A lot of the interactions seem to take longer vs me just taking my phone out and quickly doing what I need to do. Its compelling given this is a v1 of the product so it will only get better from here but not completely sold on it just yet.

For the top groups, Spam is extremely profitable.

A lot of them were commissioned to spam knockoff viagra pills, or other pharmaceuticals and they take a % of all conversions. Hundreds of millions in total/yearly.

Other spam is outright scams as well or efforts by cybercrime groups to recruite money mules etc.

So I suppose it depends what type of spam you're referring to but as an whole in cybercrime its one of the oldest and most profitable.

Hey, this is more or less being done. The best bots/groups are bringing in comparable salary if not more than industry standard in their respective fields. If anyone is interested in developing Bots/Platform to secure limited items em masse, please shoot me an email at: [email protected]

I have direct connects with some of the biggest sneaker storefronts, and looking for developers.

Yes, I agree in terms of difficulty. Are you in this space by any chance?

Perhaps look into exploit development/reverse engineering if you want the most difficult 1% top tier job in this field.

Essentially there was a hedge fund who was heavily short in GameStop stock to the tunes of many millions. Once the subreddit community of WallStreetBets started applying buy pressure it made the shorts either add more/cover; or have to sell and when they do it adds buy pressure to the book. Led to a big gamma squeeze and this fund got caught off guard with poor risk management and the stock surged so much letting the small joe win for once in a game of smoke screen tactics by larger funds

At this point I would wait for the new Apple M1s slated to come out in a few months. Apparently the current M1s have impressed many all around and probably worth the wait to at least see final specs and not have buyers remorse

Bitcoin cash? You sound clownish. Wake up and stop drinking the kool-aid buddy. Nobody goes near that scam fest, sorry.

Optimization via dev familiarity.

In terms of raw power it should be able to handle most tasks and more efficiently as well; however in terms of “development” it has a few drawbacks with the whole virtualization aspect. So depends on what kinda dev you doing I guess

Arm based Chromebook with a worse kernel, lack of 32gb is a no go. Trying to squeeze some sales right into the end of the year seems like.
