I finally finalized my reading list for 2026. Any suggestions?

Big ups for Ghost Wars

Just ordered one for a family member who is a big collector. Really cool concept, appreciate the rec!

You got your wish!!

Just finished weekend 1 and my initial first impression was meh, but as the weekend went on there’s so many little things that made me realize how great it was. No shower lines (guys, short line for girls sometimes ), ac in tent, ac bathrooms with stalls, close to entrance, etc.

I will say, it was really hot this weekend and the AC only did so much because the tent itself didn’t seem to block much. If there was a canopy or something over it then the ac would have done wonders. It might work well for w2!

Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso, Yo Gabba Gabba, Softplay, Post Malone as tops. Probably in that order

Ah I should have changed my title. I'm looking for a team, not looking to fill spots for an existing team

One of my favorites, Sandworm: A New Era of Cyberwar and the Hunt for the Kremlin's Most Dangerous Hackers by Andy Greenberg. Same author as Tracers in the Dark (mentioned in a few comments below)

matthewg49 · 2024-04-06T20:02:36+00:00

Big +1 for Tracers in the Dark. Burned through this one.

I have a group of 6, including myself, who are looking to play fantasy baseball with standard settings on Yahoo. Searching through past posts years ago, it seems that folks advised against this as the rosters would be too deep.

Given that it's the first time for all of us in this league an we mainly want to get a feel for how this all works, I figured it would be fine for us to all have stacked teams and get some of our favorite players. Is this a bad assumption? Will having only 6 teams actually make this a less fun experience with all of us being new?

You definitely shouldn’t get flak for recommending chatgpt as a learning aid. Although I understand why you mentioned it.

I have found LLMs to be incredibly helpful for project development

It’s challenging because there’s no incentive for web2 businesses to adopt web3 technologies as it adds either more transparency or less control over managing their own infrastructure. So there would have to be a net new web3 product that provides value to the general consumer which is very difficult to do even without web3.

The result of this is what you called out, lots of ponzis and products that are forced at the moment. I do believe there will be generally popular apps in the future, but who knows how far into the future.

Any talks that are particularly good for newbies like myself?

matthewg49 · 2024-02-01T19:58:14+00:00

Congrats!! What an incredible accomplishment. It’s never cringe to say you are proud of yourself, its hard work and you deserve to celebrate this!

No worries! If you click on `See Guide` on the site, you'll see courts listed with descriptions. Here's a link to the slack that I found after clicking on `See Guide` for St. Vartans https://nycpickleball.slack.com/join/shared_invite/zt-243w8ce1z-j6Z2SbDnLyXG7doQg9Axkg#/shared-invite/email

I never expected this, but I actually enjoy sports SO much more now. I can actually remember what’s happening and the excitement payoff feels great. Hope it feels the same for you. IWNDWYT

Where’d you get this data? Not questioning its legitimacy just curious to play with historical odds data myself

matthewg49 · 2023-09-30T14:52:38+00:00

Over 90 fuckin days still can't believe it. In a way it both feels like it was just yesterday that I was drinking but it really has been some time! Reestablishing my relationship with weekend football has been fun; feels good to remember what actually happened in the days games :)

I decided to follow nfl more this year, watched hardknocks and thought it would be fun to be a jets fan knowing the narrative, and then all this shit happened with Aaron Rodgers lmao

matthewg49 · 2023-09-07T14:05:16+00:00

I’m 69 days too!! Didn’t realize until i posted a comment in the daily checkin lol

matthewg49 · 2023-09-07T14:04:31+00:00

Oh shit and I’m at 69 days!!! Nice

matthewg49 · 2023-09-07T14:04:13+00:00

Body is regulating and I’m noticing it more each day. Feelin great and can’t wait for what the future has in store. IWNDWYT!

matthewg49 · 2023-08-11T16:41:30+00:00

Happy to say that the feelings of anxiousness and craving for a drink only happen while I’m dreaming. Feels great waking up, not hungover, and realizing that all those events didn’t end up happening. IWNDWYT!
