dwarfofyore.bsky.social @dwarfofyore.bsky.social · 02/10/2026What's weird with these massive IPOs is that the price they're trying to get is big enough to instantly become one of the stocks at the top of the index funds, which means everybody who followed the standard advice is going to be buying into them by default 1220
dwarfofyore.bsky.social @dwarfofyore.bsky.social · 02/10/2026You do, but most people don't actually want to manage their investments in detail, so it's common to put it in either a managed fund or an index fund. In the latter case, it's automatically distributed across a set of stocks, usually the ones with the largest total value (market cap) 2240

dwarfofyore.bsky.social @dwarfofyore.bsky.social · 28/08/2026As somebody who mostly listened to music as downloaded albums, I wish there was a good discovery mechanism not tied to streaming services... I'll listen to live session and stuff on youtube but their discovery/mix is 95% things I've already listened to *on youtube* and therefore useless 110

dwarfofyore.bsky.social @dwarfofyore.bsky.social · 18/08/2026I've seen a lot of people doing "okay, so this is how preindustrial logistics works" and a few people doing "ok, so here's how I think D&D magic would alter society" but I don't think I've seen anybody who actually gets the former trying to work out the latter in detail 020
