How is this a tangent, or flamebait? I'm just pointing out that he's literally whining about a job I'd love to have and not seeing how lucky he is.
So he gets to take other people's money, invest it and take a cut without actually, like, having to do any actual work, but he's getting ignored at parties? Damn it, where the hell do I sign up?
There are some artists like that, sure, but plenty? I doubt it...
Then you were motivated by curiosity, which is great, but what if you weren't curious about the perfect espresso and knew that nobody would drink it. In this case, why make an espresso? You'd probably prefer to spend…
I find that internal motivation is mostly a myth, that is, the part where people expect to just have infinite drive out of nowhere. The cooking analogy is good but here's an IMO better one - would you make a movie if…
I'm very curious to know this objective reality and how to discover it.
I don't see you complaining about, for example, brokerages, dealers and exchanges providing liquidity by fulfilling your orders even though the market won't at a given point in time. This can prevent a security from…
You don't know it to be worthless. Hertz proved that, because their stock went up (hence not worthless).
Less-than-ethical according to who? If you're buying indices then you have explicitly given up control of a portion of your portfolio to them, and they can lose money as well as gain. Sounds to me like you're just…
Can't see why they shouldn't be allowed to raise funds by selling stock. People are free to buy or not to buy, at their discretion. Govt/courts shouldn't be picking winners and they shouldn't be picking losers either.
"Bad" and "good" are meaningless judgements in this context. You're about to graduate, so you wouldn't be expected to have any real experience, but you do have experience building and running an actual product. Seems to…
At this rate, looks like I'm about to be pursuing a Replica of Science degree...
Hard to separate "true nature" from the way I view things, so I can't really tell. Another person might view things differently and write a completely different story. Do you think people would read this though? Maybe…
Not sure I consider "huh" to be an actual word. If so, I'm pretty sure blowing raspberry also exists in all human languages, and some non-human.
It sure does, but even if you choose not to take advantage of container tech, it's still a very easy way to deploy stuff on a single machine. Not sure why the downvotes.
For all its flaws, Docker does solve a lot of the pain the author mentions. Deploying postgres, for example, with a config file and keeping it running is really very easy with Docker Compose. Not affiliated with Docker…
I agree, but that's still a form of estimation though, you're just estimating that you'd be able to deliver on your list of features in the time you have. You could be wrong, and then end up with less features, or be…
TFA uses a lot of words to say very little. I don't care if your estimate is drawn from the hip or projected using a state of the art Monte Carlo or machine learning model. It's still an estimate. Still, any number of…
Looks very cool, thanks
Literally all of these ideas are ones I've had for years in the education space. I'm glad someone is actually doing them.
Maybe not at the dorm room phase but pretty early on after that
That's right. We need to start thinking decentralized. Instead of using DNS to find a server and HTTP to get the content from it, we should switch to a decentralized lookup of the data itself, sourced from wherever the…
So much drama. If a manager in your org can fire good-standing employees on a whim without scrutiny from the rest of the org, quit now. In any other org, go ahead and joke with your buddies, people need the icebreakers.…
I imagine a future where a project like wikipedia is replicated endlessly by willing users on an IPFS-like network, where people can donate CPU, storage and bandwidth instead of money to pay for a centralized server,…
