I can't imagine being so fucking dumb all a person thinks about is political bullshit all day. It is like intellectual stimulation for retards.

Nice. I just watched The Big Short the other day for the first time. I wasn't a fan of Burry but now I understand his eccentricities and love him. Canada barely corrected during the last bubble The Canadians I know could barely afford the houses they purchased with 5/1 ARMS at historic low...

We are an idiot society of people who if still alive would question the intelligence of Richard Feynman and Einstein since they wouldn't have a billion dollars. If you are so brilliant why don't you have this arbitrary round number of net worth says the automaton. It amuses me how stupid the...

I just don't agree that central bankers are going to settle for 4-6% inflation when in the US that has only been the 70s in modern time. Ignoring AI/large language models right now is looking in the rear view mirror. 90% of white collar jobs are either doing a type of natural language...

Brady is 5th in the NFL in yards as his team is racked with injury but tied for the division lead. To say he is having a bad season is pretty goofy. It is especially impressive what he is doing with such a bad TE situation. Geno Smith is the prime example of how dumb most NFL QB talk is. A...

This is the 40+ year old Mike Mentzer debate. Mike Mentzer would do one set per body part and say everyone else is wasting their time. Of course though, he was 70s geared up and a champion body builder with amazing genes. His brother was a beast too. You also couldn't sell magazines with...

I would question based on those charts posted, what does it look like when the spiral is not working? I imagine if you add a random number into the equation it will also look like it is working because working is based on a visual test and not working is left completely open ended.

I think the problem is you are trying to hedge against a move that has already happened and you needed to hedge when you took out the loan. Assuming it is a 5/1 ARM , OTM puts would have been absolutely dirt cheap in 2020 and you would have had a huge cushion for the correlation to not be...

I found this incredibly deep book looking into Ordinary Language Philosophy and Hacker. Very tough going but so unique and it is actually a critique of modern neuroscience.

I just got this book and super interested to understand what went on. Also a new Anthony Bourdain biography - Down and Out in Paradise

They actually took the goal posts out of the stadium and threw them in the river. I can't recall though anyone being trampled when the fans storm the field in the US at football games.

I seriously haven't listened in 5 years so just checked out what they had up on youtube. From a month ago...even more pathetic than I could possibly have imagined. Unbelievable I honestly can't think of an entertainer or artist who has gone to that level of lame and shit like Stern relative to...

I just noticed Salmon yesterday poking around tradingeconomics. This is a CFD of some sort it seems. I just got into eating salmon in 2019 and that does feel like the price move at the store, really sucks.

There is also data science type offerings like Paperspace and Saturn Cloud that are sitting on top of Azure/AWS/Google. AWS/Azure though is probably total overkill for this. Logging into AWS for the first time is a real "holy shit" moment. You would have to at least study for the AWS Certified...

If a person is too obtuse to even try KDE when you can just run it off a thumb drive for free without even having to install it, who cares . MW obviously is a person to put on ignore. I honestly don't want to even know what such a person thinks about markets. There is no way that is anything...

Nothing has imploded yet. I don't see the point in comparing now to Bear Sterns or Lehman collapsing. If you look back at the VIX term structure on Vixcentral, it isn't that much different than right now other than the near months are much depressed compared to the financial crisis. We are...

I think it would be better to remove the post-pandemic move and then compare things. I imagine this is not unlike the volatility of what came after a run up previously and from what I remember. In general though, I see no evidence in markets that decreasing volatility is predictive of future...

Conservatives have already lost the information war to the liberals though. If you are right of a Jacobin you are basically considered a Nazi now. When you have allowed the opponent to frame things in that manner it is game set match. Nazi's were able to control the population with newspapers...

This all sounds like the fantasy of married people. Having to invest 2-3 years of your life into this in late 40s on up would never be worth it. If I was 21 again and would get a huge payout by 25 that would be a totally different story. If you are in late 40s and being a lap dog for years...

If someone is a fan of Critical Theory then it is hardly an insult to say it is a Marxist philosophy. A fan of Critical Theory is obviously a fan of Marx and Hegel.
