I'm insulted, but I won't drag this out.

Pretty myopic viewpoint. You wasted an afternoon figuring out graph-traversal & loop detection from first principles -- using and stretching your mental abilities -- rather than being spoonfed it? That's absurd. Utterly absurd.

What's your track record. What is your current scope of work for Claude Code? This conversation is useless without knowing the author's skillset and use-case.

You missed the point to hop on your soapbox. Yes immigrants are used as a scapegoat. No immigration is not a completely faultless thing that can be allowed willy nilly and have zero negative consequences.

I hate to write out these words, but you're strawmanning. The point is caffeine etc. corrupt the mind and cause a person's mental faculties to run in a way they were not initially designed to. The point is not that these drugs are

I speak only from a very high-level POV. From a lower-level/in the "trees" -- yes, I don't disagree whatsoever with your characterization that a single company can achieve that. I know of many many many products I use (t

Buddy, the entire world is being hollowed out by globalism and a financial race to the bottom vis-a-vis labor costs. Your entire way of life is predicated upon no one invading the country, global supply chains remaining intact and usable, a

It's old-world ragebait. Falling for it is lowly -- like you don't know the game.

Intuition. The neurons fire and piece together the dots. I can write quite well if I'm primed for it (big if). Speaking as well; but I have to be in the "headspace" for it. It's like sports. You are in the "zone.&qu

The only one significant is Khosla of Sun. The rest are... rehashes of Western companies without a shred of innovation or doing anything novel.

The market is as competitive, the pay much worse, and the conditions -- barring the good grace of ability to getting into a union -- much worse!

Careers are not looking good long-term. Add in the exorbitant cost of uni in the US and dwindling entry level opportunities-- it's hard to see how going through the gauntlet of building a business (including learning valuable, tangible

Always baffled me how little commercial sense HNers had when I was growing up and reading this forum. It's as if no one taught them -- or they just don't have the sense for it? -- that a startup is just a vehicle to make money. Th

Apologies for the late reply! I'm sorry, I won't be able to respond.

I'm sorry, but I don't hold them in high regard as artists. They're part of the "western/southern frontier" crowd that encapsulated the zeitgeists of their environments, rather than create something that transc

Your creativity is a composition of all the novel stimuli you experience. Going out into the sticks, while calming and healing for the soul, is artistic suicide.

I read through the first "lecture" yesterday. I'll devote some time for (hopefully) the rest today. Thank you!

I only slightly understand, I'm sorry; I'm not educated enough to understand much of this. Did you take stats at MIT? I'm going to through their online material, because I very much am very confused.

A representative sample then? Please tell me where I went wrong -- I mean this sincerely.

The probability distribution is subjective for both parts -- because it, once again, depends on the observer observing the events in order to build a probability distribution. E.g. your random number generator generates 1, 5, 7, 8, 3 when

You are not an UHNW individual/institutional investor, so no "fund managers" of any note are going to waste their time on this wager. "Beating an index" is really easy. Up to $10MM you can choose most any financial
