>Snapchat plans to roll out new IPO stock worth $22.5 Billion
http://www.politicaloutsource.com/2017/02/snapchat-to-roll-out-its-own-ipo-stock.html
Well /g/, is this going to be a bust or the biggest thing since Google? Shares start at $14 to $16, will you be investing? Or is this just a pathetic attempt by SNAP Inc.?
Personally, I think there's potential.
I think it's got potential, but the problem is that a lot of people are going to buy into the IPO not knowing the many go-to-market issues it has then then it'll pop. Might buy it during the rebound since it would be a decent short-format marketing platform.
It's going up to 100$ in no time.

Wait a couple months to buy
Hey /biz/, was thinking about training a neural net to make long term investments. What are your thoughts? Good idea/bad idea/waste of time? I figured at the very least it might make a good project to teach myself to work with machine learning frameworks. Also anyone know any good neuromorohic computing companies to invest in?
Slightly related: any quants on this board? Do you like it? Do you really need a PhD?

>Good idea/bad idea/waste of time?
it's not just a bad idea but also a huge waste of time and money.
One does not simply train a neural net to predict stock prices...
It's a very difficult problem, but I agree that it would make a good project to study natural language processing, data analysis and statistics.
What experience do you have with ML?
I'd be interested in collaborating on something if you have a bit of experience - I know a bit about state of the art computer vision and reinforcement learning, but I'm only just getting started with NLP.

Site for Americucks. Ignition keeps jewing me. Send help
Back in 2010 a friend of mine and myself wanted to create a bot for poker. I think it was poker stars. We reversed the client a bit and had some basic functions done. This was when poker shows on g4 and stuff were big. Then sites started to get in trouble with the FED.

How does getting laid affect your business and the skills therein?
I understand in business situations some associates want to understand your ability to get laid and your sexual preferences; they tend to ask these questions in a sly or surreptitious way to avoid offending you.
I've had people try to get me to open up about sex, but I haven't had sex in a long time.
I typically ignore the question and move onto something else.
I feel like this is hurting me.
What do you guys think?
This has nothing to do with business
Fuck off back to /b/ or /r9k/

They just want to know if you're a fucking autistic virgin, which you are.
I'm in college and I have a bit of money saved up and most of my expenses paid for until summer/fall
If I bought a basic vending machine for like $300, (used) how much could I expect to make?
I live in a biggish city so I'd have some options in who I approach, but it'd likely be a local business, laundromats, barbers, etc.
And probably snacks or other items rather than drinks
is it stupid to just buy one?
Not OP but bumping this, also interested.
>>1804815
>how much could I expect to make?
Its entirely dependent on how cheap you get you products for, and where you actually put this vending machine. Even if you got all of your shit for free, you won't make shit if no one is around to use it. Vending machines/ATMs need to be in REALLY high foot traffic areas.

Just bought some Modafinil. What can I expect?
Expect your urine to smell strongly and quite peculiar.

nothing much it's weaker drug than coffee on the other hand coffee spikes in an hour and quickly halves and that stuff is more even and long lasting.
It makes whatever you're doing much easier to continue and stay doing. It's also a decent mood enhancer with no real hangover. It gives some people headaches, but I always felt fine after taking it. Stack it with a Choline supplement, if you notice headaches.
So if you have solid self-control it will definitely help you complete any task you are managing, but if your self-control is shit you'll probably end up playing video games or watching YT vids for a long time. It enhances the skills you already possess, essentially.
I live in Canada where the housing prices are crazy (GTA). I'm at the point in my life where I make 70k/year and looking to save up to buy property (23 years old).
I have no inheritance money but I want to save up to buy a house or a condo. I'm wondering your opinions on what to do in this housing market where you need like 100k down payment to just buy a house.
Is a condo worth it (primarily pre-construction)? or should I wait for the housing market crash to happen?
>>1803810
What do you do for a living?
>>1803810
Housing market crash in the GTA is a meme. Condos are only a good investment in Toronto, they don't really appreciate outside of downtown.
Fellow GTA-anon here.
Although I'm not in the position to be buying property in basically any market, I do worry about this sometimes myself. I mean, when thinking about the longer term picture.
On the one hand, prices in the GTA are always going up, so it's like "well if they're going to keep going up, better buy now if you're going to buy ever." But on the other hand it's like, "but CAN this keep going on forever? What if there's a crash and I end up with a mortgage on a condo that's now worth 1/2 what I paid??"
The other thing is, there's so much foreign money in GTA real estate that it throws off the value calculations that let you decide if a real estate market is overheated. Normally, you determine the value of a real estate market by comparing income to rent. The idea is that if rent is too high compared to income, prices will collapse eventually because people will start moving back in with their parents or just leaving the area. The problem with the GTA is that this logic doesn't work, because a lot of what's driving the prices up is just foreign speculators throwing money into condo units as some kind glorified bank account; I've heard they only break even on the rent money they're bringing in, they're content to just do that because it's more stable than having money in their home country where it can be confiscated by gov't.
It's all so stressful and it makes me think, "is it really viable to stay here long term?" But I'm just so used to all the shit there is to do here; I went back to my parents' shit town this past Christmas and the lack of 'everything everywhere 24 hours a day' made me want to kill myself.

Which American cities do you think are going the have the best future and develop into something great? Austin is growing incredibly fast and I think that Texas as a whole is going to end up being the next California. Denver is also seeing a lot of development. How long-term are the gains seen from the energy/oil boom in the Dakotas?
>>1804872
houston is bretty gud
>>1804872
If it's not on a coast and its not Utah or Colorado, don't even bother.
>>1804872
Raleigh, NC has been on the rise since the end of last century. I don't see any reason why it should stop growing now. Lots of large/growing tech companies, and some pretty business-friendly attitudes and policies.
