Yes, because you can split IDE tabs within the IDE still. 120 may be good too with increased resolutions but I like to keep my IDE on the same monitor.
Options are fairly priced. Meaning that they are priced according to the risk. Unless you have some very good reason to use them, they can lead to ruin. This is just another way to say that it is like playing in the casino.
On the other hand, if you have a lot of gains in the stock market, using options may be a small price to keep your piece of mind. Just understand that they give you no clear edge.
If used correctly, options are like buying an insurance policy. You pay a small amount up front to hedge against large future losses. Hence where the term "hedge fund" comes from.
Pretty much every finance site - marketwatch, wsj, cnbc, bloomberg, zerohedge, etc along with the peter schiffs/etc clickbait it.
For some reason, nytimes paywalled clickbait is constantly spammed here.
The inverted yield curve. There are thousands of articles about the inverted yield curve. The death cross. The black swan event. All just voodoo clickbait nonsense.
Also, I love how the nytimes say "wall st is concerned" as if they knew what wall st was thinking and most importantly, they think that wall st is one entity. A lot of players make up wall st.
If any of these people at these news companies knew what wall st was thinking, they wouldn't be working at news companies making pathetic union salaries. They'd worked in finance and retire before they were 25.
Simply put, when the big players want there to be a recession, there will be a recession. Markets are human created and controlled by humans. It isn't a natural entity following the laws of nature.
The invisible hand of the market doesn't mean that the hand controlling the market doesn't exist. It just means that us mere peasants aren't allowed to see it.
> I’m impressed by your post’s combination of cynicism
I'm impressed by your naivety. Where's the cynicism? I've worked on wall street/finance and I've read finance publications for decades. It's not cynicism, it's experience.
> conspiracy-theory-type reasoning
What's the conspiracy?

I'd advise you to give Logic 101 another try. Also look up ad hominem while at it.
Your Pavlovially conditioned denigration of quite believable assumption that some entities have huge amount of influence on the economy is even more impressive. Never tired of employing good old "it's a conspiracy theory" conversation stopper, do you?
You have to cut the young ones some slack on this. They're just modeling what they see from "those in the know", and the conventional wisdom narrative has been really heavy on conspiracy-shaming over the last few years. When they're older they'll see that there are other ways to discuss current events.
My browser has essentially become my OS (ignoring gaming) Hell, I could even accomplish 95% of my software dev job fully within a browser with online IDEs like Cloud9.
