Nice! I've never heard of those. Pretty expensive for a 10" monitor though, found them on aliexpress/alibaba for ~100$. Adafruit stocks them too for 180$, but with a driver board included.
sorry, error messages are completely lacking at the moment. FWIW you "shouldn't" see any more error messages. The host was down and now it's not.
In my experience that is to some extent a logical assumption though. Most doctors will "fix" you to the best of their ability, it's the life quality issues you really have to fight for.

His suggestion about seals is the most valid point. None of the locks are really locks. A TSA compliant lock that records the time when it was opened might be useful, but otherwise a seal provides a lot more value.

The zip tie idea is fine except that my checked bag is the only place I can put something capable of cutting one.
Can you please explain what this library is for, how is it lite or competing, and how Franz Kafka is related? I just spent few minutes on Readme to understand nothing.
As far as interior or the last generations goes, I agree. Glossy touch-only iPhonization is disgusting. Then again, I hate most newest modern interiors, including that of 3 Series.

However, previous generation of CTS has one of the best interiors I've seen ever.

Good question! I don't have an answer to that. I do know that the markets survived just fine before the HFT companies came along, and now that they're here, I don't see society as a whole any better off for their presence.

Maybe, without just saying "they provide liquidity" and leaving it at that, you can explain how the post-HFT world is better for anyone but the HFT companies?
Visualizing Representations: Deep Learning and Human Beings
The markets in the decades before HFT were crooked like a bucket of fish hooks! They were NOTORIOUSLY corrupt. Everyone was scamming everyone else. The entire market was a giant grift. Are you really sticking up for 1980s trading? Or have you just not done much research about how it worked?
The watch enthusiasts are technically correct, but the colloquial meaning while not technically correct is also a phrase that people can use to effectively communicate the idea to a great many people. So they're technically wrong but language-ly correct.
For a lot of people, AOL was their original ISP given how ubiquitous their disks were pre-broadband.

It's interesting that pre-web, you really had a number of largely non-overlapping online communities (which didn't even intersect all that much within the broad groups). I'm not sure that most people appreciate how fragmented the entire thing was. There was no real universal email for a long time.

Individual BBSs - which also had some shared boards through systems like PCRelay

Commercial "BBSs" like Compuserve, AOL, Delphi, etc.

Usenet which was the only one which was actually part of the Internet.

A point that Kuhn makes in his book is that yes, Newtonian mechanics is still very useful, but relativity demonstrated that it is wrong. That is, Newtonian mechanics implies that we live in a particular kind of universe. That implication is false. No matter how useful Newtonian mechanics is, no matter how close it is to being correct in the situation we're familiar with, it is wrong, and the implications of the kind of universe we live in is not correct. That is huge, as it required that the people who think about this for a living (physicists) had to change how they thought completely.

I recommend reading the book, as he goes into this kind of objection. One of his main points about the paradigm shift is that afterwards, the way scientists think about the problems has changed, and as a result, the kind of questions they ask - or even can ask - has changed.
It seem like a bit of a reach or modern reinterpretation. I think you could write an article based on Byte Magazine Volume 10 Number 13 - Computer Conferencing[1] very much like this one predicting social networks.

Unless you're trading way more frequently than you need to be, the spread is hardly a big deal. If you are trading frequently, than the spread is an opportunity to make money. As someone who trades a lot, I like fat spreads.

My advice to any retail investor though is just dollar cost average into an index fund as a function of your age and forget about it. If you are going to try to 'beat the market' (and worry bout things like transaction taxes and spreads) you will lose.

When people talk about retail traders in this conversation, they are either totally clueless or working in the industry and just don't want to be taxed.

Anyone who says a retail trader should be trading enough to worry about spreads is not your friend.
Just goes to show!

Really? And now, with HFT, they're no longer crooked? If I remember right, in the 2000s we've seen a ton of crooked market scandals (fraudulently rated securities, LIBOR, etc etc). I don't see this relationship you're positing between HFTs and a non-corrupt trading market at all.
Why don't I just let Vanguard, the most trusted firm in all of retail investing, explain that for me? Go look up with their Chief Investment Officer said about the impact HFT has on Vanguard's mutual funds.
> if a doctor is regularly taking 2 standard deviations longer to perform same procedures as the rest of his/her peers, that's a red flag

FYI defining the "peers" part of that calculus is the hard part. Physicians choose their patients. Those that choose low hanging fruit do quite well in metrics. It doesn't require much skill to pick low hanging fruit. It turns out that those who are good at picking fruit from the top of the tree, tend to be called on to pick fruit from the top of the tree.

There are some attempts to do severity adjustment, though these typically rely on diagnosis codes, which can themselves be gamed.

A fairly strong heuristic is simply experience: the number of procedures performed is highly correlated with quality. Facilities often have strongly uniform outcomes determined by senior staff.

Yet the widely recognized most effective way to crystallize the idea, is not via therapy but through rounds of prototyping. Now only if prototyping is as easy as snap a finger.

Coding automation too will help to make better software.

What programmers have done is to translate human ideas into machine understandable symbols, or graphic layout. Not he latter is probably far more difficult than the former which itself can be as hard as NLP and essentially the goal of the almost entire computer language evolution, to improve the effectiveness of translations human ideas to computer understandable symbols.
Its possible the reason is unknowable at this time. As an example one theoretical reason you didn't mention is changing bandages twice as often reduces post-op infections by 75%, although no one has discovered or proven that yet, its sounds possible, and post-op infections are expensive and painful compared to cheap bandage replacement. Minimization of cost of any random individual component almost always doesn't result in minimization of total system cost.

Its important to build robust fault tolerant fail safe systems. By definition, half of all management will be below median. A system designed to give the bad ones maximally overpowered weapons to wreck havoc is not a good system design. Numerology as a weapon can be destructive.

It seems reasonable that as a system it might enable the top half of managers to take three steps forward, while enabling the bottom half of managers to take five steps back, not forgetting the fixed cost due to documentation and processing labor (bean counting) and micromanagement somewhere around a fixed two to four steps back just to gather and process the data, regardless if its used or not. That's a badly designed system.

This is before design criticism along the lines of never implement a system more complicated than its minimal need. Simplicate and add lightness. The substantial money spent counting, processing, and graphing every band aid could have been spent more simply, probably more productively, by spending $X extra on surgeon hiring salary to get a slightly measurably higher class of surgeon... or manager... Or the mental effort spinning around inside a surgeon's brain while cutting could be spent on improving patient outcomes by perfecting incisions or sutures or during surgery judgement calls ... or those brain cycles can be spent on minimization of band aids to meet band aid quota.

Does anyone know if regulations on minimum terms for holding period for stock ever been used/considered in modern markets? (eg. day/week/month?) I realize that it'd effect liquidity in a similar way to transactional taxes (portion of portfolio tied up in term at any given point) but could it also reduce volatility and ensure trading against long term value rather than short term artifacts?
You said: prior to HFTs the markets were corrupt, the entire market was a giant grift.

You implied that, without HFT companies, we'd be right back there, though I see now that you didn't explicitly say exactly that.

to counter, when we just moved to usa, i bought 2000 chrysler concorde for $2000 with minor cosmetic issues (broken mirror, shot hood and trunk springs, dirty interior.

i drove this car for 4 years and sold for..... $2050 to upgrade for SUV since we got kids.

Over time i had to replace water pump, belt, i had issue with hood locked due cable moved from its place, shocks, but it was pretty routine stuff.

i had to do my own research (which is possible to do with cars 10+ years old) - 3.2L engine cars were reliable, while 2.7L ones were crap.

Now I drive 2007 Ford Crown Victoria which I bought for $3400.... full set of brake pads and rotors under $200 :) and can be replaced without reprogramming ECU with simple tools you can get even in walmart :) And being police interceptor model, it is alrighty on the road (obviously can't compare performance wise with bi-turbo bmw engine, but i spend most of the time in the traffic, so ice cold AC is actually what I care about :))

Your reply reminds me of that saying, "Who do you believe, me or your lying eyes?"

If you can't explain it in pretty simple language why HFT-level liquidity is beneficial to society as a whole--to the people working in shops, managing restaurants, dealing in real estate, and on and on--then I'm inclined to think you're just trying to bluster about it.
> For some people, the healthiest reward is the coding. For others, it's working on solving a 300-year old math problem, or struggling for hours and days to find the perfect word for a line in a poem, or a sentence in a novel. There are no "healthier" rewards than those intellectual gymnastics.

More to the point, there aren't any other rewards than dopamine. Dopamine is literally what a reward is in the brain. Unless you're just never going to do anything rewarding, this is inescapable.

> someone who may be suffering from what I can only really describe as coding addiction, the solution may be to find healthier rewards.

If your definition of addiction is dopaminergenic action, then you're simply proposing another addiction here, because you're just proposing a different dopaminergenic action besides coding here.

no, it would increase volatility. People think that volatility increases with trading. In fact, volatility can be very high without trading. Because the prices at which people can trade will fluctuate even more if you make it harder to trade

For your argument to make sense, all forms of corruption would need to have a single cause, and all interventions to reduce corruption would need to impact all forms of corruption. That's nonsensical and not a point I'm willing to engage further with.

I think we've pushed this thread far enough to the right margin of the page.
Not a US exchange, but much more straight forward example is Eurex.

They have 2 different electronic connections based on your latency/throughput requirements. One is more expensive than the other (http://www.eurexchange.com/exchange-en/technology/connecting...). If I remember correctly, the HFT version also requires more onerous legal hurdles as well.

Personally, I view this as a good thing. Why wouldn't we want segmentation in exchange technology?

Pedantic, but that's not a TRS connection.
Also the waste of talent argument is a red herring. People who say that assume the alternative is no financial system in their heads. It takes many fewer people to run many HFT firms than to run one JPM prop trading floor which is the actual alternative.

I get that you're passionate about HFTs, but what's that old saying? Fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again.
I tend to agree that the value of a company doesn't actually change substantially from one second to the next. But to focus on that is to ignore the value of having liquidity available. For an example of what can happen when there isn't enough liquidity, take a look at the graph of RSP on the morning of August 24th.

For a more detailed description of the mechanics and motivation behind market making, I recommend "A High Frequency Trader's Apology": https://www.chrisstucchio.com/blog/2012/hft_apology.html

If traders, be they high-frequency or otherwise, can't make money by making liquidity available, they won't do it. Less liquidity means wider spreads, which means higher costs especially for smaller transactions (i.e. individual investors).

You could reasonably argue that HFT has caused expenses to increase for large investors who need to buy or sell large volumes of shares. But to the extent that is true, it is like saying that large investors used to get on average an unreasonably good deal at the expense of their counter parties. As in any free market, an especially good price for one party is by definition an especially bad price for the other party.

While this is interesting, most of the facts were openly being discussed and are not huge leaps of faith to see coming.

Underground Economies - You had a huge recession in the 1980's. People were not happy with the government and employment spiked to 9%. This idea wasn't a huge stretch considering the political and economic environments at the time.

Computer Hacking - Security was non-existent in those days and a myriad of high profile attacks had already occurred: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_computer_security_... It's a not a huge leap to see that security would always be a few steps behind well organized hackers.

Privacy - People have been talking about the loss of privacy going back to the 1950's and 60's with the Watergate break in. Nothing really big here, only that computers would make it easier to keep tabs on the general public, not harder. Hell, people were already talking about Orwell's "1984" which supposedly predicted a lot of what was going in 1985 - in 1949!!
> Finally, I realized not even students were too invested. When my best friend visited my campus to give a talk, he observed one of my lectures. I've got many shortcomings as an academic, but lecturing isn't one of them. I've been on TV, radio, podcasts — you name it. By professor standards, which admittedly aren't that high, I could rock the mic. But while my friend sat there, semi-engrossed in the lecture, he found himself increasingly distracted by the student in front of him. That student, who like all in-state students was paying $50 per lecture to hear me talk, was watching season one of Breaking Bad.

Well, a lack of investment by students is a plausible interpretation. Another is that the OP isn't as good at lecturing as he likes to think.

If your failover doesn't take extreme slowdowns into account, you've still screwed up.

It's more complicated than just turning off swap. Even without swap, when you run extremely low on memory the page cache will be squeezed to nothing and you'll thrash. And I don't think there's a way to set a minimum page cache on Linux.

So in other words, I would not rely on the OOM killer ever kicking in.

In a situation with more memory use over time a small swap can act as a canary, letting you know you're nearing a performance drop, while a swapless server could suddenly hit a molasses wall without dying.
