This is really dumb. Because the models themselves, like markets, are indeterministic. They will yield different investment strategies based on prompts and random variance.

This is a really dumb measurement.


interesting


this is great. I've wanted to build something similar for the trains outside of my flat. I have not been able to find reliable apis for this


nice


Indeed as the poet Dwayne Carter once said, “if I’m wrong, there is no right/ and if I’m wrong, there is Snow White”.


this is really neat.


glad to see the revenue being recorded


Do you have any recommendations for younger devs like myself, who have been surrounded by hustle culture & everyone being a founder?

I personally love the craft, but battle the entrepreneur in my brain telling me not to waste time learning things that won't bring tangible value.


I am an iOS user and I really need this. I love the Youtube App, but I can't stand having it auto open to shorts... They are truly mining my brain through this action.


looks great. what's your tech stack and background?


django + htmx + vanilla JS, basically. celery and redis for ETL with my own state machine models.


oh yeah, my background: i'm a former bookseller who taught myself to code html and css to redesign the website. i found i liked the creativity and problem solving of coding and became a software developer. my second dev job was the most transformative: i worked for datamade, a civic tech company based in chicago. they mentored me and helped me grow as a developer, eventually becoming a lead developer. i worked on a variety of cool projects for them...a lot of data engineering and projects that make a difference. they are an excellent company and i was fortunate to work there, but i quit that job last year because i was burned out from a variety of things, including building bookhead in my free time. when i quit, i wasn't sure if i wanted to pursue bookhead seriously, so i revised a novel i had written while i decided whether or not to go for it with bookhead. i was lukewarm on pursuing yet another bookselling e-commerce as a business idea. i've seen firsthand how hard it is being an entrepreneur, but i've been excited about this once i landed on the current product vision last winter.

i'm currently working freelance within the civic tech space, doing devops and data engineering for organizations who are working toward criminal justice reform.


nice, welcome to the party


Thank you!
