@mattpocockuk I’m curious what this skill can offer with regards to learning a new language. (The hard part is still the execution and taking the time to actually learn)

I read Google's paper about their quantum computer so you don't have to.
They claim to have ran a quantum computation in 5 minutes that would take a normal computer 10^25 years.
But what was that computation? Does it live up to the hype?
I will break it down.🧵
@ugmonk Bought one (finally restocked white gather)!
Though shipping is a bit expensive (FedEx intl) so breakeven from discount. (Which is still better)
Would’ve wanted some additional goodies but maybe for next time :)
@officer_secret Hmmm, so I’ve already registered using an email without an alias.
Is it recommended to change the registration email to one with an alias? (Could argue the same for other online accounts).
Thanks for the guides officer! 👮
@spaceagente@Jeyffre Jeffrey definitely tweets some tech writing tidbits every now and then.
Just need to compile it, and having a program with that seems interesting. Just need to iron out the details if it can work for both parties.
Maybe a course, then final output would be a RareSkills article
Alright guys, @RareTalent_xyz has an employer ready to pay over $200k in salary for experienced backend and smart contract engineers. Depending on experience — quite a bit higher. Help us fill the role.
Non-negotiable:
* in Singapore or willing to relocate
* must be a chad
DM me or fill in the RareTalent application.
@Jeyffre Agree. It’s the process, head hurts when you’re overloaded with new information just like your body hurts from being overloaded in the gym.
And it’s the fulfillment after doing the hard work (creating a sample project, writing about what you’ve learned).
@syedasadkazmii@PatrickAlphaC I feel the only valid comparison is between yourself.
As long as you’re making progress, you’re doing okay!
It’s not realistic to compare yourself to others since each one of us has different circumstances.
Quick story on raising your Life’s Floor
Back in the 2017 cycle, I had a close group of crypto friends.
We were able to flip 6 figures to 7 figures. No, we weren’t geniuses. You just had to be there to know how insane that cycle was.
One of the guys, David, wanted to do something crazy. He was going to cash out his crypto, and buy a house in cash.
Me and the rest of the guys couldn’t believe it.
Us: “Bro, this is like getting in early on Amazon and Google”
And on top of that, interest rates were so low back then.
He explained his reasoning.
David once had a business that was successful. He kept re-investing money into it. Then the business died and he was left with nothing.
After it was all said and done, he had to move back to his parent’s home and start all over again.
His biggest regret is he didn’t take profits to permanently upgrade his life.
“Raising your Life’s floor” means improving your worse case scenario.
So this time he wanted to cash out and buy a house. No matter what his worse case scenario was, he’d be a homeowner. He wouldn’t have to start over from scratch.
What happened to me and my friends? The 2018 crash happened and we round tripped all of our earnings.
David? Pretty sure his home has 4x in value at least, and he’s still crushing it in Crypto.
Hopefully, several of you will make some life changing gains.
It’s tempting to want to immediately upgrade your lifestyle. You’ve had a chip on your shoulder your whole life.
You want to buy the Rolex, the new car, and rent the new high rise. You want to show everyone you’ve “made it.”
But the future is unpredictable - especially in Crypto.
Your first order of business should be to find ways to permanently raise your floor.
• This means paying off debt.
• Buying assets such as a home, or funding your retirement.
• Building a year’s worth of emergency funds.
By doing this, you’re giving an advantage to your future self. If you fail, you’ve given yourself a nice cushion to fall on.
I’ve seen way too many people in this space go from riches to ramen.
I’ve had the supercars, and the watches. You feel the dopamine for a few days and then life returns back to normal.
(think about the last time you bought a new phone or laptop)
Nothing beats the feeling of financial security and the peace of mind that comes with it.
