Cool Shit We're Doing Thread

I'm a cog in the huge machine that needs to run in order to provide bread.

Whatever makes you feel like a big boy, go with it.

What did you think before?

You made it sound like you were in the very top tier of this company.

I wasn't bragging about it. Some uppity monkey started running the prolapsed asshole he calls a mouth talking about how great his job is as lab-bitch, and how he fondly reflects on all the smiles he's caused during his bus-ride home at night. I'm merely pointing out, that a person can find value in a profession that doesn't involve playing with toys all day.

Hmm, I read his post too and just saw it as a guy who liked his job. I was kind of happy for him, frankly.

Interesting though how you took it as a personal affront that someone else in the world was happy and saw the need to try to drag them down to your level of misery. It's pretty pathetic really.

And there are ALOT of buttons. That's like telling a pilot "all you do is flick switches and sit on your ass"

Actually, that's what most of them do.

Well you seem to be supremely confident that $40/hour isn't worth my time.

I assumed you made an income commensurate with your claimed IQ. My mistake.

Yeah, $40/hour is good money. Do you not agree?

Not really, no. But then again I have a social life.

Life

That must look great on your CV. So you became a finance officer with no formal training? Not even Concord Technical College?

So a hobby that generates $40/hour is a sad and pathetic use of free time?

Depends what your hobby is. Hanging out with loser degens in a dingy casino is about two steps above selling crack when it comes to good uses of my time imo.

How much does one make being a douchebag demagogue on the internet?

Whatever your company pays you I guess.

Does your mom count as a friend?

Why, do you want a 75 year old woman as your friend? Seems really desperate.

I mean, I spend a lot of time with her, but I wouldn't say there's any respect there.

She doesn't respect you either huh?

Actually I do. And it's negligible. Lets say you raise to 5BB's and get called by a player with a range of 300 hands. He will call on the flop with only his best holdings, or about 50 hands. You bet half pot on the flop.

Now tell me all about variance buddy. How many hands would I have to play like this for there to be even a 10% chance that I go on even a 100BB downswing? It's virtually impossible!!


Why does sample size even matter?????

There is $30 in the pot. You bet $15. Your opponent folds 75% of the time. What sample size would you need in order to have 100% confidence that the hand is +EV? Serious question, how many times would you have to see that work before you could say definitively that it's a profitable play? What's the requisite sample size??

It doesn't. There's no such thing as variance. Or if there is, it only affects everyone else and not you. Don't worry about it.
