@John O - nice
I didn't know anything about that race so I didn't touch it.
I had Dems <= 230 seats in house, and Rs 53-55 in senate
How much did you score in 2016
@ophiuchus 3k, the odds being offered back then were way longer than they should have been
People often bet on what they want to happen instead of what will happen. The odds are seldom correct
@John O - I was telling a friend about this, if you're going to bet based on emotion it would make more sense on things you don't want to happen, so in case they do happen then at least you get some money out of it. That idealism set aside, yes a lot of bets are often biased towards democrats there, although I've noticed a recent cohort of magapedes has shown up so nowadays I don't know what to think.
That's what's great about betting
As long as you bet based on what will realistically happen, you can take a lot of money away from people who bet based on what they want to happen
They probably skew the odds a lot
i've really only lost money on predictit... usually the rules are broken and i don't get the payout due to disqualification. i tend to buy sub 10c rolls though, so maybe one will pay off eventually š
@ophiuchus VIX went down but VXX went up. Thoughts?
VXX is daily futures for VIX, so not the same
@John O - 855-MAKE-10K got it
seems legit
lol I guess they paid a lot for the vanity number
But you better not have any homes of a raise, or they'll have to get a new number
I just got off the phone with them. I bought their Get Started in Sales package. Will report back with results
NVDA 17% down on earnings report
@ThisIsChris is it partially due to their top of the line model catching on fire and the resulting recall?
@Tanner - SC haha not that I heard of, more likely because they missed revenue expectations by 60 million and had been priced at a high multiple
@ThisIsChris Excess inventory from overproduction when crypto demand died.
> Nvidia announced its third quarter financial results, but a worrying glut of graphics cards in the channel, which Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang chalked up to a "Crypto hangover," impacted overall earnings and guidance. The news sent the company's stock plummeting 18% in after-hours trading. Nvidia expects the oversupply to require "one to two" quarters to recede.

Gasoline is cheap!
I have a tax question.
Iām driving quite a bit for IE purposes, and I intend to mark so on my taxes. Will I need to provide documentation like odometer readings? How does all of that work?
Is IE your employer?
I found this from TurboTax
Yes
You can deduct the miles driven in a personal car for work.
The more documentation you have the better it is at tax time. Here is the IRS' own words.
okay someone explain this to me
to rent a house or get a mortgage you need proof of income
but once you move, you won't have that income anymore
so how do you get prove of income to move somewhere far away?
Maybe a job offer letter will do?
