I hate politics and just can't imagine being one of these crazy people that hate Trump but at the same time have no life other than bashing Trump. How can any thinking person find Trump interesting in 2022? Feels like we are just drowning in retards.

The problem is that you can keep pealing layers of the onion if you drill down. If you use ticks on ES what about order book? If you use ES order book what about the options chain? If you use the option chain what about the option chain order book? If you use the option chain order book what...

Maybe if my blood work looks bad at 65+ I would consider it but taking metformin for 30+ years is insane to me if your goal is to live as long as possible. You are basically betting on a type of free lunch and racing to be first in line to see what the consequences are. TRT from 50 to death...

There is no supplement that is even going to be close to calorie restriction, weight training and getting your VO2 max as high as you can. Drugs like metformin have a risk of having no clue what the effects will be from 30+ years of using the drug. Testosterone replacement is the only thing...

Just to play devils advocate for the UN, I think her plan is completely crazy but she must think the current path we are on is worse. I think when she says we don't know how long and deep a global recession will be really means the UN economists think we will have a long and deep global...

We are in like fall 2000 that everyone knows the party is over but everyone is massively hung over and in denial that there isn't going to be another bash like that for some time. It is a much worse spot than 2000 though. Much like partying as hard as in 2000 but now you are 20 years older and...

All this is a side show. Russia is getting exactly what it wants from this war. Ukraine is being obliterated and oil and gas is being kept high. They aren't going to use nuclear weapons when they are barely even using their air force. It seems super obvious that Russia wants us to believe...

Worrying about tweaking linux is 20 years outdated. Unlike Windows that can add every dumb feature no one wants imaginable because of the monopoly, linux has actually had massive competition within the ecosystem and the dividends are self evident. People today use the winners of 20 years of...

No worries. The free ATM for all these assholes at tech companies is over. They are going to have to actually worry about profit and not dog sitters, gourmet vegan lunches and "misinformation". It is hard to blame them though from becoming completely divorced from reality after a decade plus...

I don't disagree but that is also exactly why annualizing is not painting a realistic picture with 9 months of samples. On a yearly basis it is trying to draw statistical conclusions from 1 sample.

I was going to say I think the period is .8 something if the risk free rate is zero. For a risk free rate of 3.1 you would just subtract .258 from each return before averaging. .8 sounds right to me as if those represented yearly returns it wouldn't be all that. Of course, if this system ran...

Our regulators are just a complete joke and captured. The senate banking committee sent them a letter almost a year ago and nothing ever happens. It is outrageous considering they would be the 44th largest bank in the US.

It works great on Kubuntu but I usually just end up using the web interface anyway for order entry.

Nice. I tried Xfce but KDE Neon is just prettier and everything is ultra fast with the animations turned off. There just isn't much fat to cut off if at all with the animations off. I really like having a user account that is not for screwing around surfing the web but for productivity. That...

I tried to make a twitter account for about the 10th time but it is just so hard with how toxic the platform is. Steve Hanke posts some interesting things on global inflation but then this morning the feed is literally things on fire. Cars on fire, people protesting lighting things on fire...

I put on a swing trade long late Friday at $133.22. I love React but hate everything else about this company so just held my nose. Looking for a bounce and then sell to dip buyers who have convinced themselves there is value here at this price. Long term, I just think the metaverse is...

I wouldn't even consider using anything else besides KDE at this point. If you haven't tried it yet, for sure go into Settings/Workspace Behavior/Desktop Effects and then turn everything off besides Translucency. KDE is so fast with animations turned off. I always change the Global Theme to...

Yea sorry, I was trying to be cute in some sense but there is so much nonsense in this thread about C++. No one is writing python in a text editor and then running it directly in the interpreter with no libraries for anything of consequence. The whole point of not writing everything in assembly...

Same here. I have water, a cup of coffee and 50mg of a caffeine pill. I eat some nuts or something small around 1 or 2pm and then eat my meal at 4ish. I use to not be able to imagine working out fasted and now I can't imagine working out not fasted.

It looks like they have only shaved 200 billion so far https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/WALCL September looks like they reduced by 30 billion. They are certainly not doing a 100 billion a month. Fed Fund futures though haven't been pricing any rate cuts for a bit like they were. Market right...
