Talk:Prograph

message: I have it on good authority (a former employee) that TGS (The Gunakara Sun) Systems was actually the first company and Prograph International the second.  I haven't been able to confirm the dates yet, however.
At http://www.cs.dal.ca/~smedley/veu/particpants/cox.html, Phil Cox states that he and Tomasz Pietrzykowski co-founded Prograph International in 1985 "to commercialise the Prograph language."
The confusion grows....
:You're right. I did some googling and it seems the TGS name was around at least as early as 1989. I'll update shortly. Maury 12:49, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)

message: An anonymous someone at IP address 24.70.193.30 (shawcable.net = shaw.ca = Shaw Communications, handling western Canada) changed the intro text from "However a number of problems in the system, as well as its general "oddity", made it a niche player for its entire lifetime,..." to "Undercapitalization made it a niche player...".
I am not a TGS/PI/Pictorius/whatever insider, but from what I have heard from people who were, the various companies threw an incredible amount of money into the Prograph Developers Network; I have also heard that McLean-Watson poured something like 6 million CA$ into the company after they became involved. Could someone better versed in economics explain to me how this constitutes "undercapitalization". In lieu of any definite evidence one way or the other, I have cut the comment from the article. Please discuss before reverting. RJCraig 19:50, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah RJ, I'm with you. And it's not like I just made it up in the first place, I can remember discussing the system with my fellow developers at SoftArc, and the response was universally skeptical. Perhaps that's not the way it should have been, but with C++ in the midst of its takeover of the development market, blaming Prograph's problems on a lack of cash strikes me as extremely suspect.

Talk:Swaption

thread_title: Lingo

message: Not sure if that is correct. The proper adjectival form of "Bermuda" is "Bermudian", so if it's the adjective you want, that's the correct spelling. Noel (talk) 20:11, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: "Bermudan"

message: The two examples fail to clarify the reason why one would want an option on a swap vs. just a swap - there's a cash flow mention in the first example, and none in the second. The swap hedges the interest-rate contingency - what is the option itself hedging?
Also - these examples suggest that swaps themselves are just bets on interest rate directions. Swaps aren't necessarily pure bets on the direction of interest rates - they are also used to hedge interest-rate-sensitive liabilities without requiring the purchase of large quantities of underlying fixed- or variable-rate assets.

message: The Valuation section needs rewriting; it is poorly written but also doesn't make sense. Market standard practice is to price European Swaptions with Black Model using an implied volatility surface.

Talk:Enrico Fermi

message: Fermi's effectiveness and impact as a teacher is attested in a vast literature, and the account is obviously based on physicists who had him as a teacher. One document (out of the several) of this kind is, famously, the 'To Fermi with Love' material prepared after Fermi's death by people from the Argonne National Laboratory, the US Atomic Energy Commission, and the American Institute of Physics, which shows more than esteem: hence, dear User:AussieWikiDan, what's the point of removing the reference based on 'NPOV violation'? --79.60.3.92 (talk) 04:42, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

message: The Scuola Normale Superiore never provided a "laurea". It is so today and I have no reason to think that was different at Fermi's time. The Scuola provides a "diploma" (not a PhD) that adds to the "laurea" that is granted by the University of Pisa instead. It is only asked to the student to keep a certain average of grades at the examinations to avoid to be expelled. It is also requested a minimum grade for each examination but I am not sure about this. I think that this should be properly fixed in this article. This is very well explained at their site. --Pra1998 (talk) 08:11, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Pillow

message: The article cites a quite informal book in saying that the earliest 'recorded' use goes back to 7,000 BC, without clarifying what is meant by 'recorded' here (writing did not yet exist, even in Mesopotamia and Egypt). It also makes claims about the social status of pillows during this time, citing the same book, and while this might  be true, the actual claims and firm evidence of this appear this was referring to much later in Egyptian and Mesopotamian history.

Talk:Fox Lane High School

message: Not sure about one of your famous people, since I believe the first graduating class from Fox Lane was 1959.  My sister, Glee was in that class.  I graduated with the class of 1970 (along with my old friend Susan Dey), and you ought to include a fairly famous if underated musician from the class of 1970 = Richard Hunter.  He is the son of Evan Hunter, the author who wrote "Blackboard Jungle" among other notable writings which I will let you do your own research on.  But more importantly, Richard Hunter is an accomplished musician and harmonica player par excellance who is renowned worldwide.  He has numerous albums/CDs out and has taught many well known "harp" players how to ply their trade.  He's also a real nice guy.  There are other important and possibly famous graduates of Fox Lane I could mention, but I'll let them do their own "comming out" if they want to. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.68.227.170 (talk • contribs)

replies: text: It's from El-Hamra (http://www.fotw.net/flags/eh.html)Ricardo monteiro 10:35, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, the ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code for Western Sahara is ESH, so this does point more to Español + Sahara, as its former name is "Spanish Sahara". Of course, it's just a theory, I don't really have a source for that. But I must add that the ISO almost always choose a country's code from its name or native name, so the theory that it choose EH from the name of a province does not seem quite plausible. Chanheigeorge 21:56, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

text: It's very unlikely to be from El-Hamra since the el just means the, and ISO 3166 tries to avoid basing country codes on things like that. They would almost certainly have used HA instead, except that they had no reason to base the code on El-Hamra in the first place (since it's only part of the name of part of Western Sahara). Also, if the codes were based on El-Hamra (or even Saguia el-Hamra) then the 3-letter code wouldn't be ESH. So the El-Hamra explanation is clearly wrong. Chanheigeorge's explanation is probably correct. --Zundark 13:48, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
