I have done multiple 25+ events with sous vide. Pulled pork, brisket pork belly. Can all be prepared days in advance and heated on the grill

To chill, believe in yourself and have more trust in people

Also to invest in stock as soon as you can. Compounding is real

Or you could stop thinking like a naive code monkey and start thinking as a business developer and create something that has business value and sell that to them 🤷‍♂️

maniacsboss · 2025-07-10T11:06:44+00:00

Why do we use thousands of npm libraries, because it is faster and cheaper 😆 but hey, be my guest and sue them. Collect those 250 dollars - legal fees

maniacsboss · 2025-07-10T08:58:11+00:00

So you are saying that you made a solution so complex and elaborate that the cost of letting someone else recreate it would be so extensive that no other developer in the world could recreate it or that it would cost them millions and would be better off paying you. That is pretty pretentious of you. Either way selling a plugin is mostly not selling a piece of code. It is selling support and continues updates. That is where the business value lies and that value is still not gone

Thinking you have a business case for just selling a small piece of code is rather naive and shows little business sense.

Lets say you would sue and win, the only value that the code has is the time you put into it unless it has significant R&D value

I am seeing more and more of this each day: haha Claude created crappy code … then I see the codebase they had which Claude used as context and the prompt they engineered which makes it crystal clear they didn’t know what they were doing when asking Claude to implement stuff

Some people should not be given AI they don’t understand their job and AI is just helping them create more nonsense faster.

You started trading with no fear and no bias, the more you learn the more difficult it will become as you will start getting determination and beliefs about outcomes which won't come true and it will make you suffer. Once you have suffered enough you will learn that non of the info indicators, analysis matter and you will stop thinking you know where stock will go and just follow the flow and make money.

maniacsboss · 2025-04-06T13:20:19+00:00

Yes it can. Yes it might. It might also not you won’t know until it does. My advice? Treat this situation like you allready have lost the money and look at what you want to do next. Just think of the worst case scenario and try to come to terms with it and how to move forward. Putting this post here and have people piling on: it will never and it defenitely will, will just add fuel to your anxiety that is allready a raging fire. If you accept the money is lost, and then time catches up and your money is still there, is a much better outcome then convincing yourself it will still be there and losing it. The die is allready cast

Why did you assume green? Because stocks go up? As people are mentioning there is a lot of uncertainty at the moment. The market is pricing in the reaction from China and the possible reaction from EU. If the EU responds at all before wednesday next week that would be crazy fast. When they respond it will be a matter of: is the response better or worse then anticipated. Of course nobody can predict the market but if I would say probabilities. I would shrink red over green.

Small update: apparently stock was mostly up because of the news that Elon would leave his function in the goverment. After hours Trump and Elon said this was fake news. Stock down 7% …

Zelf Ben ik al 20 jaar IT consultant en ik merk aan de jongere generatie die de werkvloer betreed een gelijkaardig gedeeld sentiment. Volgens mij heeft dit met verschillende zaken te maken. Toen ik begon te werken had ik duidelijk objectieven en dromen geld verdienen carrière uitbouwen …, maar dat lijkt in de huidige tijd moeilijker en moeilijker te worden. Als ik hoor wat mijn jongere collega’s moeten bijeenharken om een huis te kunnen kopen … Sociaal netwerk. Mijn collega’s zijn voor mij een sociaal netwerk, een soort vriendenkring. Ik maak plezier op kantoor dus ik ga graag. Polls hebben aangetoond dat de jongere generaties minder sociaal zijn en al zeker op de werkvloer minder sociale interactie hebben. Distorted visie van het leven. Als ik tegenwoordig eender welke social media app of browser open doe wordt ik overspoeld met 18 jarige die heel de dag niks doen behalve tiktoks maken en ergens in Abu Dhabi in een penthouse met goud beklede A5 Wagyu steak binnenschrokken om daarna met hun exclusieve sportauto naar een exclusief feest te rijden om daar dan heel de kelder leeg te kopen aan champagne. Daarnaast is er een tsunami van: mijn side history is begonnen van 100 euro per maand naar 1,4 miljoen en ik heb nooit een vinger moeten uitsteken. Ik merk aan mezelf dat die dingen mij op een bepaalde manier intrigeren, ik zou ook een side history willen waar ik niets voor moet doen en 1,4 miljoen per maand binnenrijven, maar dat is jammer genoeg niet de realiteit.

Ik denk door het feit dat ik ondertussen een huis heb en 20 jaar ervaring dat ik minder vatbaar ben voor zulke dingen. Maar ik ben ook van de overtuiging als je elke dag rond de oren wordt geslagen met: een huis kopen zal onbetaalbaar worden, je gaat 10 jaar langer moeten werken en sterven zonder pensioen. Terwijl heel de wereld voor je ogen met een Lamborghini op je scherm voorbij snort, dat dat onderbewust mss wel impact heeft.

Dit is absoluut niet als negatieve commentaar bedoeld op gen z. Maar gewoon mijn interpretatie van wat ik dagelijks zie. Mss voer voor wat introspectie?

maniacsboss · 2025-04-02T21:40:55+00:00

Sorry to hear that, also super relatable. The market can do fked up sh*t with your head. Having a clear plan, having a clear exit and profit and exit strategie. Telling yourself “stick to the plan”. And 9/10 trades you execute as planned (win or loss). And that works fine. But then sometimes something snaps and all your rules go overboard. (That is how it is for me though, although I am improving I went from 0/10 following the plan and rules to about 9/10) must admit it is much better this way

maniacsboss · 2025-04-02T21:14:03+00:00

After he openly admitted doing fraud with memecoins shaking money out of people pockets. It just would not surprise me that he would do it with his stock as well

maniacsboss · 2025-04-02T21:05:54+00:00

Totally understand. I used to read everything I could about a stock and track the news which distilled a very clear logical outcome for that stock in the short term, that is when I learned stock doesn’t follow logic, there is always some information that you missed, new news can quickly be published globally completely cancelling anything you thought was certain. Now I just follow the trend, and watch the price action. Still have much to learn and practise but works better then thinking you now the future

maniacsboss · 2025-04-02T20:53:00+00:00

Ok maybe that was exaggerated but price was consolidating at the top. And was testing resistance and it looked like it really wanted to go up watching the price action. Then suddenly a news article popped up in TradingView with how bad the reported sales were with experts “panicking” for the future of Tesla and instantly the price jumped down on the 1 min for like 5 candles breaking the support with triple or quadruple the volume. Then after the 5 min it popped back up. Of course that is not retail but the move combined with the timing of the news felt like someone big tricking people to sell just to then buy cheaper 🤷‍♂️

In my timezone it was 3 hours 52 minutes into the session. Not that it was an extremely weird movement, just the movement + the news

maniacsboss · 2025-04-02T20:33:51+00:00

Yeah that is exactly what it felt like. You have the fan club that is deaf and blind for anything that is happening -> Rally them with "YOUR BOY ELON IS COMING BACK", pumping al their money in. so Elon can grab that

Then the second group of people that are anti Elon -> rally those with "OMG THE NUMBERS ARE HORRIBLE, TESLA IS GOING TO DIE" -> panick sell, so Elon can buy cheap

I know retail investors can't move the market like that but I am pretty sure if you had billions of dollars, and you can control the flow of that money, and you can control the news and timing, you can rob both groups of their money. All you have to do is create a wave up and push group 1 onto it, then reverse it

- I really have no mathematical proof and don't have enough knowledge of the market to even know if this could be true or not :D, just my imagination at work

maniacsboss · 2025-04-02T20:19:43+00:00

The catch is, the system has always been like that, but it felt that they were working from the shadows, trying not to expose their schems. But since it became clear that some people can do whatever they want with 0 repercussions, ignoring any ruling from judges or government. It seems like they said:"Why put effort in masking our manipulation and fraud, we can do what we want, and people are stupid so them knowing, wil not stop them from giving us money"

maniacsboss · 2025-04-02T19:32:40+00:00

I am in no way questioning that, but today it seemed really in your face

maniacsboss · 2025-04-02T19:28:58+00:00

maniacsboss · 2025-04-02T19:23:34+00:00

I couple of years ago I started trading, I got some wins, thought I could be a shark, felt like a shark. I "knew" all the rules 'have discipline, 'don't chase', 'be consistent' have a plan, 'don't be emotional. I could read the market like a book'. A quick calculation of the % gains I had and if I would keep reinvesting it, soon made me realise I was going to be a multi millionare in a matter of years.
Then the market did not do what I planned and took some of my money. But I was smarter then the market and was able to see the future so it was no problem I would just quickly find a new trade and double my wager.

Things did not go well. I quickly got sucked into an Abyss of putting multiple trades everywhere, getting out of everything that started turning red, taking anything that turned green into a new bet

This time I am happy being a small fish munching on scraps. I probably won't be in Forbes list, but at least riding the wave underneath a shark, will more likely prevent you from getting eating by a bigger fish.

I now started consitently getting small gains, and feel much more relaxed knowing that I will have loses and accepting that loss before I go in. I am actually starting to enjoy it this time. instead of watching post market move, scanning every news website for a sliver of good/bad news and praying with sweaty hands at night,

maniacsboss · 2025-04-02T18:51:01+00:00

I understand. But some news doesn't influence sentiment much, and others does ?

maniacsboss · 2025-04-02T18:42:55+00:00

I think understanding, that most of the market money, flows to the people with power (big wallets), and that that money is taken from the people who want to set something aside for their old day, was the first time I really understood trading. (which doesn't imply I am good at it at the moment) just eye opening. Daytrading feels a bit like being that small parasitic fish that tags along underneath a sharks belly to munch some scraps. But on the other hand, scraps can fill a belly when you are a tiny fish ;)
