public biopharma years ago and did the cost accounting for inventory (raw, wip, finished) and global revenue. Anyhow, when I had to do inventory counts of the API (active pharmaceutical ingredient), it was in Europe/UK/Ireland, some work was then performed in the States to microbead it, then it was encapsulated/packaged in Europe, then sent back to States, and then to distributors world wide... Think of all the back and forth tariffs added to cost to manufacture this example.

So... If this doesn't come with some coinciding fast track/incentive to start synthesizing API here, this could get wild. 85% of generic API is synthesized in China/india. So almost every generic drug could skyrocket. China could also just put on an export restriction of API like they are doing on rare earths. I'm sure RFK is on it tho. We definitely won't face shortages, back orders and price increases. Right now Medicare will eat some costs, but pharmacies will likely eat a huge cost due to industry price indicators not keeping up, leading to reimbursement below acquisition. Pharmacies are already falling apart and getting obliterated as a sector, leading to closures. Should be fun when rural people have to drive 30 miles to the only pharmacy left with hours that are shortened to 9-5 on 5 days a week because they can't afford more pharmacists.

API is doing GREAT. Beautiful code, strongest endpoints, people are amazed. Slow rollout? Yes—but not our fault. Users aren’t ready. They don’t read. They click the wrong things, then blame US. Sad! We have features. Big features. But we hold back—for their own good. Too powerful right now. Like handing a jet engine to a bicycle. Dangerous stuff. Still, it’s working. The logs are beautiful. Exception handling? Maybe the best ever done. More coming. Big wave soon. GOD BLESS

Reasonable_Tower3816

why ppl blaming my boy walter, he's just an API copying reuters news ticker which was citing CNBC

PaulThomas37878

Yes - a good example is API for brand name medications currently under patent.
