GraphQL: A success story for PayPal Checkout
GraphQL as a complete game changer to the way we build apps at PayPal.
Let's step aside from coding for a bit and answer yourself the following mental task.
'Imagine that you have decided to see a movie where admission is $10 per ticket. As you enter the theater, you discover that you have lost a $10 bill. Would you still pay $10 for a ticket to the movie?'
👍Yes
👎No
I ll explain later where such post is coming from

The result from the previous question is exactly as predicted.
This is explained by something known as Mental Accounting matters. In fact, if the question was a bit rephrased in a form that you loose a ticket itself, not the 10$ bill - your perception might have been different.
Full explanation:
Richard Thaler, a behavioral economist, was the first economist to fully explore the consequences of mental accounting. Although the value of the loss is the same in both scenarios, only 46% said they would buy another movie ticket when they lost their original one. This in comparision to 88% who lost their $10 bill. Buying a second ticket would make the movie seem too expensive, since it now cost $20 in their mind. The loss of cash is not taken into the mental account of the movie. We tend to treat our dollars very differently.

Thought that this psychological trait can be also useful in your entrepreneurial activities (wether IT related or not).
Meanwhile, @coolhunt where I initially shared this project on hacking your brains, got 300+ subs without really advertising it much. If you haven't joined yet - there are pretty cool projects there on UX, valuating business ideas and potential product hunt stuff that is worth your attention.

By the way, adding to the previous post, I want to recommend you another good quality channel as it is likely to cover your interest.
Although AI and Deep learning usually treated as a very complex areas, I believe it can be beautiful and fascinating at the same time.
There is a small channel with triggering name @loss_function_porn that nicely proves it.
It covers latest research in AI and promotes it with a very short, eye-catching gifs. The guy does a good job and is definitely worth your attention.
Give it a shot🔥
