Re:AI coding made me faster, but I can't code to music anymore

It's a change in mindset. AI is like having your own junior developer. If you've never had direct reports before where you have to give them detailed instruction and validate their code then you're right, it might end up more exhausting than just doing the work yourself.

How do you define "tech stuff" and why do you want to keep children away from that?

Right?! Who's buying? Big businesses or regular retail? Or are they limiting supply to keep prices high?
Ask HN: What orgs could benefit from a free SQL card game?
Hi HN, I developed a physical SQL card game (rowsandtables.com) and have ~70 copies I'd like to gift to some organization.Any recommendations? Ideally just one or a handful of orgs to save on shipping.

Re:Ask HN: The book that did it for you in math and/or CS?
on Sunday February 27, 2022 @01:07AM (#30485836)
Introduction to Algorithms - Cormen et al.
- Kicked off learning about Big O Notation through this. The concepts completely changed the way I looked at code, especially being mostly self taught beforehand.
Numerical Analysis - Sauer
- Learned about Newton's Method from this book which blew my mind at the time and got me hooked.
Paul's Notes - https://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/classes/de/de.aspx

Very cool! I'd recommend simplifying it. I created a card game for SQL and kids were lost when there was too much work involved until I simplified it - https://rowsandtables.com

I made it to teach some kids, including my own. I've got it up for sale with $0 marketing budget. If it sells then that's great, if not then that's okay too.

I have many, but also some that had some level of success - https://rinum.com
My lessons:
1) Keep your day job, most projects fail
2) Fail fast, 20% effort gets you 80% of the project and that's when you ship it to see if it works, doesn't have to be perfect
3) Don't hang on to failures, move on

Thanks for checking it out and especially for your feedback! I definitely agree. I have some easy ideas to tackle at least some of these concerns (e.g. normalize volumes, block posts beyond a volume threshold, implement a CAPTCHA to post, etc.).

Biggest barrier is not enough sales or interest from others for my ideas. I've got my products out there, but I don't earn enough from them to afford working on them full time.

CPI includes many loss leaders, e.g. milk and bananas. So is it really fair to benchmark inflation off of the retail prices of those items if the retailer is losing increasingly more money on them while making up for it on other inflated/shrinkflated goods?

It's a social game. Being able to say that you own a meme (a "rare pepe" for example) can win you some popularity. I think popularity translates to influence and that influence has value. The market is trying to figure out what that value is.
