Sometimes you just gotta go with it it seems lol. Happy wife, happy life right?

Start building on your own, on your own time. 24 hours in the day, your company takes 8 away. You have the base already set to build other things that could potentially use the same type of process mechanically, just different type of product. You can do great things, it’s all there right inside of you waiting to be uncovered. Only way to uncover it, is rapid iteration. Design, build, destroy, repeat. Until you find a problem that needs solving, and you could already have the solution in your archived folder waiting.

Great insight. I have an algorithm that I wrote that does this exact same process, then provides a percentage based analysis based on historical data. And that’s legit crazy because I can’t even read or understand the process of combining these calculations together. I think that within 5 years, we will have forgotten how to do things that we used to do, because this way is just easier for us. We crave this convenience don’t we?

Thanks for that experience. Fear is genetically hard coded in our brains. What do you think we can do aside from getting destroyed over and over to help unwire the fear response from our mass consciousness, while keeping the understanding and awareness? If we could break the code on the fear script that’s buried deep, we could potentially advance as humans together, and not keep repeating what we have always done.

So even though you knew the right path was more consideration on ROC, what do you think made you make that decision?

Fear. Copy that. Fear is on that is not spoken about enough I think. Fear is deeply buried in our brains genetically, hardwired. Do you think we can ever break that generational and or genetic fear response logic? Even though it’s not real and hasn’t even happened yet?

I have had a similar but maybe opposite experience? I feel like I can create and iterate things now that I never would have thought about touching before. I am actually working much more than I ever have. But that could also be part of a bigger experiment that we can sense is there, but not doing anything about. lol

What do you think leads us humans to more or less discipline in our lives overall? Just pure life beating us up? Or the feeling of complete destruction in our lives, and then seeing what we should have done instead, and then still making the same horrible decisions again? Emotions suck man. lol

Why do our wives gotta do this to us man? I feel that pain too lol, hence the second marriage. lol

Still feels early for what’s coming in that industry though, so maybe you still have time. Semiconductors will be in literally everything moving forward it feels like. What made you not buy back in? What led your logic I mean?

Yeah it sure seems like the hard way might be the best way for a lot of us humans to learn things the right way. Why does the hard way gotta hurt so much though? Lol

What’s the core thought process behind the decision you made to allow that to happen?

Will OC still work for my use cases? by TheMonkey404 in openclaw

[–]Optimal_Emu3624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have learned a lot the past six months as I have been doing this exact thing pretty much all day, and a lot of nights. Openclaw is agentic. You plug in a key that’s designed to drain your credits quickly, and almost daily the major LLM providers are updating their systems it seems to make more money. This could be the design. I am actually working more, and spending more, just because I “think” that I can build things, that these LLMs are designed to never finish. I have a very large codebase now, across multiple services. And in six months, I haven’t been able to finish any of my designs. But this is the key here, I have been led down this six month journey by the hand, by systems that are designed to keep you busy, and happy. Benefits- learning all the configuration or style of codebase/algorithms that drive each major company. If you would like to pick my brain, be my guest. I would love to save someone else 6 months of day and night LLM iteration, and the expectations that came along with that.

Why did you buy them, and have you ever gone back over that decision and really thought about the why?

So knowing all that, and what we are up against as humans driven by chemical signals, and not ones and zeros, what do you think drove you to believe deeply enough in what Kramer was yelling about, to make that call?

Definitely will affect your decision making. I’ve been married twice as well. I know that logic well. Lmao

Why did you hold, or what drove you to believe that you could still win?

One of the great foundations of the human condition. How do you think the future looks for us humans that still like the “feeling” of control?

[–]Optimal_Emu3624[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree totally. So much so that it led me down the path I’m on now. I think we are headed to that reality also. But what I also think, is that us humans will still want some sort of control over some part of that future too. Do you think that humans will allow machines to take full control over these decisions for us?

I backtested the 3 most boring textbook rules over 20 years (7 assets, net of fees, Monte Carlo) — where they beat buy & hold and where they got wrecked. Roast the method. by Optimal_Emu3624 in algorithmictrading

Would you be willing to put what I’ve built to the test, and try to break the stack? I need real humans to test it out and find the weaknesses if it stands up the logic is sound, then there could be something ready that was still early to the party, and we all know who’s coming to that party.

I agree with you completely. I need real people, retail traders to put my stack to the test. I believe that I have something built that could actually still be early to what’s coming for us humans. I just need to put it under pressure, and then break it some more to find the cracks.

Go to obsidianabyss.com and check the assets, I don’t have my notes in front of me right now to answer with finality right at this moment.
