    FED and Banks

    All comments are simply my uneducated thoughts and might be completely wrong (I never really understood economics like I did math) - so check them with your financial advisor before acting on them. I sure many experts could show me where I am wrong. I believe you have discovered a fundamental...

    If you have a linkedin password change it immediately. (Azure is MSFT cloud stuff I think.) Remember the naked model pictures from the Apple cloud if I recall. Do facebook also while you are at it...

    Windows 10

    WOW. This from "Trust me when I say that I am a pretty advanced user and programmer and tried everything under the sun to save the laptop." I guess I touched a nerve. Choosing computers is not about religion, its about facts. What are you so afraid of? When the power of love overcomes the love...

    Windows 10

    FWIW I have never used Win 10. Unlike some, I prefer to do research before investing instead of jumping in the puddle and then asking how deep it is. Experts can advise you at the techie-type sales places. Get three or four opinions and ask why and why not. I avoided troubles on Win 6 and Win 8...

    Sorry, Einstein. Quantum Study Suggests ‘Spooky Action’ Is Real.

    Today we call it the ONE - as hollywood says - you are the One Neo. Of course if Neo is the One and One is all there is, then who the hell was Morpheus (perhaps spooky action at a distance? LOL).

    Sorry, Einstein. Quantum Study Suggests ‘Spooky Action’ Is Real.

    Thanks for elevating the conversation from - "you suck, no you suck" on some forums. LOL. IMO, Einstein changed near the end of his life when he realized that the impossible must be true. For a man that based all his younger discoveries on "nothing can travel faster than the speed of light"...

    WINDOWS 10

    All of the below are merely my opinions. Sorry for the long post, I could have written 5 times more on what I have found out recently by playing. I have better things to do and testing takes a long long time to be certain. Synopsis: I will be leaving Microsoft products and moving to Mac on my...

    WINDOWS 10

    A question - does your computer work for you or someone else? A test - there is a Get Win 10 flag on my taskbar. I stopped task GWX.exe and then hovered over it. It disappeared. I have control of my own computer - or do I?

    WINDOWS 10

    Some incredible things have happened to my machine and there are some very interesting things to think about to make an intelligent decision. First, I set two "traps" in my previous post and to my small annoyance they have both disappeared. My hacked email account was fixed after 3 years of my...

    WINDOWS 10

    OK. I may have a lead on the most likely problem with Chrome on Win 7. I need to find out whether it is the fault of the webpage I read daily, Chrome or Windows. I have had some fun trapping them a little but I require a lot more time to nail their ip address and entry vector and I am not sure...

    WINDOWS 10

    The curious thing about some Microsoft users is the way they worship that company like a God. Sad. When did love me love my operating system become the way of the dealing with the world? For those who care to research the matter and decide for themselves - The post above clearly states it will...

    WINDOWS 10

    Is this source (Microsoft VP) good enough for you? (There are dozens more). "In a blog post, Windows chief Terry Myerson acknowledged that Windows 10 is collecting personal information about its customers to enable some of its best features, including the Cortana virtual assistant. It also...

    WINDOWS 10

    Everything here is just my opinion. I have had lots of issues with upgrade patches in March, August etc pushing to Win 10. I want to stay on Win 7 as long as possible not because I have anything against Windows but corporations know the shoddy track record of windows system upgrades. I wonder...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    Great news - they are working extending human life so we can trade and assume 100 year mortgages.

    "Jim Simons is Correct About Trend-Following"

    Just by looking at your wins and losses record and sizes, one can get a rough idea of the "class" of system one is most probably trading. I may have posted a bit on the taxonomy of trading systems. I did a big study of them in the 90s when I was looking for the best system. (Hmm. I wonder if...

    "Jim Simons is Correct About Trend-Following"

    Was Mr. Simons nominated for the HFT prize or not? His video comment is quite interesting to me. Some of HFT is stop-running anyways IMO. If one is large how can one trade always in the market without using stops - hmmmm. Of course, the "real game" is now played in the derivatives market (a...

    Jim Simons Trashes Trend Following

    I think HFT has changed markets a lot more than people think - what kind of trend is there in 2 microseconds? I don't understand the emotions in some of the posts in this thread. Reality wins not appeals for and against deities (Simons?). Simons is either correct or incorrect (trends no longer...

    Trading & the Zero Sum Game Debate

    Just for fun I thought I would google the magical dividend fairy edge. What came up was ( on the fool site no less) http://www.fool.com/investing/dividends-income/2014/12/08/walt-disney-co-delivers-a-magic-dividend-increas-2.aspx Who woulda thunk it?

    Trading & the Zero Sum Game Debate

    With respect, you are completely incorrect. I would suggest you go research dividends and ex-dividend dates. After research, if you are still sure we are all wrong here, then here is a suggested strategy for you. Buy the stock on the day a dividend will be declared 2 minutes before the close...
