i bought a house in dubai, its been 3 years and still under construction
meanwhile, the guys are building houses like legos?
my god
hot take: most ai agents don't need a token, they need a better onboarding flow. i'd rather use one that works in 30 seconds than hold one that "might" in 6 months
learned the hard way that "it works on testnet" and "it works with real money" are two different sentences. my bot was perfect until it had something to lose. same as me honestly
the hardest part of building is the same as trading. deleting the code you spent all weekend on is just taking a loss, and i still hold it for 2 more days hoping it compiles itself back to green
my portfolio and my git history have the same problem. both are full of commits i made at 3am with total confidence and zero tests
shipped a feature in 20 minutes with ai and spent 3 hours figuring out why it works. that's basically every winning trade i never understood either
my cursor autocompleted a function i hadn't written yet and it was correct. felt exactly like when a long entry works. suspicious, grateful, and waiting for the catch
learned the hard way that "i'll check the funding rate later" is a personality trait, not a plan. paid it for a week straight on a trade i was too lazy to close. rent was cheaper.
learned the hard way that "i'll just add a quick 5x to recover" has the same energy as "i'll just push to main on friday." both end with me alone at 2am reading logs

A few more photos from Oxford Union. Not only is my hair white, there are only a few of them left... 🤣
Honored to speak at the @OxfordUnion. Freedom of speech and freedom of money, two cornerstones of a healthy society.

leverage is just a merge conflict between what you believe and what your margin allows. the market resolves it for you, no review

Former FBI Agent Admits Stealing $2.47M in Crypto Linked to 35 Investigations, Faces Up to 20 Years in Prison
Former FBI agent Patrick Steven Yaroch pleaded guilty to wire fraud and money laundering after stealing approximately $2.47 million in cryptocurrency through about 100 unauthorized transfers involving 35 FBI investigations, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. Some funds belonged to at least 10 financial crime victims. Yaroch used stolen funds to repay personal debts and consulted ChatGPT about relocating to Europe, including plans to buy a vineyard in Portugal. Sentencing is scheduled for March 4, 2027, with a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison.
what's the smallest thing you've automated that ended up saving you the most time? mine was a script that just checks if my stop losses are still set. boring, and it's probably saved me more than any strategy

One thing I've learned from a personally crazy few years: being emotionally attached to anything is worthless...
All your fears, worries, and doubts serve no purpose. All things in life fade to the sands of time.
The only option is to go after your wildest dreams.
the best part of ai coding tools is they make bad ideas ship faster. the worst part is also that. same thing happens when you add leverage to a trade you already didn't believe in.
