  • I think coffee shops would be happy with a regular, if you buy something. Otherwise, maybe mix it up, go to different places?

    If the weather permits, park? Either benches or just take a towel to sit on in the grass.

    You can also read in bars, they’re probably pretty quiet during the day, but once again you’d have to buy something.

    Maybe a weird one but churches are often available to the public and they’re quiet, with seating. Might be worth to check with someone there if its OK.

    If they are open to the public, museums or galleries could be a thing.

    Encroaching on homeless behaviour, but if the public transportation tickets in the city are valid as long as you stay on, you could try finding a less used line and just go around in circles on something.





  • No problem!

    Your thinking seems more insightful than mine.

    My reasoning that he is mainly after the money is that in the past year he has been paying a lot of legal fees and fines, while trying to run a campaign. He had his NFT collection which made him a quick buck to then immediately floor in value, same for trump media stocks - except they then skyrocketed again, and now flooring again. So… Just seems like something he’d do.

    The 2nd reason is that crypto is a very divisive topic with loads of people hating on it - including banks and some other financial institutions. I’d expect it’s a double edged sword for supporters, but maybe he’s gaining more from it than losing in terms of votes.

    Considering that it’s been a few days since he made his statement and there hasn’t been massive movement on BTC price, he’s either not influential enough to impact it or I was wrong.

  • Sorry, but I think you’re reading into my words something they didn’t say or imply. In fact I tried my best to avoid wording it in a way that implies crypto is a scam (because I don’t believe it myself).

    What you’ve quoted strictly implies 2 things:

    1. There are people who consider crypto a scam
    2. Everyone will regard crypto as a scam after trump’s future actions.

    The 2nd is definitely an exaggeration, but neither of them claim crypto is a scam only that it has an image that it is - which I maintain it does with a significant portion of people.

    I do think trump picked crypto as a target for his attention because it’s a volatile and under regulated market he may be able exploit to try to make money off of whoever listens to him. I hope I’m wrong though.


  • I didn’t say crypto was a scam, but it is regarded as a scam in general and as you said, it’s pretty easy to get scammed trading it or using it if you don’t know what you’re doing - which would definitely be true for anyone buying in on a public figure’s advice.

    It’s also an incredibly volatile market which is relatively easily influenced by large players without much regulation. If he does have the influence to manage to impact it, I am pretty sure he would happily take his gains from his followers. If he doesn’t, well let’s just hope all the people who buy in without any research don’t lose their money by selling as soon as the next crypto winter comes for a massive loss.


  • What I expect will happen: have his followers buy in at current high price point -> price goes higher -> him and his rich whale friends sell -> price goes down -> the people who just invested because he promised big stonks but realistically can’t afford to leave their money in for years panic and sell -> price goes down -> him and rich friends buy in again.

    Sure, it’s mostly his followers getting scammed, but if this does happen I can’t imagine them not vocally blaming BTC for losing their money - which would likely fuel the crypto is a scam narrative.

    Maybe his words are not influential enough to actually sway the price and nothing will come of it though, but based on the previous things he has done (his NFTs, the truth social stocks) if he has the opportunity to take money from his supporters, he certainly will.





  • I think I misunderstood your problem, I assumed the issue was the volume mounts and after testing it I was indeed wrong - the docker cli now accepts relative paths so your original command does the same as what I suggested. After re-reading your issue I have a different idea of what’s wrong, but would have to see your dockerfile (or for you to confirm) to be sure.

    Do you add 10f.py to the docker image when you build it and do you specify the command/entrypoint in the Dockerfile? There are possibly to issues I can think of with how you do that (although considering the docker compose works it’s probably the 2nd):

    1. You do add it and you add it to /data in the image - when you mount a volume over it would make the script no longer exist in the container.
    2. You do add it and it’s not in /data - in this case the issue with running docker run -v ./:/data -w /workdir tenfigers_10f:v1 10f.py is the last bit - you override the command which makes it try to look for it at /data/10f.py, if you omit it the last part (10f.py) it should run whatever the original command was and assuming you set the cmd/entrypoint correctly in the Dockerfile it should see /data as ./ in python.

    (Also when you run it with the CLI you might want to add -it --rm as well to the docker command otherwise it won’t really behave similarly to a regular command)


  • It works in docker compose because compose handles relative paths for the volumes, the docker CLI doesn’t.

    You can achieve this by doing something like

    docker run -v $(pwd):/data ...
    

    pwd is a command that returns the current path as an absolute path, you can just run it by itself to see this. $() syntax is to execute the inner command separately before the shell runs the rest of it. (Same as backticks, just better practice)

    I imagine that wouldn’t work on windows, but it would on either osx, Linux or wsl.

    Generally speaking, if you need the file system access and your CLI requires some setup, I’d recommend either writing it in a statically compiled language (e.g. golang, rust) or researching how to compile a python script into an executable.

    If you’re just mounting your script in the container - you’re better off adding it directly at build time.



  • For me, there are 2 specific things that annoy me to no end with it. 1 is my guilty pleasure, I love watching hour long videos from Asian channels where they just film restaurants or bakeries making food in large batches. Honestly, youtube seems to actively remove them from my feed. I have to search for them every 2 weeks despite watching this content at least weekly. The second is the opposite. At Christmas I searched for a video of a fireplace with music to put on as ambient background for dinner. My feed is chock full of 8+ hour music playlists now despite never having looked at another one. It’s been 4 months.

    I don’t know what it is but i swear they have content they like showing you and content they dont like. If you want the former your experience will be OK. If you want the latter then they just decide you’re wrong and still get the former.




  • Mine isn’t like that but there can be a few reasons I’d guess at:

    1. YouTube recommends you things other people in your household watch (which can extend to random people if your isp uses cnat and doesn’t give you an individual ip).
    2. This one is more of a guess, but I’d assume a lot of people would click on that content, so if you never watch shorts maybe their algorithm just gives you the default recommendations.
    3. If you watch adult content without protecting your privacy it’s most likely associated with your account in their recommendations.
