pkhamre commented on Ask HN: Games which will help increase my appetite for risk? · Posted by u/afrederico
Rocket League.
It is free and runs on most platforms.
It will take a lot of time to understand and learn how to control the car and the ball, but once you know that, you can go into ranked or casual 1v1-matches. These are the most nerve-wracking matches to play for most people, since your own mistakes often immediately gives your opponent and opportunity to net a goal. The reason I personally think this game is so awesome and satisfying to play, is how you need to learn and develop yourself in both game sense and game mechanics.
The grind of getting the mechanics is worth it in my opinion, but all in all you also have you enjoy the game.
The 5-minute gameplay in a match of Rocket League, especially in 1v1s, will introduce intense and stressful moments for many players. So observing yourself through both how you react and how you play will learn you a lot. Because everything happens immediately, you need to be aware of how you emotionally react to your own failure in order to play your best game. If you learn wisely from your mistakes, it doesn't matter if you win or loose, because you have a better fundamental understanding for future games. Rinse and repeat! Then understand how the same risk and reward principles that applies in Rocket League can be applied to your own personal risk management.
In general, I learned more about learning, and emotional reactions than I ever imagined I would from a game. And especially a game where the objective is to use your rocket-boost powered car to smash an oversized ball into the goal.
Is torrents still a thing? Genuinely curious.
It looks like a cool piece of software with lots of nice features, but I mean.. I don't need, as far as I know, a client-server stack for downloading stuff.
I think this is true. Whenever I’m sedentary for a while I can’t eat more than two meals a day without quickly putting on weight. I don’t understand how it’s possible for people to struggle with putting on weight unless they have a very active lifestyle
It was harder to gain weight from my lowest point after doing intermittent fasting, than starting to loose from my highest point.
At the lowest point I had lost a lot of interest in food and eating and did not have the same hunger. It is much worse problem since loosing weight is only about discipline, but gaining weight is about more than that.

> How and why is that illegal? I am stumped that market participants would not be allowed to correct the capital misallocations of others.
I don't think (but someone correct me as I'm no professional) the occurrence of short squeezes are illegal, unless there is a knowing collusion behind it (check previous cases from courts regarding collusion to trigger short squeezes). What is illegal is naked shorting (https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/regsho.asp) which could be a trigger/condition to future squeezes..
Side note; The CEO of Aterian ($ATER) has tweeted about preliminary data of naked shorts and that they hired a third party company to fight this.
pkhamre commented on Ask HN: Which games do you recommend to improve thinking and reasoning? · Posted by u/behnamoh
Rocket League. It will take a good amount of hours to learn mechanics, but this has been a game that really helped me out on learning routines and then being able to use those mechanics for intelligent plays. It's a lot about decision making and response time.

I think this is good advice but it’s worth mentioning:
1. This kind of thing doesn’t come naturally for a lot of people (myself included)
2. It doesn’t always work even if you do it well. Perhaps the other people are also quite shy.
So the important thing is practice, and to kind of brace yourself going in: “If it doesn’t click with these specific people, I don’t care. This is a practice run and I’ll practice again until it works.”
I’ve found that, paradoxically, one of the things that makes relationships hard is wanting them. When you really desire a friendship or other relationship with someone new, you tend to come off as over-eager or awkward, and that’s off-putting for the other person. Conversely when you can be casual and unconcerned, it makes you seem confident and happy, which other people are drawn to.
So there really is a “fake it till you make it” thing going on, which is quite hard to learn IMO, but can be learned with practice.
Livestreaming on twitch and join discord-communities is a great place to practice social interactions.
pkhamre commented on Ask HN: Best place to live for climbing, skiing and surfing? · Posted by u/0x737368
Norway has great climbing, skiing and apparently surfing.

Can confirm. If you live in or around Oslo you will have access to skiing and climbing by subway, and surfing by car. Not that under-the-northern-lights-surfing tho.
