Go learn to invest. We're very close to the start of mass blockchain tech adoption, specifically, the smart contract revolution so now's a good time to jump in. Start off $0.00 and use the free crypto on Coinbase to play around with understanding how to move cryptocurrencies up and about. And I'd recommend this video lecture by a principal engineer of Oracle to give you some direction of what to learn in the tech world.

this pic was just forged solely to make most socially awkward (hell even normal people) feel bad because dont most people walk like this lul (with/without the shitty posture)

The Virgin/Chad meme initially started not to insult but as a joke where you contrast an action done by someone somewhat awkward and low confidence but was relatable (especially to the audience for whom it was initially created) with another action that is super overzealous, exaggerated, and flooded with overconfidence for a humorous effect.

But the internet does what the internet does and so they ran it into the ground and devolved it into "Virgin What I don't like"/"Chad What I do Like", thereby missing the point completely.

Most employers don't give a **** about grades and GPA. Perhaps from what school you got your degree from, but that's about it.
Most of my post was talking about how you're penalized for failing while in school. And I'll concede that it depends on what kind of project it is and how far up the chain you are. If you're the lead of an architectural project that goes south, that's your reputation going down the drain. On the flipside, businesses kick the bucket all the time, not everyone gets tied to debts. I can point to companies with leads who have failed projects under their belt. It's on par for the course that you will have duds. That's why you want to learn how to fail and fail fast.

At the end of the day, you're your own Boss. You have the right to say "NO, College isn't for me". And go straight into the work force. There were also Trade Schools for those who wanted to specialize in certain fields.
The people targeted are kids right out of HS. The most ignorant, overwhelmed, and malleable of all adults, with zero commitments. The rise of colleges as a mandatory path was an orchestrated effort by the government and banks with the college institutions. The government backed loans (I think they stopped this recently?) and the fact that Congress passed a law preventing you from defaulting on student loan debts is proof of this.

People generally aren't risk takers; most people would stick to a safe path others have left out for them. And people have been told all their lives that college is the next step all while trades and alternative avenues are being downplayed.

You took too many courses simultaneously, you should lighten up your schedule.
This is on par for an engineering track. A lot of people can tell you, because of the work load it's studying to pass, not to learn. Everyone goes through that experience of constant workloads and no sleep inbetween.

You're supposed to fumble, fail, and experiment in college before you get to the job.
Failing in academia is completely different from failing in the industry. If you fail a class, you're penalized with having spend a few months taking the course over, even worse if you needed that course as a prerequisite as then you're at a standstill until you complete it. And the failure is on your record for all to see. In the industry, you're free to do as you please if you screw up. This is important is it allows you to jump from executing idea to idea without being tied down to any innate obligations. Even better, if you screwed up and got fired, there's no record for everyone to see. Just don't talk about it. Learning how to fail and bounce back is an important process and necessity in life and academia discourages and teaches people to fear it.

Crying about "Oh tuition is too expensive for me to fail" or "It'll hurt my GPA" are all excuses that only show you don't belong in college.

First of all, society spent decades telling everyone to go to college and that you need a degree to be someone. Any other plan was considered second class. If there wasn't constant societal pressure to the point where people are only now reassessing the value of school education and if it's really worth going into debt slavery thanks to the pandemic, you'd have a point.

Moving on, I disagree with the entrapment. In college, a lot of times you're not learning to understand the material, you're learning to pass the class. When I did my degree, I was constantly overloaded with problem sets upon problem sets, all of which took hours to do, each. There wasn't enough time to sit down to full delve into each topic. I learned what I needed to learn to do the HW and pass the exams and moved on. At the end of it all, it damn near killed my curiosity till I learned the same material on the job but was better able to take it in because I was allowed to fumble, fail, and experiment my way all the all through. College is hands down the WORST environment to learn things; no one gets to the top without failing and college penalizes you for failing.

I understand that is position could be somewhat different depending on what war we are actually talking about, but in the case of Vietnam, there simply wasn't an excuse to support a war that drafted millions of young people. I'm not saying I would have been more supportive of the Vietnam War if there wasn't a draft (I was against the Iraq War for instance, and old enough to understand why at the time) but there were just too many young people have their lives ruined or even ended because of that draft. It didn't help that as you said there wasn't a clear objective in the war, and in fairness the Democratic Party actually got us into the war at the first place. Liberals aren't clean on this issue.

I will say, unless you have assets or built up some networth in crypto, you should be damned proud of the US for going in there to shutdown the chance of Iraq creating weapons of mass destruction.

Strong family structures is beneficial for everyone. Parents have more time on their hands and are less stressed in taking care of their kids as they can allocate responsibilities to their parents. Grandparents will live healthier and happier as opposed to being taken care of in a nursing home, and children will have more exposure and consequently gain more life experience through constant and consistent interactions with 2 generations of people in their homes. Most importantly, wealth is generated as a familial unit, in other words, you have a stronger chance of creating greater wealth with the support of your family than by yourself.

It is in your best interest to support and stick with your family. If you can support a large family, even better.

I don't see buying properties as a good idea right now. We haven't really hit the stride of Corona-chan hurting the economy, where the weight of how so many people can't afford their rent is felt across the board. I know in my area, my Governor is sweating over what's to come in July, where the government could potentially not have enough money to pay their employees. Likewise, I'm not at all bullish on the stock market as a whole, it's acting completely out of the realms of reality where the unemployment rates are skyrocketing yet the stock market is "doing fine". That doesn't make any sense. Banks, know that the reserve ratio is at 0% instead of the already super low 10%, so they can lend out all of your money. There's a risk of a bank run where everyone could try and draw out their money and banks won't have enough to service everyone.

But it's not a group once they've been eliminated! The choice at that point is 50/50. Maybe when all the doors were in play it was whatever the odds were originally but it's now 50/50 since only two choices are left.


There are a bunch of responses since you last posted this but I think main focus should be on convincing you, using the 1000 door example, that the doors chosen by the host still matter for the probability. What this means is that your door is a 1/1000 chance of being right while one of the doors the host leaves has a 999/1000 chance of being right.

How is it not a decision? You switch or you don't. That is a decision. All others have been eliminated. Then you have to make a decision and since it comes down to only two at the end, I'm either right or wrong. Now, if it wasn't only two doors at the end I might see it but as it is I don't.


I suppose I had poor phrasing there. It's a decision but not an even decision. Not an even decision in a sense that it's not 50:50. It's 1:999. But do you accept my point in that your door's percentage chance is 1/1000 when you first choose? And your door is still 1/1000 after the host eliminates the doors?

Maybe it's because percentages were never my strong suit, but I still fail to see why I should switch when it eventually comes down to one or the other. Honestly, if it was more than one door left alone I could see it but I just don't see why when the final choice is ultimately 50/50. I don't get why it matters what the probability was before, it is no longer that once all others have been eliminated.


That's the thing, it's not an even decision. You have a 1/1000 chance of picking. The host, knowing where all the goats are, consequently knows where the keys to the dream _____ is. So he is in control of the 999/1000 doors. When he opens the doors to the goats, the percentage chance of your door being right doesn't change. It's still 1/1000. His door, because it's lumped with the eliminated goat doors, is a 999/1000 chance of being right.

We have this one hill that everyone climbs up for exercise, takes 20 minutes to climb up and is pretty steep.

This was around 6:00 PM when everyone was doing their exercises. Then I decided for my next walk up, I'd get there around 8PM off hours when no one was around. If it's one or 2 people, I'm not going to have my mask on. There's a constant breeze filtering the air and I'm keeping my distance. But on my walk to the climb, if I'm running into a person every few minutes or so, I'll put on my mask as I pass them by.

Going from 100+ doors to 2 doors isn't really the same thing. You were most likely going to pick the wrong door before, and going down to 2 basically reveals the right door, since your first pick was very unlikely to get the right door. There's no reason to not switch after such a huge change in probability.


The purpose of using arbitrarily large numbers is to help visualize the thought experiment. While it's not intuitive, it's always in your best interest to switch doors after the host opens the other door(s) with goats. The more doors opened, the larger the percentage chance gain when you switch doors.

Using arbitrarily large or small numbers in general is how mathematicians and other theorists visualize and conclude their derivations. This is the heart of what taking the limit is (take the limit of Y = f(x) as x approaches _____ ).

Yeah. All the other wrong choices have been eliminated. I am either wrong or right at this point.

Here's the thing, you have a 1/1000 chance of picking it the first time around. When the host comes in, he kills 998 doors, all of them incorrect with a 100% guarantee. And he leaves one door alone. Remember, you had a 1/1000 chance of picking the right one, what would the percentage chance of that other door be? Remember, the total probability of all choices has to add up to unity; 100% or 1000/1000 if you will.

If you go looking for the picture then you have issues


With that kind of attitude, you'll get manipulated too easily. You gotta be a truth seeker. Lemme give you a tangentially related story.

In my community's usual research and daily news of Chainlink, we saw a new partnership. Celsius Network. A project that wants to be THE bank of crypto and the Chainlink team was going to stake some of their assets in CN's network. Is this is a possible company to invest in if we were to ever look for another company to throw our money at? Dunno, let's find out. So naturally, the community Googles every single member of the company to vet them. Among them, the CEO is Alex Mashinsky, inventor of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), incredible. But more glaringly, what eclipsed the discussions at the time, among them is this one girl... Literally on the first page of a Google search was a porn video of her. And she had quite the title in the company (paraphrased) a lead in institutional lending where she was managing a portfolio, hundreds of millions of dollars worth of assets.

So naturally, people would be up in arms that someone, who lacked the foresight to think doing a porn flick was not a good idea, ended up in such a position where we have to be associated with. So the news spread like wildfire and some twitter personality reported on it. Then, out of the shadows, Jane Doe appeared! And she made the claim that the video was a creation of sex trafficking and pulled up the court claims to back up the case that the creators of the video preyed on women. So was the community collectively in the wrong and this girl truly was innocent? Why weren't people taking her seriously? That's when I dug for myself the porn video to see what's up.

No. Heavens no. Not in a million years. Sure, the court claims could apply to the other girls. But not "Jane Doe" in question. The first 8 minutes of the "plot" (the interview) killed any chance she had in convincing she got ployed. From the video:

"What's your name?"
"Uh......" *Says real name*

"Why did you sign up with us?"
"Cause I just wanted something fun to do"

"Are you nervous"
"No not really"

"What are you studying right now?"
"Uh... business? I don't really know..."

And while other videos had girls who clearly looked visibly uncomfortable, she was enthusiastic. She was a PRO. She was ON POINT. No one is going to believe her case personally, not with that spectacular display of airheadedness and that performance.

Anyways, the point is to do your due diligence and investigate. Find the truth. If you're going to be insecure on how you'll be perceived looking into something, you'll only hold yourself back.

The only reason why I know about this is because everyone pays attention to everything in the business/finance world; the father recently passed away so the story was brought up again.

Can you elaborate on this? Im curious.

Wealth in general, while there is wealth creation (thanks to possibilities afforded by the cellphone revolution and previously the internet revolution), there is wealth transfer. A quick example is how Amazon exploding to be the #1 e-commerce platform and consequently putting malls and other retail outlets on life support. You can say wealth is a zero sum game at times.

But onto how people screw each other in the stock market. I'm sure you've heard of a "Pump and dump"; this is where someone would rally others into investing into a stock to pump the price only to have that person dump his holdings (usually much larger than the buying interest) which would crash the price, leaving newcomers with a worthless stock; i.e. money wasted.

This happens ALL OVER. I have a podcast I listen on occasion of a hedgefund manager (the terribly neurotic James Altucher) who ran a billion dollar fund who bought into an investment because of a bonafide billionaire told him to. Said billionaire sold off his holdings and made a pretty penny as a the company folded leaving said hedgefund manager distraught and betrayed. The energy company Enron, the Executives on the board sold off their holdings months before they announced the company's true financial situation. Those actions put them in jail save for one executive who sold off his holdings through court to settle a divorce. In crypto, this went on constantly, especially in the 2017 golden bull run where everything was pumping and everyone was creating new projects to get funding for on Ethereum's blockchain.

Conversely, there are times where people spread misinformation to lead people to believe a project is a scam to avoid it. 4chan was NOTORIOUS for this regarding Chainlink. For 2 years straight, 4chan led reddit to believe that Chainlink was a scam. During that time, the price was $0.30-$0.45. What's the price now? $3.85 at the time of this post. And they're still not aware of what the project is about and why 4chan vehemently keeps them at bay. Spoilers; Chainlink is the internet equivalent of blockchain technology, monetized.

This is why I'm not big on race relations. People will support their own first and foremost. If you're not apart of the group, you're going to get passed over for those in the group and those they're willing to admit into the group. The reason why this is so is because it's more economical to have people similar to you to improve the likelihood that you share the same ideologies which is needed to collectively preserve and build wealth and power. Ultimately, I think for black race relations to have a positive conclusion, black culture will have to kowtow to the rest of the country's so everyone can better relate to one another.

I was a democrat, then I learned about investing, specifically on how badly people screw each other out of opportunities. Now, you can hear me shaking my cane from the porch:

" CLOSE THE BORDERS!"
"BRING MANUFACTURING BACK HOME!"
"STOP GLOBALISM!"
"GIT OFF MY LAWN"

I grew up on and still live in a predominantly black community so it'd be easier for me to list out how many of my teachers weren't black. But in my College career, I had probably one black professor that was STEM, my math professor that taught me Ordinary Differential Equations.

How the fuck can you see below someone's waist when you are in a car next to them?
I came into the topic asking that. From the OP, he would line up with other female drivers, get their attention to see it so he could furiously masturbate. I assume he knows how to line up properly, or he just has a big member.

Depends on the last name, if it sounds cool. But my last name, while generic, has weight to it. She'd have to bring something to the table to make me consider.

remember that dave chappelle sketch where he was like "what if they treated black people like white rich people when they arrest them?" and with the black guy the lawyers were apologetic and sad about the whole thing, the cops came in and gently escorted him, and even scheduled the damn thing and told him not to worry about

and then with the white rich guy, the cops bust in, beat the shit out of him, and even shoot his dog?

(i may be misremembering some of this)

pretty sure what TC posted is what he was poking fun at.

I used to have a lot of respect and be at awe of people who worked multiple jobs. Then I found myself maintaing 4 jobs at one particular time. Then I realized people who flaunted working multiple jobs to show they were hustlers or whatnot were full of crap. What matters isn't the number of jobs you have but the number of hours you spend working a week. If you're only getting 10 hours a week at one job, chances are you're going to look for another job to compensate for the low hours (and consequently lack of pay). (And yes OP, I'm aware this has absolutely nothing to do with you, I just felt like stealing your soapbox to rant)

In the case of this pandemic, if you could find a job, let alone multiple jobs, more power to you TC. Everyone is hunting to fill up their hours and get paid.

I'm not seeing the problem here. Though I don't see the point in why she wanted to dress up like a princess... okay framing it like that makes it understandable.

Haven't heard of the fourth industrial revolution
It's the combination of the adoption of blockchain technology (smart contracts specifically), IoT, and AI. I don't have a condensed version (and I only focus on learning about blockchains specifically), but if you have the time, this hour long lecture by one of Oracle's leading engineers is very good

This is an interesting topic. I'm on the verge of quitting my job cause I'm learning next to nothing, but I have my eyes set on the blockchain industry. Have you been looking into the Fourth Industrial Revolution to see how it would affect your job?
