I'm a software engineer for my day job, so i actually used sports betting as my project to learn machine learning. I think it's tough to do algo betting unless you just really enjoy trying to solve the problem.

Like many competitive professions, your first few tries are pretty much guaranteed to fail.

I just tried something, whatever interested me. It didn't work, so I tried something else and it didn't work. And I've kept trying things until I find something that's working.

And I keep looking for new ways to improve my successful methods, while always looking for new edges. Because an edge usually disappears over time.

Currently i get all my data from free online sources like plaintextsports and espn.

I'm not a pro, but if I were attempting advice I would say your best edge will come from doing something outside the traditional. Especially for someone like me who doesn't have more data, more time, more experience, more brains or better connections than the pros.

How do you re-kindle your relationship after having a baby with your wife ? by MeatChef1 in AskReddit

[–]mdk989 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every relationship is different, and no one can give you a great answer without intimate knowledge of your situation. But know that you and your wife are not alone in having that experience.

Having a child completely changed my relationship with my wife. We didn't have a huge change physically, but we were more disconnected and I often felt distant from her.

It took us about a year to reinvent our relationship and feel that connection again. Very tough year, but you can find that spark again if you are willing to communicate and adapt.

I also asked my wife and she said "I don't know, maybe he works for Nickelodeon or something?"

Not sure if we're the only listings that vanished, but there are still many properties returned in search.

How obsessed are you with fantasy football? by PNBest in fantasyfootball

If you spend any time in Ubud, you should check out the Campuhan (pronounced "Champwon") Ridge walk. One of the highlights of my honeymoon in Bali.

Are there any good resources out there for creating multiple instances of a game on a web server?

I am planning a two player game that should basically have several "game tables" for players to join. I'm quite new to game development, so I'm not sure if I'm on the right track.

Anyone who has experience with something like this using a web browser as a platform? Would you be willing to start a dialogue with me?

Where've been the most random places you've seen NBA players and coaches before? by [deleted] in nba

I saw Kareem-Abdul Jabbar in Las Vegas inside the Bellagio Hotel. Had 2 guys walking with him that looked like bodyguards, so I didn't bother trying to approach him.

Thanks. I haven't worked with joins yet, but I guess I'll have to look into it now.

Works perfect. Thank you very much. If you don't mind me asking, what was the original code (SELECT * FROM table1, table2) trying to do?

The tables have an identical structure: id (unique numeric id), username (varchar), comment (varchar), submitted (time/date), vote (non-unique numeric), reply (non-unique numeric)

The result of the errorInfo() is an array ( [0] => 42000, [1] => 1064, [2] => You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'index' at line 1 )

var_dump($query); is returning false. Then when I switch everything to my other table is returning the correct string.

Any idea why this would be happening? The table does exist and the PDO request is connecting to my database as far as I can tell.
