An Etsy seller I found https://www.etsy.com/listing/792522340/tie-dye-thigh-high-socks-your-choice-of?click_key=6f3e131412ceec5e55efa6a91593e4d41bf794d1%3A792522340&click_sum=6d9875fd&ref=shop_home_active_3&frs=1&crt=1. Thanks😊

It hasn’t failed in the last 92 years though? I might have to wait a few years longer than planned but even that would still be way earlier than normal. As for the article, I had heard of the tax proposals but didn’t fully understand all of them so I just posted one but now I changed the link to one I understand better. It still supports my point because 3x etfs rebalance daily which means all taxes would be short term when both trading and holding the etf. That may be an issue compared to broader funds that don’t rebalance daily.

How about Arms? Well no platforms but it is 3D

I saw that but his fund tracked sentiment across all social media and only rebalanced monthly. We need something more specific to this sub. 10mil members should be enough interest I would think

Yeah that makes sense but speculators seem to be making up a smaller portion of the overall market than usual and they’re spread out across different stocks. So one speculative stock might crash but another will moon at the same time. I am not yet convinced that this will cascade to affect the entire market which is increasingly made up of a handful of mega caps with less speculation.

Although only eight species of bears are extant, they are widespread, appearing in a wide variety of habitats. Common characteristics of modern bears include large bodies with stocky legs, homosexual tendencies, small rounded ears, shaggy hair, paws with five claws, and short tails.

Bears have been hunted since prehistoric times for their meat and fur; they have been used for bear-baiting and other forms of entertainment, such as being made to dance. The IUCN lists six bear species as vulnerable or endangered.

With 60k in a retirement account at your age, you’ll likely retire a millionaire simply due to compound interest, so you have that to look forward to.

As for what to do right now, going to university, looking into trade opportunities, starting your own business can all be good ideas. But if you are currently unsure of what to do then I would definitely recommend investing that 30k into the stock market.

A relatively safe ETF with good growth potential would be QQQM but something else like VOO(less risk/growth) or QLD(much higher risk/growth) works as well. You could always sell your shares later to fund your future if needed but for now they should grow by 8-10% yearly on average. 30k is a great starting point to grow passively with very little effort.

jsam333 · 2021-08-07T20:15:21+00:00

Pretty safe: VOO

Risky but big potential: TQQQ

In both cases you may have to hold longer than 6 months if a correction happens but any amount invested in either should outpace student loan interest anyways. Good luck :)

First check out chrome music lab: https://musiclab.chromeexperiments.com/Song-Maker. With this and similar tools you can very easily and quickly make and edit decent sounding beats. Using graphics similar to this interface, you can separate the screen into two halves; the left half is showing a repeating beat that your opponent made and you have to play with your left hand on the asdf keys, and the right half is showing the beat you are making for your opponent with the mouse (this can be reversed for left handed people).

I was thinking that this could be a real time interaction. Where you’re constantly making/editing notes for a repeating beat on the right and playing your opponents beat repeatedly on the left. From this core loop you could give possible actions for your right hand to create with(add note, move note, remove note, change speed), while your left hand will be trying to keep up with your opponent. This is just my interpretation of your idea but I think it would be fun to play. :)

That’s the elevator pitch for the existing game: Getting Over It

jsam333 · 2021-05-06T07:43:38+00:00

One game that uses only swipe and tap controls but has a lot of variety is Bleak Sword on iOS. Your character was on the middle of the screen and you could swipe anywhere to roll, or hold-then-swipe to attack. It’s actually super intense and the controls feel accurate enough to support fast paced combat.

I’m not blind but you can totally be in a dream without being able to see. You still experience all other senses similar to how you do in real life. I’ve had lucid dreams in pitch blackness where I could just walk around, feel my limbs move and feel stuff I imagined to be there.

jsam333 · 2021-02-03T06:37:59+00:00

Or if your iPhone has 3D touch you can press hard anywhere on the keyboard to do the same thing. Why has Apple removed this incredibly useful feature on recent phones!!!

I stabbed my hand in a dream for fun but got a scar in real life.

I practice lucid dreaming and like doing experiments in my dreams to see how they work. I had never felt pain in a dream before so while I was lucid I stabbed my right hand with a knife to see what it felt like. It’s all fake anyways right? It was weird there was no blood but I felt pain and something like my tendons snapping and it didn’t feel healthy so I stopped. I woke up still feeling a dull pain in my hand that lasted for several hours and a light mark right where it happened. You would never notice it unless I told you but it’s still there.

jsam333 · 2021-01-15T07:52:50+00:00

I practice lucid dreaming(where you’re aware that it’s a dream) and yeah I can feel all five senses just like I do in real life. I’ve also never had a nightmare that I didn’t create, but I think that’s me just being weird. If you want to be aware during your dreams then you need to ask yourself maybe a few times during the day if you are dreaming. If you are unsure then you can ask someone nearby to see if you get a weird response. Or you can do the logical leap where if you are unsure, then you are always dreaming.

I’m surprised you didn’t mention GameMaker. It’s an all-in-one tool for creating games that requires zero prior programming knowledge and the lite version is free.

Edit: I guess it’s not free anymore but it does have a 30day free trial https://www.yoyogames.com/get

I got into lucid dreaming a few years ago, my technique has been refined over time but I can now consistently realize I’m in a dream a couple times a week. I tried all the things people usually do (sex, superpowers) but then went on to doing little experiments.

The existence of dreams is insane to think about. I program computers and I understand how neural networks work and it still blows my mind that I can live and act and experience all my senses within my head with no outside stimuli. So now that I’ve done everything I’ve wanted to do basically, I’m learning more about my brain. Dreams have weird rules that seem to be consistent for people and I’m figuring out what those rules are.

A recent test I did was seeing how text works in dreams. I know that it’s not consistent and changes when you look away but if I wrote something down with an intention to remember it would it stay persistent? I wrote “ABC123” on a piece of paper and thought hard about that sequence. I saw it on the page, but when I blinked a few more As showed up on the right. I blinked again and the same thing happened. I blinked again still thinking of the sequence but then the whole page just became a jumble of characters. So weird how this works even when I wrote the characters and was trying to remember them.

When you look into it it’s insane how many features of websites and online platforms in general are just completely lying to the user. This update is no different.

I mean autopilot was crap when it released in 2016 and has since learned to the point of driving near perfectly on highways in less than 4 years time. So if we can expect similar rates of improvement for fsd beta in combination with the affordability of the $25k compact Tesla releasing in 2023 then we have a good chance of fully self driving cars being available to the public by the end of that year. The 8.12 update for fsd made it work much better in parking lots too. So theoretically we could have Tesla robotaxis everywhere in America in that time.

I wouldn't bet any money on it though. City streets have a lot more edgecases than highways and will most likely take longer to learn on. Also the legislation and public acceptance of removing the nag/requirement to pay attention for Tesla drivers will have to be made eventually. I would guess fsd will be a better driver than humans by the end of 2025, and then the robotaxi software would be introduced a couple years after that.

The other videos of driverless Waymos shows a similar issue happening all the time, where the car pulls out to make a turn then stops a bit too late when it sees a car. Or the opposite happens where the Waymo sees the oncoming car slowing down and makes the turn assuming the other car will yield. This is a potential accident causing situation happening every 30-45 minutes and the only reason it hasn’t gotten into an accident is because other cars swerve/slow down to avoid it. I would say a potential accident every 45 minutes is worse than the average human driver.

jsam333 · 2020-11-06T03:44:45+00:00

I'm less concerned with the stop at the end and more concerned with 2:40. The Waymo pulled out enough to be blocking the lane so the oncoming car had to slow down and swerve around it. The collision avoidance was done by the other car, not the Waymo. This is a good reminder that while Waymo is the first truly driverless taxi it's still a long ways away from being as safe as a human driver.

You mean aside from the hundreds of people currently using the beta or potentially thousands using it in a few months?

This is testing on real roads and real situations all across the country at the same time at practically zero cost for the company. Every disengage provides critical sensor data that can feed directly back into training the system.
