Apart from the fine and the notification of the breach. Equifax would have been different because of.

- Consent : " companies will no longer be able to use long illegible terms and conditions full of legalese "
- Right to Access : " Further, the controller shall provide a copy of the personal data, free of charge, in an electronic format. "
- Right to be Forgotten
- Data Portability
- Data Protection Officers

But Europe ( the countries that i know about ) have different requirements rules for credit bureaus all together. So AFAIK there is little incentive for Equifax to hold European data at all.

One reason is that I can use iPython with a decent text editor like emacs. I've tried to make Jupyter work, but it seems like you're supposed to use the web based editor, which is horrible.

But it's also just not a nice workflow. Projects are not linear. I tend to work on a function and get it working in the REPL. Then build up the program by combining together higher level functions. How am I suppose to test functions in Jupyter? Write the test then keep evaluating it and then delete it later?
Tiny bit of data? I can only say this - check out some older NFP releases and see what happens when there is a huge difference between the expected and actual data. During Greenspan's era there was another data point which was monitored a lot. I forgot the exact data point name.

In the current NFP consensus on this one was 181k while the report was 200k which is nearly 10% variation from the expected value.

As for treasuries, the upward movement is expected. It is considered to be a safe asset in the sense that there is a fixed return. Equities on the other hand are considered risky assets. So, for the most part they are negatively correlated. Markets are down, then bonds should go up.

That said, markets and crowd wisdom are not perfect and don't always reflect all the information correctly all the time.
This was always going to happen. Instead of trickle down we should be practicing filter up economics. Give the money to the people that need it so they can service their debts rather than turning the debts into derivatives and isolating them from the real economy.
Had to Google HODL and learned it means 'hold', in the context of crypto currencies losing value.

Can't comment on that, but for stocks, definitely yes. Historically, the market has always recovered from slumps. I know this does not mean it always will, but lots of people dropped out of the stock market after the crashes in 2001 or 2008 - for them, it would have been wiser to hodl.
>Low rates were expected to help kickstart the economy and prices and wages to increase.

You're confusing the sales pitch used to justify low interest rates with what they were expected to do. They were expected to bail out insolvent banks and save them from the consequences of their collective bad decisions. Not raise wages. Not kickstart the economy. Fiscal stimulus is how you do that and they knew that.

Had politicians instead gone to unions and asked "what the fuck should we do now?" the answer likely would have been "let those fuckers go under, fire/lock up all management that had fraud going on underneath them, nationalise the systemically important institutions and counteract the economic contraction brought on by a wave of banrkuptices with fiscal stimulus."

That's no good though because reliable political donors like Jamie Dimon would be in an orange jumpsuit and wages might actually go up (bad for profits). So we got the band aid that was zero interest rates that kept the current lot on Wall Street who blew up the economy and encouraged fraud in a position where they still get to direct it.
I've observed this in more than a few places — teams treating QA as the de-facto tester and gatekeeper that has to find all the bugs, while developers just write code to satisfy their interest in writing code, and not spending a lot of time testing it. I wonder if this is the case in Apple too, where developers just write something without a lot of testing before handover to QA, and QA is pressed for time and/or doesn't know enough to test it well before a release.
> But that's not really a REPL. It lacks the 'L' and often also the 'P'.

This objection is subtle. The "P" in REPL of course does not simply mean to emit some printed representation of the result of the last evaluation, but to emit a specific representation that a corresponding operation, (read), can comprehend.

In that sense, no non-Lisp, including Pharo, has a true "P" and a true REPL. (Though many objects in Pharo do have such printed representations).

> Running code from a text buffer in an editor is one way to interact (many Lisp tools do that),

Like Emacs and SLIME. But having used both, I prefer the Smalltalk browser-based IDE approach. The browser makes code navigation much easier, and it saves you from having to type out a lot of class and method creation boilerplate code like the kind you end up writing when using Emacs and CLOS. Maybe LispWorks (which I've never used) is that kind of IDE, but for CL?

> I would be surprised, if Smalltalk did not have that somewhere, too. The REPL has a visible I/O history and is not conflated with other text input fields (like a function being edited).

Repeatedly print-evaluating (Cmd+P in Pharo) code in a workspace/playground is actually the closest I think most Smalltalks come. A command prompt-style REPL isn't as useful in a fully graphical environment. You could easily create one if you wanted, though, and text-based Smalltalks like Gnu and Amber have one.

However, the inspector in Pharo can function as a nice graphical REPL. You can enter code in an inspector pane, evaluate it with Cmd+G, and the result will appear in a new inspector pane to the right of the current, and you can cycle back and forth through evaluation panes.
>>>Most such rules are in place because slimebags abused the system

While true it was those same "slimebags" that wrote the rules. They made the system complex and convoluted so they could legally do everything they were doing before only now with a full government liability shield protecting them.
>You're making an assumption that because glucose is part of the process, it is essential to ingest it through sucrose, fructose, starches, etc.

No, that's not what I'm assuming or implying.

I'm saying because starch is a highly efficient source of glucose, it has nutritional value.

Nobody who are saying citrus fruits have nutritional value because they are high in vitamin C are implying it's essential to ingest vitamin C through citrus fruits. You can't blame a lemon for not being the exclusive source of vitamin C, neither can you blame white bread for not being the only way to increase your blood sugar.

>Starch(in general) is considered a nutrient, but not because it can be used to produce glucose.

If I've understood this correctly, you can more or less do this in C++ by using voldemort types.

Here's a nonsensical but demonstrative example program:

{
operator int() { return 4; }
operator double() { return 1.5; }
operator std::string() { return "I'm a string!"; }
};
return proof_of_concept();
}

int main()
{
int a = polyret();
double b = polyret();
std::string c = polyret();
std::cout << "int: " << a << std::endl; //prints 4
std::cout << "double: " << b << std::endl; //prints 1.5
std::cout << "string: " << c << std::endl; //prints "I'm a string!"
}

The author never mentioned an electric peeler. The author talked about people using a peeler rather than a knife to peel fruit. (ie. the peeler is a "smart knife").
I hear you, but it's still interesting to think that high inflation expectations means both bonds and stocks down, but much higher inflation expectations means stocks crash and therefore bonds is safe so they go up :-) Put differently, I could also argue that bonds up is irrational given higher inflation expectations and this move up will be short lived. Time to short bonds ;-)

Will check out older NFP, thanks.

> Tiny bit of data?

I phrased it all wrong. What I wanted to convey is a lot of data points slightly pointing in one direction, none of which move anything individually, but at some point people realize that everything in pointing in a downwards direction, and get scared.

Anyway, thanks for the chat.
My issue with smart homes is that they seem to provide few tangible benefits compared to earlier inventions, such as those that are mentioned in the article. An electric whisk will save you several minutes if you're whipping up some cream (more if you're old or disabled), and there are practically no disadvantages. If it breaks, you can simply use a manual whisk.

Smart locks, smart lighting, smart ovens etc may save you seconds at best, and redundancy (code/physical key access, backup light switches etc) are much less obvious, and may make the product less aesthetically appealing, not to mention the privacy/security issues that have been plaguing the IoT market. Perhaps we are, as the author suggests, yet to discover the areas where smart devices will eventually become successful and ubiquitous, but using his approach of finding such areas fails me.
HODL is "hold", but it's also "Hold On for Dear Life".
Here's a question - people often refer to the 2008 recession as a once in a lifetime event. On what basis do they make that statement- because mortgages can't possibly pop as massively twice? What's to prevent another industry (in recent years often rumored to be student loans) from doing the same? Who's to say not another sector is as rotten as real estate was?
I did work experience for Rover many years ago and they had a department that took competitor's cars apart to see how they were built and how much they could build the cars for. Some cars were selling for much more than their assembly and parts cost.

The alternative argument is that inflation is a progressive economic phenomenon, because it reduces the real value of debts (which are mostly owed by the poorer to the richer) and of accumulated wealth, whereas salaries end up adjusting even if with a bit of delay.

What's the reality? Beats me!
Indeed, that's partly what my own testing framework (that I wrote and use on my own private projects) takes advantage of, except in interactive use.

The Common Lisp REPL automatically binds the last expression evaluated to the variable "+". It also automatically binds the value returned from the evaluation of the last expression to the variable "*".

I write code and develop interactively at the REPL with the package under development loaded/running. When the value I expect gets returned from the function or form I'm developing at the REPL, i just evaluate the "test" function (or a variant thereof if extra specificity or features are wanted such as names, doc-strings or tags, etc.), and the forms and expected values are packaged into a test and added to the projects' test repository.

Pretty much all the benefits of TDD, without writing tests up-front or wanting to do red/green (i did allow for the option, but i practically never do in practice), because they're an almost costless artifact of just developing now...

>So here's one for you. If your reasoning is correct I would've expected to see treasuries down (which indeed was the case Friday). Instead they went up. How do you explain that?

Treasuries become risk aversion vehicles during large equity sell-offs. Whatever downward pressure was put on them for a hypothetical rate raise was dwarfed by the fear driven movement from stocks into bonds.

Why into US treasuries you might ask. It's because they are a nearly risk-free way of parking money at a better rate than the money market while maintaining good enough liquidity to easy sell back out of the position.
>> explain if there are rational morality-free reasons other legality/justice/order (incl. preventing further market manipulations, unjustified profits and simple lie) to blow such a bubble up?

You probably want to start looking into market theory. My understanding of it is imperfect but...

What you're effectively asking is for a market to be protected from bad news because investors who invested in good faith stand to lose out. In this case the bad news is news about (potential) fraud and large-scale fake liquidity. The consequences, outside of the morality of the continual diversion of a large amount of honest money to bad actors, is that price discovery is destroyed and the asset is no longer really tied to any underlying value or sentiment. Such a market could collapse at any moment - if the bad actor stops funneling fake fluidity into the market, for instance, then if that's not replaced with new 'real' money the price will still collapse because the support for the price was a fiction.

In a well regulated system the restitution for the (apparent) criminal activity would be by the state - the perps would get charged with fraud, their assets confiscated, and the state and/or market authorities would endeavour to make good the innocents, either by unwinding trades or paying out from insurance or something. In the cryptocoin space... well yeah, regulation bad, insider trading good.

Markets function well when there is transparency and honesty. Without it they distort and bad actors find ways to capture the profits.

Not the central point of the article, but still.

A quality newspaper that writes of German soldiers in West Berlin shows quite a lack of understanding. West Berlin was not a part of the Federal Republic of Germany. Although in many aspects the line was blurred, when it comes to military it was very clear: There were only American, British, and French troops in West Berlin, each in their respective sector. Although Western Germany had mandatory military service, West Berlin didn't.

(As a matter of fact even civilian German aircrafts were not allowed in West Berlin, but that's getting off-topic)

I don't live in the US, and my understanding of how the electoral system works out there is not fantastic, but it would also seem like there's some impact from the existential dread of democrats taking majorities in your mid-term elections.

A lot of the run up since the end of last year was based on Trump's new tax plans, which the left were very much against, so it makes sense that measures would be taken to roll that back were they to be in a position to do so - and I'd expect that people are nervous because (unpopular as Trump is in polls) no-one knows how that's going to go.

It seems (like here in the UK to be fair) that it's going to be a toss of a coin as to which extreme your economy is swung towards in the next election.

Also, new money is entering the financial markets all the time that doesn't have the past experience of the ups-and-downs. People can be well read on the topic and still not have a steady hand when it comes to the first turbulence event they experience with their savings, so there will always be (or at least, has always been) a proportion of panic sellers in the market at any one time.

(edit: This reads like I'm very right-wing. I'm really not, all I mean is that the market has gone up because of the big giveaway that might be snatched back again soon.)

> They were expected to bail out insolvent banks and save them from the consequences of their collective bad decisions.

They were also expected to - and did - bail out homeowners, having taken the hit of losing ten plus trillion dollars in fake housing value. The Fed also took trillions of dollars worth of junk mortgages off the market, dramatically accelerating value recovery for home owners.

US home owners received the largest bailout in world history by a factor of 10. The Fed successfully fully reinflated the housing bubble.

The four giant US banks are making ~$90 billion a year in profit. US home owners gained $20 trillion in fake housing wealth from the bottom, courtesy of the Fed's zero rate asset reinflation party with record low mortgage rates. It's obvious who got the sweetest bailout there.

The big banks love higher interest rates. Their profits go up substantially as rates go up. If they had their way, rates would be a lot higher. Rates have been kept so artificially low, for the benefit of the housing market and the stock market (ie ~100 million of the wealthiest people on earth that reside in the top 1/2 income bracket and own everything in the US).

The idea of an index fund is you're invested in the market as a whole, not a selection of a small number of stocks. So a good index fund will crash when the market as a whole crashes, and recover in line with the market. The entire point is you avoid tying your performance to any selection of say 10 stocks, and typically an index fund will outperform most professional stock pickers.
