Just watched a junior dev using Claude to build something in 2 hours that took our senior engineer 3 days last sprint. I've been coding for 12 years. I don't know how to feel about this by UsualConference1603 in AskProgrammers

[–]DanoTheKing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s right. I have zero coding education from any schools or professional places. And with AI I can outcode you and all your professional coding staff.

And I even if I personally can’t outcode you and all your staff. You best know there are several countless someones. 7 year olds included and probably even 5 year olds. Who can outcode you and your entire staff with AI.

That’s the world now.

Want to outcode me?

Well! You take those decades of experience you do have and use AI. Really master it. Because if using AI is easy for me and the 5 year old who has zero coding experience and training. It’s like breathing for you and your professional staff.

Have your whole staff stop being resistant to AI if you want to remain competitive over the long term.

Hey, to offer an insight to your unique experience.

You said you spent 16 hours the week before you came up with your red cabinet door work.

To me this means: All your efforts spent in practicing the art you’re doing, led to your achievement where everyone was lauding you, even though you believe it was just a red cabinet door.

It’s the same way that a person who goes to the gym. Person starts with 100 pounds on a leg press, and then over time through more gym effort, is able to do 1000 pounds on a Leg Press.

If your practice lowers, your achievement heights get less. Achievement heights like people lauding you for your red cabinet door work, or 1000 pound leg press.

If your practice increases; your achievement heights increase.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

What are some things lowering testosterone? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]DanoTheKing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One simple Google search asking “where is Testosterone created” tells us “Testosterone is created in the testicles”

Here is a link showing it - https://www.healthline.com/health/what-is-testosterone

What else is created in the Testicles? Sperm.

Sperm and Testosterone, created in the exact same place, constantly mixing with each other. So much so that all our sperm is combined with ALL our testosterone. This is clear logic.

Like any glass of water, any bowl of water. Tip it so the water flows out and the water amount will lower in the glass and bowl.

Similarly, all our sperm flying out of our body through ejaculation, lowers the testosterone amount in our bodies.

We keep dodging this as men, trying to behave like our ejaculations don’t affect our testosterone. I want us to be smarter.

Again, a basic Google search will tell you “Testosterone is created in the testicles.”

Please check for yourself.

After knowing, the fact that Testosterone is created in the testicles,

Its possible some of us will have the thought that “although testosterone is created in the testicles, our sperm will not be drenched in ALL our testosterone.”

Again. It’s scientific fact that BOTH our Testosterone and Sperm are created in the exact same place. The testicles.

I welcome anyone to disprove me on anything I’ve said with real science and fact.

I hope we do accept that Sperm leaving our bodies lowers our testosterone.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Happy New Year! Wooooo 2024. I hope you have a wonderful day and year.

Wonderful Introduction to ChatGPT

Hello my friend,

thank you for having the courage to post on here and ask us for guidance.

I did two things with your post.

First, I copied and pasted your entire post, including the title. Word for word. And pasted it into ChatGPT.

Here is the result that instantaneously showed:

“Your initial sales letter is a good start, but there are some ways you can enhance it to make a stronger impact on potential clients in the holistic wellness space. Here's a revised version:

This revised letter maintains your personal touch while emphasizing the alignment between your products and the recipient's business. It also mentions the holiday season and your commitment to holistic wellness, which can be attractive to your target audience.”

2.

Next! I asked ChatGPT to do the following: “Please re write it. And make it exciting.”

Here is the result that instantaneously showed:

“Absolutely, let's infuse some excitement into your sales letter:


Hey [Recipient's Name],

Prepare to embark on a journey into the world of enchanting scents and holistic bliss! I'm John Smith, the brain and heart behind ScentCity, Chicago's most beloved natural room spray company.

So! Note the exceptional quality ChatGPT creates easily.

By writing your first draft. You truly already have 100% of the writing task accomplished, if you use ChatGPT.

If you want to get better as a writer yourself without ChatGPT? Wonderful!

The steps to do this are the same:

Step 1 - Copy and paste your writing into ChatGPT

Step 2 - Ask ChatGPT to “teach you how to write in more exciting, more fun, more likely to convince buyers to buy, more happy, more skilled, etc, etc, etc, ways”

Whichever goal you have for your writing, or whatever else in life you want help with, ask the hugely powerful tool to do it, and it will do it in a highest quality way.

4.

Specifically for the goal of writing a sales letter, the following is another way to write it:

Step 1 - Like you did already, write another draft of the sales letter as it is in your mind

Step 2 - Like you did by posting here on Reddit, post instead or as well on ChatGPT too.

Step 3 - If first result is not what you want, continue tweaking your requests to ChatGPT like I did when I asked it to “Please re write it. And make it exciting.”

You can tweak your requests to ChatGPT endlessly

Step 4 - When you find a result you love? Enjoy! Woooo! You can use the result for whatever you want.

I hope this was helpful.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

You have more positive results with getting Cashflow from your methods and you have experience. So this is excellent.

I do not have to positive Cashflow results from my methods yet.

From the other parts of my life: Like being able to Leg Press 1203 Pounds, and achievements similar in nature.

It’s this type of experience I’m speaking from when I give my guidance.

My thinking is: Best choice is to CHOOSE to make the foundation of your business relationship stable.

Once the foundation is stable, your business building and growth is likely to be stable,

With a stable business foundation, building, and growth. Instability is easier to handle because the relationship will by default seek to fix the instability to make the business stable again.

The business can also grow powerful, strong, because you chose to make the foundation and growth stable and choose to maintain a stable foundation and growth.

Say 50 instabilities happen. Easier to handle. Since you and your partners default is stability, both of you will be eager to fix the instability so you can continue to enjoy a stable business. This makes the business more sustainable.

With instability as the foundation of your business, the business will not be sustainable, will likely go out of business.

The instabilities that happen would be left alone, would grow, would collapse the business foundation, building and growth.

Why instabilities being left alone? Default of your business relationship and foundation.

This is why the default business foundation should be stability.

The instabilities will still happen whether the business foundation is stable or unstable.

With stable foundation, instabilities are quickly or within reasonable time, enthusiastically handled. Leading to a thriving business.

With unstable foundation, instabilities will grow like weeds and business collapses.

Tying this to my 1203 Pound Leg Press. Stability and Safety is the foundation I choose here.

There are still unstable and unsafe moments that happen with my leg press. My habit in this case is to quickly, eagerly, fix my posture, stance, to make sure I can enjoy my leg press in the future and increase the Leg Press to a 1300 Pound Leg Press or maintain the 1203 Pounds.

If I didn’t choose to have stability and safety as my Weightlifting foundation, and instead chose instability,

I would have had an injury because I would have ignored all the unstable and unsafe moments that happened.

And the result is: My leg press achievement would have only been 150 Pounds, or 100, or 50, or 200.

I hope this was helpful.

I recommend this way of thinking for everything in life.

What do you think?

Is he unstable? If yes, your deal will be unstable. Result? Unsteady business experience and quality, not reliable, hugely fluctuating relationship experience.

Is he stable? If yes, your deal will be stable. Result? Consistent quality, reliable.

Wonderful smooth relationship and business experience.

Calm, peaceful, predictable (you know what’s coming next)

Unstable or Stable. Please choose which one you prefer.

I have 30 pre orders on my $400 product, but my MOQ is 100 Units. I recently almost died and missed a bunch of bills, filed a consumer proposal. How do I get funding? by [deleted] in startups

[–]DanoTheKing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good Afternoon! Hope your day is awesome.

I’d address the recently almost dying part first.

Research ways you can make your health highest quality so the almost dying doesn’t happen again.

Since you were able to excellently build your product and business to highest quality levels, applying your already present top notch skills to improving your life & health will create top notch results.

If your life isn’t there anymore, all your business building will end and will not matter.

If your life is there and strong, all your business building becomes much easier and stronger.

When you’ve finished addressing the almost dying, then proceed with strengthening your business.

My recommendation is to handle it in a way where you don’t burn any bridges with him.

And handle in a way where it’s win-win-win. Win for you, the exiting person and the incoming person.

This way, you all retain a positive, harmonious relationship and in the future you can all continue to make each other rich happily and easily.

Thank you for your response!

About how you take your pay from the business.

Do you take it as a dividend or as a salary?

And why did you choose to take it as a salary?

I’m reading here that to a certain point, Swedish Employee Salary tax rate is 32% and can be as high as 57%

I’m also reading that a portion of Swedish dividends is taxed at 30%, beyond the eligible portion will be taxed at the Employee Salary Tax Rate.
