"A wise man changes his mind, a fool never will" That being said, high IQ != wisdom. There is truth to your statement though. I suspect there are a disproportionate number of above average IQ individuals here on ET. There are one or two people I've come across here whose IQ really is...

That's a pretty bad IQ test for a number of reasons; I won't go into the specifics but suffice it to say on a real IQ test, I would not score this: <a href="http://www.free-iqtest.net" title="IQ Test"><img src="http://www.free-iqtest.net/images/badges2/l160.gif" width="200" height="100"...

Oops.

The list of vBulletin vulnerabilities is uncountably infinite. Arguably more so if the software hasn't been kept up to date. You could also make the opposite argument and I believe the owner has done just that. It is suprising though that the Javascript exploit worked and hadn't been...

Thanks, the PGM one looks interesting. Also worth checking out MIT Open Courseware and Khan Academy etc.

I am correct. You're a hypocrite; you continue to post on a thread that you told others to ignore. Period. I have no interest in getting into a typical juvenile ET "nurse vs pilot" a.k.a. "mine-is-bigger-than-yours" flame-war that appears to be popular of late, so I'll leave it at that.

Well then, case virtually closed. It's just bizarre he would use his own account after all the trouble of making other aliases etc. to do the job earlier. I realize the other aliases were prevented from using the private message mechanism but he could have still used them, or another...

What's shocking is the lengths of non-sequitur you will go to to distract from the obvious: you suggested threads should not be started for the purposes of getting replies. Here you are presuming to lecture other people on the merits of replying to a thread when you are doing the exact...

Playing Devil's advocate: 1) His machine may have been hi-jacked by some spyware/malware: a) It harvests usernames/passwords on his machine when he types them. b) It specifically recognizes VBulletin-powered websites that are visited e.g. ET. c) It then logs in using username/password on...

So the right kind of thread to start is one where you don't want anyone to reply?

FYI: As an aside, I suspect PyTables might be a good fit for your use case, though I can only guess what kind of analysis you are trying to perform.

Look at Python's reload function: http://docs.python.org/library/functions.html#reload In this case you will want to reload just the module containing your "analysis script". As long as there are references to the tick data objects, it should stay in memory. No, you don't need to...

Beat me to it.

I don't think TradeStation et al. can plot arbitrary time series per se. In any case, there would be no direct connection between R and the platform. You would have to export the time series data to a file and then import it into the platform....but then, what is the point of using R? You can...

The Greasemonkey script I uploaded doesn't exist anymore on that site. I'll upload it again over the weekend and post the link here.

Not quite as impressive as the OP but still interesting: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1355/is_3_106/ai_n6153510/ "The Augusta, GA, native, at 20, is the youngest airshow pilot in the country." "...at 18, he received both a commercial pilot's license and his airshow...

If you're an experienced programmer in a different language then "Dive into Python" is quite good to get you going. If by "little previous knowledge" you mean programming in general then Google for a better answer, it has been asked before. The biggest challenge with Python is deciding which...

'some' doesn't have the same meaning when it's part of a word e.g. worrisome, awesome, handsome, wholesome Those don't translate to: 'some worry', 'some awe', 'some hand' or 'some whole'. Even though 'plentysome' isn't a word, a native English speaker would most likely interpret it as: a...

So then you should be able to get some ideas to make money yourself.
