As a single guy, I prefer work from office. I'm sure if I was married with kids, I would prefer just the opposite.

Yeah, I know that online "investing" is driven by hype these days. But, I was basically hoping that there was something out there that at least explores investing ideas out of the mainstream not based entirely on hype or rug pulls. Just want exposure to some interesting ideas that I can then do due diligence on.

Thanks, had not heard of The Art and Science of Technical Analysis, will definitely check it out. I read Intelligent Investor, but kind of felt it lacking, because I didn't feel like it went low-level enough. I also have Security Analysis by Ben Graham, but have never gone through it. Any thoughts on that?

Looks interesting. Is there a benefit specific to using PHP for building the UI, like access to PHP libraries, etc.? Or is it for people already using PHP on the server-side, so they can also use the same language for the client-side?

Yeah, I prefer the discussions via essay format as well. Instead of the quick meme reactions. I guess it's good for comedy and being edgy, but not really for high quality ideas. I vaguely recall seeing a Show HN of a discovery tool for personal blogs, but don't think it really took off. Sad to see.

I think he's getting at something important. I started writing for the same reason basically. But wish there was a way to network my writings with other people's writings.

Maybe I just need to build a social media following (probably on Twitter)?

Just curious do people use these types of automations to help with coding/software engineering? If so, in what way?

Had a boss once who insisted that all if statements should be pushed out to factory classes, and all control logic should be done by constructing a different instance of an interface. It was a pretty rigid system, but at least it did force me to write small focused classes that were easy to test.

Debated for a long time whether that methodology was stuck in the second phase or if it was actually the third. Still don't have an answer, but these days I think having a plan is better than just letting engineers run roughshod, as long as the conventions are easy to follow.

I bought a PopOS Gazelle with an Nvidia GPU so I could play around with ML stuff. But, looking back on it, it might have been more efficient to just get a GPU instance on AWS or Google Cloud, and just using a remote desktop like this.

Anybody tried that configuration? If so, how has your experience been?

Big +1. Most corporate software is pretty straightforward (the company likes it this way so that it's easier to onboard new engineers). So, you stand out by delivering something other engineers can't, deep insights into how software can solve specific domain problems.

Yeah, I'm the same way. I've gotten better at it though by "practicing." For me, it's the same process as strength training. You need progressive overload. Start with easy to read attention capturing books, and slowly progress to harder and harder books.
