    The tech bubble of the 90's

    Rearden, I have to Respectfully disagree. London is the world capital of hot chicks. 50% of the population are foreigners. It's a god damn shmorgasboard of talent my friend. French, Spanish, Danish, Swedish, Aussie, Eastern Block. Dude. London was the best years of my life. I'm nearly...

So when you do a web search, google actually searches for the information on its own database. The google algorythm is...

    How big is the narcotics industry?

    It's funny. In places of the world where drug use is decrimanised, drug use is usually lower. Holland has one of the lowerest rates of marijuana usage in the world.

    Whats the best instrument to trade swing / over night ?

    Set up another brokerage account and give them the account details of the one you don't wish to trade with. Unless you were involved in some sort of major federal investigation, there is no way they could find out about the other brokerage account.

    NNs for optimizing 4 variables

    Yeah that's the problem. I know the relative extremes of each of the four variables in isolation, but not the optimal values in combination for best trade performance. It's pretty easy when dealing with two variable to use set logic, but once you add the third and fourth variable, it gets...

    Type B personalities

    It would seem to me that being a type A personality would be the worst thing for a trader. Type A people are typically doers. Organisers with a compulsive need to tick things off their 'To Do' list. This type of personality would almost certainly by predisposed to overtrading. And the most...

    i7-900s vs Xeon processors - identical?

    Another thing that may be of interest for upgraders is the choice of motherboard. I went with an MSI motherboard that has this turbo processing technology which safely runs my 3.09 ghz i7 chip at 3.21 ghz. You don't even have to overlock it, it runs like it out of the box. Runningbear
