Leperflesh posted:Today I am thinking about how much of a giant pain in the rear end it is to find and hire a contractor for home renovations and repairs, especially for small jobs, who is actually good and charges a reasonable fee and shows up to do the job and actually finishes the job. Feels like some silicon valley UBER/Airbnb/Grindr disrupter type co could apply the principles of cloud, crowdfunding, gacha games, online dating, and blockchain to just explode this stupid industry wide open and/or violate lots of local laws and waste billions in VC money. Maybe both. This post made me google TaskRabbit because I knew it existed and was somewhat along these lines, and also I wondered what it's status was (private, public, etc). Turns out IKEA acquired the company in 2017. Technically they match "freelance labor" for "everyday tasks, including furniture assembly...handyman work", so it's not quite to the level of permitted home renovations/repairs/remodels which is of course what you're talking about. I think you are right that at some point this app will be tried and it will definitely violate a bunch of local laws. But maybe every VC will think "do I want to gently caress with building permits and inspections", and while the answer should be no, get ready for BLDR™.

My sister was doing a lot of gig work, driving for Lyft and doing Taskrabbit stuff, and a couple years ago apparently it absolutely went to poo poo for the workers. I didn't get details. But yeah that was/is for like, handyman stuff, couriers, personal shoppers, small time stuff?

At some point goons in this thread controlled something absurd like $200k+ worth of NDRA stock. Of course it's plunged 75% since then. We are all waiting for the day the FDA approves their ultrasound device, which should trigger a spike... or maybe it will never be approved or they'll run out of money first and die. Well, when I say "we all" I mean the bagholders, I'm sure a fair number of goons cut their losses a while ago.

Dropped out when it fell below 1.9. Did the same thing with ITRM a few months later but was unfortunately holding a few hundred shares when FDA gave them notice of disapproval and it collapsed.

i bought some at 2.2, sold at 2.4, and now i have 12,170 shares purchased @ $0.23 currently worth $0.35. I could sell for a profit, but I really hope for that good news to get a big win on it

Yeah I'm HODL on $GOON too. It's too late to jump ship and take any appreciable amount from it (I wasn't in deep regardless), so I'm just waiting to see if it does anything at this point. If by the deadline for claiming a loss next tax season it's still flopping, I may exit then and write off a couple hundred on my taxes.

My $GOON cost basis is now $1.13 because I bought more the whole way down from $2.00 I'm either gonna lose it all or buy a jetski.

I'm looking for an API for real-time stock data, preferably one that doesn't cost $$$ a month. I've mastered intro-level ML, you see. It's time to make billions. The info I've found so far is out of date (rip Yahoo Finance), contradictory, or ad-like.

Robinhood supposedly has an API and there's a couple python libraries. You'll need an account, not sure if there's any kind of minimum account balance needed to use it, I don't think so Google sheets might have ticker price support

Looks like NDRA is reporting after close today, and no reason to believe that there will be anything except a huge sucking sound. Maybe announce selling more shares to raise capital to keep extending the runway for the mouse-sous-vide technology. Or an inverse split to stay listed.

I have 1075 shares of NDRA at an average cost basis of $1.5692. So I'm down $1300.76 and could recover $386 of cash if I sold it all right now. I'm a bagholder until/unless I want to write down the loss or it comes up enough to be worth recovering the cash for some other purpose. I've seriously considered putting another thousand into it while it's in the pennies range, just to get my cost basis way down: but I've always argued NDRA is a very very risky position and I don't feel comfortable tying up over $2k of investment into it. There's probably better options for my next purchase.

Yeah, I'm up almost $1400 on my $2800 investment. I think i'm gonna sell before close here in a bit and rebuy after the earnings call makes a sad trombone sound. We don't have any reason to expect a miraculous pop or announcement, do we?

NDRA is likely much more of a long game stock than the hype last year tried to make it out to be. I don’t mind bag holding it for now as I don’t have any reason to sell (not in profit). I guess either it tanks and goes bankrupt, or it’ll get far enough to get absorbed into some corporation (hopefully).

Looks like they have 3 quarters of runway and went to 2 trade shows. Getting a little grim. They did get quite a few new patents (cloud connected medical devices?). I dunno how that is going to play out (shift to patent trolling?).

Their runway (based on current cash and cashflow, ~3 quarters) can presumably be extended since they have pre-authorized additional dilution. Their financial report states that they are performing clinical studies to support the de novo application, which they plan to file Q3 which is interesting in that I think most of us believed they had already re-filed under de novo with the FDA. This means no announcement of approval was ever possible nor will it be until some time after that Q3 submission. quote:-Installed TAEUS system at a fourth clinical evaluation site, in the U.S. Year-to-date, more than 50 TAEUS scans have been performed on study participants, a 25% increase from May 2022, and ENDRA remains on track for at least 200 patients to be scanned by year end. These clinical evaluation sites are being used to generate data to support the commercialization of the TAEUS system, and a subset of the data will be used to support ENDRA's submission of its De Novo request. The patents probably improve the technology moat should their devices actually start selling commercially, and make the company more valuable for a potential acquisition. e. Based on the clarity that de novo application still hasn't even been made, I expect the stock to decline again for the next quarter. Why hold when you can probably sell, wait a couple months, and pick up your position about where you left it?
