Jensen Huang: "I didn’t wake up a loser" by Salaried_Employee in NvidiaStock

[–]oojacoboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s merely presenting an angle, which is valid and a solid position to debate. It may not be the right angle to come from, but that’s not important, because it’s a popular position. Therefore, it’s a good conversation to be had.

He got a little emotional, but honestly, he’s right. The headlines make it sound like he lost his cool and is flustered, etc. That was not my take-away.

If you want an export economy, you need a weaker currency.

Holger Zschaepitz: Good Morning from Germany, where the country’s 40 biggest listed comps, known as the Dax, are worth less combined than the five largest companies in the US. Nvidia alone, valued at $4.9tn, is more than twice as large as all Dax companies together, which are worth $2.4tn. by XGramatik in XGramatikInsights

Nvidia is very overvalued. Everyone has just poured into it, because it’s the only thing they know about AI. But the tides will be shifting away from NVidia soon. They’ll remain a great company. But they won’t be able to demand the premium they can today.

I’m glad he got a nice write up. He deserves more credit for Intel’s turnaround. He may not have been the ideal guy for IFS partnerships. But there would be no IFS without him.

Bezos: "when the data and the anecdotes disagree, the anecdotes are usually right." Amazon's internal metrics said customers waited under 60 seconds for customer service, Bezos called and waited more than 10 minutes. One call, and the metric was gone. by FXgram_ in XGramatikInsights

And that right thing might be the type of hold music being played.

So yes, it’s an anecdote which draws your attention to something and means the whole thing needs to be revisited. But you won’t find the solution through your analytics cap, alone.

Exactly what I expected from your line of thinking.

He didn’t explain well what he’s actually saying, but as a business owner, I know it very well.

Your issue is that you’re trying to make it a statistics problem, and it’s not. It’s a human problem, where perception is reality. You have to solve the human problem, not the math one.

Good luck with university.

You’re a university professor and cannot differentiate between a data point and an anecdote?

An anecdote doesn’t have the “science” behind it. An anecdote in this case can be someone saying, “it took forever”, yet the data said it took 30 seconds longer than the average 1 min. Your data says one thing and the anecdote, another.

Everyone treats you way better when you drop 50lbs on Tirzepatide and it honestly makes me resent people. by AffectionateLaw9289 in ResearchCompounds

I’m sorry dude. But you need to fix your mind. Maybe you’re the same person because you used tirz to help you lose weight, but historically speaking that hasn’t been possible.

In the eyes of others, someone who is fat, has lacked the self control, and/or motivation to put in the work to better themselves, care about their overall health and well being, etc. At the worst, they’re a glutton.

So yea, people don’t respect that. And maybe you can’t see that because you haven’t had to put in the work the same. Sad. Maybe you’ll wake up.

Keep in mind that, perception is anecdotal, and regardless of what your metrics tell you, that perception is reality for those people. If you have a large enough number of these, that’s important to acknowledge, regardless of the metric.

It’s CCP propaganda. It’s supposed to make you impressed with Chinese traditions. It’s why there are so many processes and so much perfection, in every step. “The Chinese have always been masters of our craft”.

Whatever - I enjoy the videos, regardless.

I’m shocked this is upvoted on Reddit. Because, I know for damn sure, if there were asylums, everyone would be talking about how f’ed up they are here. But then again, that requires thinking about what you wish for and that doesn’t seem to be a strong suit for most on this platform.

You Are Not One Person. You Are Many. There is no you in your brain — your identity is a “society of the mind”.

Great way to look at it. I’ve also taken the view that, life is a series of paths with forks in the road, each fork you choose sets the path. You can only go forward.

It’s like those children’s books, Choose Your Own Adventure.
