I understand AWS is the bread and butter of Amazon. Their infrastructure to run a book store as consumer goods was a good move.

With that in mind.

AWS is over engineered. It took me 12 mins to learn how to turn on an instance 4 years ago.

When I was learning,by randomly clicking, I apparently open up machines in 6 different locations. Got a bill for computers I didn’t know where on, which I haven’t ssh into.

I called the service and they pointed out all the instances; the customer service representative knew this was a common issue for beginners. My money was refunded.

Nowadays, they have global views.

AWS is extremely complicated just so you can SSH into it. Come on. Not cool.

It official. Years of programming and on the internet has condition me. I’m good at telling the difference.

This is the saddest moment of my life. I actually can tell the difference between the two images. God Please save me from this miserable existence.

Coding Curves 4 years ago

The author wasn’t kidding. This is literally about coding curves. I guess a simple x^2 and the derivative of Sum isn’t enough in this day and age of programming.

My two ADHD comments gave me -9 points. Lol.

Yes. It’s my opinion. I wish I had a Scientific prove on it. But logically. It makes sense.

You have been fingerprinted. Look into digital fingerprint. Google and Reddit work together to guarantee you are censored.

Nowadays. The comments on Reddit are GPT3. No real users comment anymore. Next year. This will be an issue. Now, it’s just a experiment Reddit is running before IPO.

I’m all in support for having everything in one text editor for embedded devices. Python is a human language; it’s not going to teach kids anything, anyone can code in python overnight. Python has taught kids to code in the less efficient ways possible.

But, arduino and jeroo.org should really make C language more inviting to children.

Without jeroo and arduino, I wouldn’t be familiar with C language.

Robinhood stock price falling when my bot is buying more shares. I will trust the A.i I guess.

Robinhood is still screwing over users on market orders.

I mirror trades between Alpaca and Robin Hood. When my bot executes trades on alpaca. 90% of the time it’s exactly what is quoted at that time. Example: If my account value is $30,000. I sell all at market. I get $30,000(-$0.01 fee for selling) so I get 29,999.99

The same quote executed on Robinhood. I lose %0.21 or %0.51 on my account value. Example: If my account value is $30,000. I sell all at market. I get $29,937.

You may say. Bruh. Just use limit order. Limit orders sometimes don’t get filled. On alpaca, it gets filled. Robinhood market orders takes away your gains.

You may think I’m joking. But I’m not. Last year. I got an email from RobinHood addressing it and crediting my account. This year. It’s worst.

Last year email.

Welcome to the realization we all have known since 2013.

Don’t waste your time and money. Don’t use the site if you don’t have to. A lot of people have stop using it. Sadly, google is redirecting traffic back to it.

Majority of the content isn’t the front page of the internet anymore. 8 years ago. Reddit was great.

Lastly. If you wanna win a lawsuit; Sue Reddit for using blockchain technology to fingerprint users devices and using their devices to pay the gas. Sue Reddit for IP tracking across network and fingerprinting you.

All of this is done without the end-user explicit knowledge. Btw. I’m sure you are aware of digital fingerprint. Reddit has implemented it and controlling the narrative. The mods of those subreddit and just drones.

I gave up working hard when I turned 24 years and my friend passed away due to an alcohol battle.

Since then, I realize working long hours; countless hours wasted at night solving and fixing issues isn’t worth the time on earth.

Working hard and looking like a 40 year old man when I was 24 years old. I started to see gray hair show.( I’m not exaggerating, I looked like shit) 3 years ago, gray hair was showing.

Not worth it being called “ the main man”

Not worth it.

I once reversed engineered Bloomberg paid api in iOS to get articles in terminal.

2 months later. The api started miss matching article dates, breaking the articles in different segments; making it difficult to put together.

After fixing my code.

1 week later.

CAPTCHA. So I use proxy to read it.

Lastly. My IP is now CAPTCHA on my phone and laptop.

My point is Bloomberg is a crap company with a lot of gatekeeping to information.

So. Before you take on mental health issues. Over something so trivial as writing a compiler and instruction sets.

Get a Costco‘s membership.

1. Eat healthy

2. Go outside

3. Don’t go around trains.

4. Call a family member.

5. Go walk around Costco’s and get the samples of items.

6. Go to the YMCA and volunteer sometime.

Good luck.

It will definitely get the manufactures attention.

Since I haven’t had a budget above $200,000 before; from experience handling and dealing with suppliers in the food industry using little budget.

1. Ecolab 2. Sysco 3. Tyson 4. Chick-fil-A

It is better to hire someone who has connections and can negotiate for your company. I would rather hire someone with connections and give them that 1 million as a budget.

From experience, side deals are better than retail prices.

Thanks. I code in python and Haskell 98% of the time. So I don’t know how math works. I guess it’s time to learn math, sadly my highest math is discrete mathematics. I have no idea what the hell I was doing. It’s all gibberish for a grade.

I’m Glad every equation i type into python or Haskell. I just get an answer.

>> 2*2

... 4

I guess all these years has been leading me to read a math book. You better have some pretty pictures and cartoons like Haskell and python has for beginners.

Edit:

It’s just another textbook if you google version 3. Don’t waste your time. There are no simple straightforward explanations. This is just another academia person flexing.

I don’t think it’s a self driving company. More like an “advance safety company” that utilizes the car already on board sensors.

Regardless, it’s an awesome idea for a company.

Honestly, if you don’t have million dollar contract with companies like Nvidia, Samsung, Qualcomm. It is a waste of time.

Sadly, like every project made by small teams. We all have to use 3rd party provides.

You are correct. It’s been almost 2 years since the lockdown. During that time, I downloaded apps like crazy. Maybe 500 apps.

They all offered me a free trial, I took it.

Mistakes where made, due to apple auto renewal, my card was charged ~$1,000 within that month. Luck for me. Chase bank detected all as fraud and blocked the card. I disputed the $160.11 for the apps that “force billed” and won the case.

I have downloaded close to 1TB worth of data on my iPhone. To delete all these apps will take hours. To cancel the subscription isn’t easy. Apple designed it in a way, for each app you download. You have to manually go into settings and cancel it.

Imagine downloading 500 apps in one month. No way I’m i manually disabling auto renewal.

Thanks to PayPal, I created an account that literally has zero dollars that apps can auto renewal and fail.

I did the math. Total cost of all the apps subscription since 2019-2022 on my device.

$57,060.01.

Glad PayPal is blocking these automated renewal. Because I’m not going to manually cancel ~500 apps.
