Re:I chose the ThinkPad Z13 Gen1 as my Linux laptop

Since moving our dev environment onto remove VMs, laptop choice has become much easier. Battery isn't drained as much by tests/VMs/containers, RAM isn't as much of a concern, mac ARM vs x86 isn't an issue anymore.

It seems like an ethical move if you agree with Peter Thiel's model of stagnant US. Since we don't grow anymore, the only way for advancement is for others to step aside. We're not creating new spots from expansion like in the 50s. So taking up high earning spots to accumulate above self sustaining amount is taking jobs from others that haven't reached their FIRE number (which could be seen as unethical).
This doesn't apply to new/growing fields like tech.

He bought 50k of Out of The Money PUTs expiring next day. So he bet AAPL would go down. When market opened AAPL went up and his 50k options would expire worthless at the end of day.
To get the leveraged money he bought stock and sold CALLs against it. RH has a bug where they give you credit for the premium collected instead of reducing buying power.
