    Why you should buy a home as early as possible.

    GOLD! HOT! ASSERTION 
    I wish I had bought ~10 years ago. Now prices have almost tripled in the same areas lmao. Now I have money sitting in the bank but buying at these prices is very risky as they are inflated. I wish I had put the money into actual houses back then. One was a lovely semidetached in front of the...

    MINDSET 
    Sorry that you are struggling. I've always seen you mostly as an upbeat kind of forum member, which is always great. It's not cool to see that things haven't gone as planned for you yet. Do you like coding? It's a great skill and no AI will fully get rid of it despite the doom & gloom out...

    Congrats to all of you who today replaced an old decrepit man with another old decrepit man. What can go wrong.

    I have a problem with MJ DeMarco (Follow your passion gets a beatdown)

    GOLD! HOT! 
    If my passion is playing the ocarina, chances are I'm screwed. But if my passion is something with a market, the chances change. Maybe it's a terminology issue, I don't care whether you call it passion or purpose. But at the end of the day, what matters to create a great service or product is...

    Unity Game Engine just exercised their power of control that would destroy Indie Game Scene

    HOT! RANT 
    I still wouldn't go back to them. They'll be nice for now as their stock went to shit and also lost quite a few customers. But they'll be back to their ways as soon as people forget. I don't trust this company, and I don't like their business model of spreading themselves too thin while trying...

    Call me weird, but 80 year olds (and this goes for Trump too) should not be allowed to rule a country or even a village town hall. I never understood why people this old insist in staying in politics. You are lucky if your mind is just okay from your 60s, let alone being a prime minister.

    Help From Any Web/App Developers?

    EXECUTION QUESTION 
    For websites, Webflow, Bubble. For apps, Flutterflow. But beware that no-code tools will only get you so far and you'll hit limitations. I can only speak for Flutterflow: it'll create spaghetti code that will be hard to tweak and extend. This is one of the reasons why I avoid no-code, but I'm...

    Am I being and idiot and moving too slow?

    MINDSET 
    I agree with this. I see so many people getting into coding because it's hot. Heck, I love coding and some times I feel like changing careers because not everything is exactly fun. I can't imagine how someone who has no interest would feel a couple of years in. I see so many people switching...

    Am I being and idiot and moving too slow?

    Sounds like you are chasing money. I've been there. "I want to build this business, but this other one is going to make money quicker, yay!". 5 years later, I've tried a bunch of things and made exactly $0. I'm going to go against some sacred cows here, but I think the question you should ask...

    I'm having AI anxiety. What is your thoughts on upcoming AI?

    HOT! CHAT 
    Interesting use case, I'll try it when there's something that needs fixing (although I ended up fixing what it created, lol). I tried it on the frontend this morning, and I wasn't too happy with the results. Maybe it was me not guiding it, but it was for something quite simple that I know how...

    HOT! CHAT 
    I guess everyone's brain works in a different way. It's cool that you found Copilot useful. I find it useful to type less, but for any mildly complex thing, it just gets in my way. For example, say you want to build a feature that has frontend and backend. You need to build the frontend in baby...

    I'm having AI anxiety. What is your thoughts on upcoming AI?

    HOT! CHAT 
    I just installed GitHub Copilot again today, to give it a fair try (paying for 1 month should make me take it more serious than during the free trial last year). So far, so good; programmers' job security I mean, because if this is the state-of-art AI for coding, jobs are not going anywhere...

    What if you've never had your FTE?

    MINDSET FTE 
    So true. Sadly, the environment where you grow in can be a double-edged sword, even if everything looks alright. The comfort of no having to work your butt off, because your paycheck is more than enough. Your parents playing it safe and wiring your brain up for decades on how playing it safe is...

    Creating books with AI

    Sure, just use AI to regurgitate stuff you probably don't even know about, then sell it for a few bucks, rinse and repeat till passive income and mojito on the beach. WTF.

    How to improve immunity?

    HOT! HEALTH 
    It might sound oversimplistic, but what I've found/seen mess up with immunity for people without a particular disease/auto-immune disorder is: Unbalanced diet lacking vitamins, minerals, etc and featuring fat. - Nothing like a Mediterranean (or similar) diet, despite mainstream influencers...

    I am 29. My business makes me $2m in income a year. What next?

    HOT! QUESTION 
    Unless I see genuine potential for much more than $2M, I'd sell and not worry about money again. Probably start something else if I've got the itch. But I'd mainly do the things I want to do, now without any constraints.

    If money wasn't an issue what would you do with the majority of your time?

    It's funny how humans struggle with self-actualisation, purpose, and things like that. My dog's biggest concern was begging her best to get proper food while we had dinner, and finding the most comfy position under the blanket on the sofa in winter. She didn't browse forums to figure out what to...

    Building a video games business from scratch

    EXECUTION 
    I started making a new game a couple of weeks ago. I'm not sure whether it'll go anywhere, but I needed to get it out of my head. I think the game could be good if I get it right, but it's in a niche-niche, so who knows. I've been following Robert Greene's work again. It really resonated with...

    The problem is many people confuse AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) with ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence). The former is "just" a tool to solve stuff in a broad way. The latter is the scary one, theoretically surpassing humans, even experts at X field. I'm no expert, but the current...
