If you were to call one of us radicalized, it would definitely be you. I (among other people) am simply saying that AI is a garbage product today (unless i write code). So i treat it as any other garbage product out there. You are saying that of all the shit products out there that can theoretically work some day (which is a very likely outcome) we should pick AI and give it a pass, try it out, invest a shit ton of money into it etc. Why AI and not flying cars? Or spaceships? Or crispr? Or cloning? Or whatever scifi stuff out there? Because some richboys in sillicon valley have brainwashed you into thinking about AI all day. And please, same way you asked me to read your post carefully, read this again: is there ANY other reason you are here right now defending AI VS all other technologies other than "because the sillicon valley bros told me this is the future"? We have so many other things going on that actually WORK, but oh no, you want us to give AI a chance. The only product in human history that demands you pay it (token consumption) even if it spews a wrong answer. I repeat, not only it is a shit product. It CHARGES YOU even when it is objectively wrong. Yet i am the radicalized one.

mallory6767

Yeah but its not right? Consumers are paying $100 for $1000 of compute. Inference is expensive. Chips depreciate. Data centers have huge operating expenses. So its just VS money buying AI.

Melodic-Profit7079

its not anecdotal its the same in our company, although we spend the most through snowflake (and using sonnet/opus 5.5) and MS copilot. We also allow github copilot licenses for those workig in VS code. Token usage is increasing although still concentrated to savvy individuals (3% of the workforce use up 80% of the usage tokens)

Mediocre_Gap2236

Does it matter to have infrastructure? Snowflake doesn’t own infrastructure, we use opus 5.5 or Sonnet 5.5 on their data AI We use Opus 5.5 on Microsoft Copilot instead of GPT 6.1 sol Those that are coding using VS Code with GithubCopilot are picking Claude models too For corporate use Claude is already the way. Why? Because they were the best when AI was first a thing with our SWEs who were the first movers using AI Most corporates start using AI because of their software team, and Anthropic the first models that had wide penetration

Alright, I'll admit my statement was incorrect, but so was your's. BTW how does it make sense to call us a dictatorship if you're not actually referring to the person in power? Here's the math. 75,019,230 VS 77,303,568 vs 2,878,359 https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/statistics/elections/2024 267,454,918 adults in the US above 18 in 2024 https://datacenter.aecf.org/data/tables/6538-adult-population-by-age-group#detailed/1/any/false/575 267,454,918−155,201,157=112,253,761 112,253,761÷267,454,918= 42% of adults who didn't vote. 77,303,568÷267,454,918= 29% of voters who voted for Trump above the age of 18. So you're essentially judging an entire country because of 29% of the population when you say we're a dictatorship, assuming logically, that you're referring to the person in power. Even if the numbers are slightly different you're still judging an entire country including non-citizen residents, children and people who can't vote by a small percentage of the country. Heck more people voted against him than for him if you add votes for 3rd party candidates and the democratic party together. Also, assuming that people who don't vote but participate in polling is by its inherent nature illogical.

We switched from cursor to VS CODE with Claude plugin so we can get on the Claude Max plan. This way we get daily what we used to get over the entire month on Cursor. I'm curious if you considered that?

The problem is also that most users don't go search on Claude website, like they do with Gemini. They use Claude code. Unless, Anthropic is going to show ads on Cursor or VS, there is very little scope to make a profit from ads.

Melodic-Profit7079

I mean the Companies themselves are ultimately signing off their books but I shit you not I literally did my company accounts this last financial year with Claude doing 99% of the grunt work and this was just Opus 5. Opus 5.5 is literally next level I swear I wont even have to do proper instructions next year if we're on like Opus 7 or 8 or whatever frontier shit comes out by then. People in white collar are actually not ready for what is about to hit them. If your company's data team gets their shit together and puts the right Data in Snowflake/Databricks whatever cloud AI platform there is, accounting & financial analysis as a profession is fucking beyond cooked because how tied in it is with how a LLM operates. I don't know jack shit about coding and 99% of my time at work was spent in excel in the past writing up formulas and doing pivot tables. Now I work almost exclusively in VS code, extracting data via SQL which claude whips up, Manipulates our spreadsheet with Python which claude whips up, and then I end up doing presentations in fucking interactive HTML which Caude whips up instead powerpoint slides. Its like a fucking Sci-fi. My job literally got flipped upside down in the span of 6 months. I've been nominated by my boss to do tours across our offices in the country to teach everyone how to use VS code as a vibe coder to do the same lol. There might not be mass job cuts immediately but we sure as hell aren't gonna hire those 10-15 interns & grads every year if we can just replace them with agents instead for 1/10th of their salary costs.

VolSignals guys is a terrible trader, sells more products than walmart itself, he is not suited for newbies but nothing in this world is. VS3D is a complete ripoff of the OD platform, they even started promoting it using the same colors, OD created the concept behind the maps, first to implement and people behind it are far more accesible. Mr. Volsignals is a drama queen he says he's open to debate but at the first thing he doesnt like he blocks you. He's a seller that's been scamming people about him being a market maker, yeah sure...

Skittler_On_The_Roof

While you're at work, what % of people getting rides on a Tuesday afternoon are going to be puking?  25 rides per week, 1 puke would be 4%.  It's statistically more likely to be something like once a year.  And with the surcharge, it means once a year you drip it off at the detail shop for them to deal with as well as detailing the rest of your car. Plus, right now with $20 fares there's a disproportionate amount of people only using it for bar hopping or concerts.  Not a lot paying $40/day for daily commute.  If it's like people here say where it's going to be a race to the bottom, the rideshare prices will be a fraction of that meaning now you've got the onslaught of commuters who now don't own a car or take the bus.  Much better ratio of regular rides VS Saturday night drunks.

Skittler_On_The_Roof

$40k car with FSD $400/month lease Lease means no repairs and maybe tires for maintenance  5 rides a day, 5 days a week at even $5 is $125/week.  This covers the lease and insurance.   You could do more with night/weekend  rides. VS spending say $10 per ride, 10x per week plus weekend trips. Please, tell me how the second option costs less for you average person.

Skittler_On_The_Roof

As a consumer, if you offer to sell me a car for $400/month that's an EV lease so I pay nothing for repairs or maintenance, and I can make $600/month having it give rides while I'm at work... AND I don't have to deal with hailing a ride every day for work- it's just there.... Why would you do the costlier option that doesn't offer the car there instantly? Aside from city dwellers with mortgage-sized parking costs, I'd rather "own" it. Even if rideshare costs plummet, it'll still be $5 x 2 per day, which is about a $2,000 cost annually.  VS owning where you make money and it's more convenient.  Even if you don't make money and just break even, it's a $2k savings and more convenient. Ebike rentals in every city hasn't got all of the daily commute riders renting bikes. And owning those doesn't make you money.

Well one way to value a company is discounted cash flows You understand the concept that $100 today is worth more than $100 in 10 years. If I have $100 today I could put it in a bank account collect interest and have more than $100 in ten years right? Or buy goverment bonds So if I have a bond that will pays zero interest , but will promise to pay me back $100 in 10 years what is it worth today? Well it depends on what the risk free rate of return is, or interest rates. In overly simplified example if rates are 2% well that bond is worth about $82 today to match the 2% interest If rates rise to 10% that bond is only worth $38 today Now understand companies are valued in much the same way, they have future earnings , they hopefully will have earnings over the next 20-30-40-100 years When rates rise their future earnings get discounted just like in the example of the bond. Their expected earnings in year 10 get discounted more when rates are 2% VS 6%

I count 4, not 5. There might be more now, I don't know. It's pretty easy to spot naive gamma models. They're "too neat" with a smooth progression from positive to negative gamma as you go down in strikes. Once you're in "negative gamma," there is no random positive gamma individual strikes with the naive model. The naive model is only showing you where things are going from call dominated to put dominated, which is why it looks the way it does. Once you see the difference between the models, it becomes \*very\* easy to spot. Because the real dealer positions are not anywhere near as neat as that. The accurate models will tell you exactly how much market makers are short or long and of what type of contracts. I had been an UnusualWhales subscriber for a long time, and was there when they introduced Periscope. I had listened to Brent Kochuba a number of times thanks to him appearing on Tastylive's "Jones & Friends" show forever ago (at least as far back as 2021, maybe 2022). I happened across VolSignals randomly on twitter in early 2025 and saw him, time stamped and everything, demonstrate knowing when price was going to stop, pause and eventually reverse intraday. So, I joined his chat to see if I could find out more. Turns out he was using OptionsDepth at the time for the accurate data and swore by it. He has since created his own model with his own developers--many of whom are relationships he had from when he was a market maker himself, and starting selling subscriptions to it towards the end of 2025. CBOE sells the accurate positioning data, the above 4 are just the companies I know of who parse it and display it in their own way--and it's generally cheaper to buy from them and use their already processed product than it would be to pay CBOE directly yourself. They're able to defray the costs by selling subscriptions. I do like OptionsDepth and VS3D for their gradient maps that update with the every 10 minute position updates. SpotGamma may have something similar--I'm not sure, but Periscope does not. Periscope just has the greeks by strike and positions by strike. The charm gradient graphs in particular are very useful from OD and VS3D once you understand what it's telling you about what market makers need to do as time passes closer to expiration.

I mean one of the benefits of direct indexing is tax loss harvesting, in a Roth this would be negated . The other issue is generally equal weight indexes under perform. Also buying 500 separate companies at $5 each , so 5k buckets means you will probably lose $5 each buy on the bid ask spread assuming you lose a penny on each stock. VS like $0.05 on buying voo . If you are worried about spy being too concentrated on a few companies or tech there is just better ways to balance out your portfolio. Add a value index, add mid/small cap index. Add ex USA index just to name a few ways better to diversify.

Also, you should at least have a vague idea (you don't have to be a genius like Leopold Aschenbrenner) what you're hedging out or actually trading. I've found that options is more like tennis than darts. Sometimes you think you're playing your opponent's lukewarm (conservative) serves but then halfway thru the match, you realize a bit too late that the match was more about his fitness and serve placement VS your fatness and weak returns. With a comfortable lead, he all of a sudden finds his first serves. He hedged correctly. My short put strangle on RDDT has been like this, but I think I caught it in time to adjust, so hopefully things go my way again on the reddit stock roller coaster. Love options.

As I said, theta immunity give you rooms to make mistakes on the timing, and during bad situation if things go side way and delay the direction U don’t need to win big, u need to win more, consistently with highest safety and protections if u want to do this for 10-20-30years straight. I short Tesla and Spy the day before NFR right at the top. If u do options, the reports came out wrong and you’re cooked. U can’t catch the entire move from top if u do options, because options u need to wait for confirmation, which is already late, while shorting allow you to front run any event or headline noise. So you either choose: \- Shorting Tsla directly at $384 before NFP VS - Buying expensive Puts when Tsla open at $360 with confirmation

Now this has some reasoning but GTA is mainly violent and "boy-ish" game, that girls hot enough to wear VS lingerie don't want to have common grounds with. Source : how many girls have you seen dressed as the blonde from the GTA V and she was a bombshell to say at least. Probably some e-girls will buy especially for cosplay reasons, but I don't see that as 44% growth stated in the DD. Otherwise it's a nice piece of mea... clothing, but I don't see the strong connection realise.

Which sounds nice but in the end you're just talking allt of hot air. What matters is *performance* and I dare you and all other financial advisors to *prove your performance*. Since you obviously can't beat the market that's impossible. But let's add taxes then, prov ehownmixhvthe average person can save by correct tax planning (hint, it's less then 5 hours of a financial advisors fee). Or how about this so called safety that causes a *massive underperformance* compared to any index? In the end everyone here and the averge person is *better off paying $10 000 a year to have a guy repond "No" whenever you call". That's your "should I" guy. When you see a stock tip on reddit or discord, call him. When a sleazy financial advisor (snake oil salesman) wants to talk about *anything kit performance before/after fees* you call him. Or when Trump gets extra stupid and invades Syria because why not, you call him I statistically (my ass) guarantee "Mr no" will over 30 years cost less and perform better then any financial advisor. Anyone who claims otherwise can start calculating taxes VS your fee and we'll see how luch you "save" people. Usually a fat engative

Zipski577

Sure, but only one party ever tried to make that a thing tho. Social justice hasn’t really been a focus in America over the last few years even on areas beyond body positivity but race and gender, etc. OZEMPIC was also approved in 2017 (9 years ago). So it’s not new at this point and even the “viral” social media trends and cultural shift began in 2020. Victoria Secret just started turning it around and churning over the last year. Victoria Secret’s CFO openly said on an earnings call in late 2019 that the company evolves their marketing based on the views of of the economy when they faced backlash over lack of in inclusivity. In Q1 2025 call after Trump inauguration the CEO said they planned to strategically make marketing sexier and “reestablish the brand's magic.” Also that their “cross functional team has was reading and reacting not only to sales but what they are seeing out in the world.” Also # of plus sized models in fashion shows declined over the last 2 years. Again, “Ozempic” virality and culture came to prominence 6 years ago. [Body positivity is not ‘over’](https://www.advocate.com/health/body-positivity-is-not-over) [**How The Trump Administration’s Conservative Policies And Messaging Are Reshaping Body Image Standards For American Women**](https://ifstudies.org/in-the-news/how-the-trump-administrations-conservative-policies-and-messaging-are-reshaping-body-image-standards-for-american-women) [“But since Trump’s reelection and the abrupt attempt at a return to pre-pandemic normalcy, Underwood’s approach to organizing has shifted.”](https://www.advocate.com/health/body-positivity-is-not-over) I focus on biopharma stocks primarily and have thoroughly researched obesity drug market and pipeline, and opportunity in terms of TAM, and there is still plenty of ‘meat on the bone’ so to speak in terms of overweight ppl that can’t access or afford them. But yea the rise in weight loss drugs is prob 90% of the shift in Victoria Secret success and shift away from body positivity campaigns and messaging as a whole, for sure. But lessened fear of being canceled/ getting negative media or political backlash has allowed for shifts to become normal. 6 years ago there was still complaints about size inclusivity in things like fashion shows getting media attention, now the media couldn’t be bothered to cover something like that. Also other apparel companies like Abercrombie also have been strong in recent earnings and I think they’ve really made positive strategic changes in recent years to adapt their brand to modern fashion trends. I’m not a woman but I imagine VS has made a lot of strategic product/ fashion/ trend decisions like that that have also greatly driven their success. So there’s a lot of components outside of body positivity shit that driving success. And VS aside, body positivity fading has mainly had to do with GLP1/ obesity drug rise. But Trump hasn’t exactly been known to promote inclusivity (“Rosie ODonnell is a “fat pig”), and when dems take over I’m sure inclusivity/ acceptance as a whole will make a return to some level of importance

TheMightyAmuseBouche

Zipski577

Yes it is worth more than Lulu. Clothing trends change and companies fade away but lingerie has stood the test of time for hundreds of years. Also, Lulu’s growth plan is to double their men’s apparel segment. VS on the other hand has capitalized on me too libs not being in office and body positivity campaigns being replaced with sex appeal, hot girls, tits, and ass being restored. Also obesity drugs have become more accessible and more effective, so that will continue to bring a whole new cohort of customers that previously were ruled out of TAM for obvious reasons

That said, Saudi Arabia has apparently agreed to being inspected by the International Atomic Energy Agency for compliance. The same deal Trump offered to the Iranians.

Also, fragrance is becoming more popular and Victoria's Secret is really stepping up its game in that arena. It's not a little selection anymore; it's a whole wing of the store. Bath & Body Works is probably losing customers to the VS.

Love how VS has a higher multiple than MU.

Pumped on light volume; they need retail to come up under it to firm up to sell. Look up the lipstick recession indicator. Yes, women who got skinny on glp1 are gonna buy themselves a couple $200 bras, but these aren't staple clothing that most women will be buying on an ongoing basis. So my guess is the VS trade is timed to perfection (quarterly results + glp1 story + stock pump), so yeah, time to fire up the WSB marketing machine.

Wives don't shop therel lol. Increase in VS is directly related to increase in single women of reproductive age.

VS has been offering plus sizes since 2019. They were just late to the inclusivity game and lost a ton of market share to inclusive competitors, like you mentioned. Not to mention the executive scandals. The new strategic direction under Hillary Super is working phenomenally. I’d reconsider your stance and take a look at what Mrs. Super has done and is continuing to do with the company. She expanded Savage X Fenty for Rihanna and was a main driving force behind Anthropologie before that.
