>> automate testing on historical data over long periods of time

I want to try this. Where can u get access to historical pricing data that includes pricing changes during the day, not just end of day prices?

I know a surgeon, he says that he thinks it’s the enforced rest post surgery that is what really does the healing in some cases such as for example Surgery for back pain.

Oh god. Even companies raising $40,000,000 can’t explain what they do:

“Vercel combines the best developer experience with an obsessive focus on end-user performance. Our platform enables frontend teams to do their best work.”

Nice, inspiring evocative words, but I care to find what the fuck Vercel IS, and this is not an answer.

Maybe if I reword the above it will become clear:

Vercel lets developers have a really great time concentrating super hard looking super close at how fast things are. The thing we do lets you do the best thing you do.

Ah, now it’s crystal clear what Vercel is.

I’ve always built the riskiest parts of a project first. It’s self evidently the way to build software isn’t it?

Ooohhh snarky.... !

There’s so much stuff on a Linux os.

Seems a bit of a stretch to say that providing a bunch of command line utilities gives operating system naming rights.

Why is GNU/Linux still a thing? What’s the GNU bit of Linux?

I care more about RAM than CPU.

Great book, very entertaining. But it felt more like fiction than fact to me. Just an opinion.

I’ve seen some phony YouTube Videos of people claiming to do this.

How does this compare on features with alternatives?

I think 12 year old kids need to be 12 year old kids and go to the same school and class with other 12 year old kids and be 12 years old.

There’s a lot to be said for being ordinary, and living an ordinary life, even if you’re super smart. Our society worships the idea of being some sort of extraordinary super person, even if it’s not good for them.

I’d love a new Mac mini but 16GB of RAM just doesn’t cut it any more.

If it was 32GB I’d buy.

But a fast CPU is only marginally useful when my machine grinds from memory swapping.

Seems unlikely to me that anyone is ever going to live on mars. The conditions are unbelievably harsh.

OS X is an incredible operating system, vastly more powerful than anything else at all ever.

There’s a million ways OSX is a work of art in OS design.

More than anything, it just works and multitasks smooth as a Swiss watch.

Simple, intuitive, consistent.

Yesterday I was using my iPhone and it said “share network password fro your Mac?” And it connected my to my local wireless. That’s beyond belief ease of use.

OSX knows what it is.... a powerful consistent desktop OS, 1000x better than anything from the 1980s or 1990s.

I was there in the 1980s and 1990s and it just wasn’t easy to use. Nothing was.

If you’re reading this thread, please leave a comment to say if you do or do not use PGP with email. I suspect few do.... it’s very very hard for ordinary users to grasp.

It’s weird that the zoom share price is stagnating at the moment.

No.

ARM has a huge problem with compatibility and secrecy.

Buy a random intel machine .... will it run Windows and Linux? YES.

Buy a random ARM device..,, will it run Linux? Maybe, probably not, even if it does, probably there’s problems and issues caused by the CPU vendor keeping aspects of its design secret.

ARM is a very very long way from replacing Intel.

It’s all about the software & documentation.

There’s lots of “competitors” to esp32, pretty much none of them except STM have the software for developers, which makes their offerings close to useless.

The only way to gain critical mass is relentless deep commitment to developer tools/libraries and documentation.

In many cases these competitors actually try to hide their documentation and keep secret how their chips work.

I’d be interested to hear if there’s other chip vendors with software/documentation as impressive as Espressif but I haven’t heard any, except as I said STM.

I heard someone say “Hired is going to wipe out all the recruiters when it come to your city”.

Yeah right.

“What a fucking stupid century. This is what our coups look like.”

What a great line.
