Is the "thinking" dropdown option on gemini.google.com what the blog post refers to as Deep Think?

Are you also from Finland? Would love to share stories and insights! You can find my contact info on alexhanh.com, if you are interested to talk. :)

Great points. Ultimately, it seems to boil down to deferring tax to the future instead of the present resulting in higher gains for everybody, and having the freedom to choose on h…

Comparing an educated crypto investment with a negative EV gambling game seems a bit too farfetched. I'm quite considerate and picky investor, and did extensive research beforehand…

This is always a good reminder. Then again, had I not done that investment or cashed out earlier, that 20k€ would be nowhere near 1M€. There simply doesn't exist many ways to achie…

Wow, this advice is very valuable. I'll definitely investigate. Thank you. Another interesting discussion is the ethical side of things. I do feel some obligation to pay back to my…

I did some calculations about owning your own apartment vs renting. At least in Finland with the current housing prices and interest rates, the difference in a 25 year period betwe…

Great advice, thank you. I'll prioritise increasing this amount in the near future.

So easy to say in hindsight, right? I try not to be too hard on myself about past decisions. I bet you did the best decision you were capable of doing with the information you had …

In Finland, the capital gains on cryptos are realised once you sell them for floating currencies (ie. USD or EUR). We pay 34% tax on the profit. For example, I'd pay (1M€ - 20k€) x…

I didn't have any magical crystal ball, like no one else did. The key transition point was moving the Bitcoins into the Ethereum. For me, Vitalik's early posts convinced me that Et…

Ethereum seems to have great potential to multiply its value in the next 12-24 months. I think the probability of ETH going from 1B$ -> 2-5B$ market cap is far greater than BTC goi…

Just turned 30. Invested most of my savings (20k€) into Bitcoin several years ago, and then converted everything to Ethereum in the pre-sale. Those 20k€ are worth roughly 1M€ pre-t…

Here's a backgammon bot implemented in practise https://github.com/alexhanh/Botting-Library for anybody interested. It also contains highly optimised Blackjack bot. PartyPoker had …

Looking for general advice on things like handling the acquisition process, approaching potential buyers, handling negotiations on terms and valuation and to finalising the buyout.…

Would love to hear your general thoughts on Modafinil. One of the things they say is that it has minor side-effects and that tolerance builds up really slow, if at all, in comparis…

The expected value for this bet is $1,000,000,000/4,294,967,296 ~= $0,23. Say, it takes 10 minutes to make the bet. That would compute to the average gain of 6*$0,23 = $1,38/hour. …

Great stuff! Seems like the store_accessor works with the :json column type out of the box as well. Throw in a JSON schema validator and we have full-blown validations for :hstore …

Care to expand how? Curious as a Rails developer myself.

My girlfriend has Ankylosing spondylitis. The exact cause of the continued inflammation is unknown. It has been hypothesised that the cause is a gut bacteria feeding off of gluten/…

It took some time to get used to, but now I don't even notice it. Totally worth the adjustment period. New people always seem to comment how orange/warm my screen looks.

Thank you for posting this. I was wondering why the version number on Mac still was 23.0 after the update.

Up until now, how has the typical animations you see on landing pages been achieved? Is it all manual animation via code?

Great plugin! Is there something similar for AngularJS that supports input limiting and formatting?

How do you deal with something like SSL and canonical URLs with SEO in mind? Thanks!
