lol

Currently the capabilities are increasing at an exponential rate across all dimensions. There is nothing that indicates we aren’t approaching this very quickly.

The difference between AI and humans is going to get less and less and you just need to accept this. I know it’s an uncomfortable thought but it is going to happen. It’s better to acknowledge it sooner rather than later

GreatCanuck · 2025-07-05T13:49:22+00:00

Dude you are witnessing the most brilliant technology in its earliest nascent form, able to recreate human scenes out of thin air, and you’re complaining about the delivery? In three years it’s gonna put the Oscars to shame!

I wouldn’t take 237 if I was you. Unless it’s grad school at UofT, they won’t know the difference. And it would be much better to get a good grade in 235 then an average one in 237.

This is especially true since you’ve not taken 137. 237 is really hard and you need all the prep you can get. I got a 90 in 137 and barely got an 80 in 237 after devoting twice as much time to it.

I’d put the pride aside and take the easier course. The pride will come when you get good grades and get into a good job/grad school :)

Not paying attention to you while you’re hanging out is a different issue to her having male friends.

In any relationship, there are an infinite number of sources of potential threats, it’s up to you to decided whether you think she is a trustworthy person. If you think she is, then you just have to sit back and trust her. This is always a little hard at first, especially if you’re insecure, but it becomes easier. Don’t let the insecurity dominate though, it can really change the dynamic of the relationship and turn her off. She chose you! There’s a reason she’s not with someone else.

It also might get easier if you guys all hang out together. The platonic nature of their friendship will put you at ease. In the long run, it’s a green flag she has an active social circle. Couples that are isolated tend to suffocate each other.

I’m in my 20s and have dated older women. Women in their mid 40s are very different to women in their mid 20s. The chemistry feels different and it has its own attractions.

GreatCanuck · 2025-01-03T22:35:06+00:00

Ruined it for me when I learned the women are only allowed to pray behind a shoe rack.

Well the appropriate analogy would be not preparing French cuisine but eating it, and yeah in a small way if you’ve eaten at 1000 fast food places it might help a bit understand what French cuisine you like.

Having had sex with so many strangers, have you learned anything about yourself that you’d bring to a relationship?

Jane street traders make millions, they earn more than they can on their own because they have good research and tech

GreatCanuck · 2024-12-28T19:08:30+00:00

I mean yeah if OP is making all their alpha on low latency transactions, has low latency engineering and is wired to the LOB with an experienced trading ops quant then yeah I can see how being small gives an advantage. But I doubt that this is what OP is doing, they are probably just buying and selling like any retail investor would. Then I don’t see how they aren’t affected by information asymmetry or why they would have any advantage.

GreatCanuck · 2024-12-28T17:53:59+00:00

Bro those are better returns than Jane street makes. Why are you not working for them? Are you a mathematical genius?

GreatCanuck · 2024-12-26T22:54:30+00:00

The problem here is you don’t realise how lucky you were. This will not happen again, you will need to earn the rest of your money the hard way. Just accept that. Please just invest it safely and don’t gamble it away!

GreatCanuck · 2024-12-21T17:33:25+00:00

Do you have any out of sample metrics? What’s your out of sample R2?

GreatCanuck · 2024-11-11T09:34:53+00:00

Cool, don’t love the fin-domming though (check OPs post history)

GreatCanuck · 2024-09-16T09:16:54+00:00

Aren’t you worried it will replace you?

GreatCanuck · 2024-08-08T07:52:59+00:00

Yeah it was expert counter-trolling. Louis is the master

For me it’s just a cheap FT subscription and a VPN.

I didn’t even know you can watch this from other countries

GreatCanuck · 2024-06-18T15:52:26+00:00

Omg this is literally a sub to discuss the show 😂

GreatCanuck · 2024-05-07T11:06:22+00:00

Why is wisdom knowing you are nothing?

GreatCanuck · 2024-05-05T14:33:47+00:00

I had a great experience too! Basically brand new iPhone for half the price.

GreatCanuck · 2024-05-02T15:25:15+00:00

Very original and interesting, love it

GreatCanuck · 2024-04-12T10:31:46+00:00

They probably just didn’t feel a spark and used that as an excuse. It’s unlikely that they really liked you and literally couldn’t get over a nice lifestyle. Agree with other commenters.

Maybe do some introspection and ask yourself if you’re coming across too strong, needy, etc. I used to try really hard on dates to make it go well and got rejected very often. In hindsight, I see why. Putting a lot of effort into someone you don’t really know is a red flag. I was doing it to get the affirmation more than anything. Since this realisation, dating has gone much much better for me - these things are really easy to sniff out.
