To the best of my knowledge 8 papers were rejected that ultimately won the prize...over 500 Nobel Prizes have been awarded so I am not sure why you expect papers to get rejected at least once.

Again the basis of these rejections were not on the merits (or results) as you suggest, rather, because of issues with names of the papers, backlog, and deferring to other journals which may be better fits for the topic.
Trades get canceled/rejected because the price moves away from their limit/immediate-or-cancel order all the time, even without any HFT involvement. And the reason those orders don't get filled is because they don't reflect a competitive bid or offer for the security. I don't think you're suggesting that we should accept less-competitive orders just because the market participant took the time to submit it.

The only difference with HFT's, and market makers, and all other high-speed/high-frequency participants in the mix is that these changes in price happen more often, which indicates that price discovery is more efficient (has better granularity, recency and accuracy). (Unless the market activity doesn't have 'economic merit', which the SEC devotes a significant amount of time to investigating).

One might argue: "do we need microsecond-level granularity on the price of Amazon?"

I'll take the Matt Levine route and ask: "Do you think quotes should update once per minute? (I suspect most people will say yes). How about once a second? (Yes?) Ten times per second? (?) Every millisecond? Microsecond?"

Now ask the flip side: "Should it be illegal to perform market activity every minute? Every second? Every...?"

It's hard to draw a line with any kind of solid reasoning. As an economy, we certainly reward people who can make these sub-second adjustments with a lot of money, and in general with the stock market, where every trade is, by definition, two consenting parties agreeing on a price, usually making money means you're improving market efficiency.

Also, I want to point out that it's not like HFT's are invincible magic money-stealing boogiemen. HFT profits are declining year-over-year (look at Virtu's recent earnings numbers and their current corporate strategy/direction) specifically because other market participants are responding to their existence and getting smarter about their own order execution.

Someone was telling me yesterday - well after the news came out - that Tesla was going to collapse before WeWork did, because after all - Tesla can't compete with all of the new players coming into the space, in particular Dyson. They looked a bit crestfallen when I broke it to them that there would be no car.

I've regretted every Dyson I have purchased. I have two very expensive plastic vacuum cleaners in my garage.

Unfortunately there are a lot of men who will get a woman pregnant, have her take care of the kids, not marry her. He will pay for everything then later after the kids are out leave her but she gets nothing because they are not married and everything is in his name. Now she has to start from scratch and is middle aged so she doesn't have a lot of time to build a career, pay into social security, has no savings, etc. Why do men do this? Women fall in love with bad men unfortunately. Once she is already pregnant then he has all of the leverage.

The argument is bascially this: the FBI and CIA decided they didn't like Trump and started working against him as soon as he was elected. The FBI went first in trying to remove him but failed, now it's the CIA's turn. I.e. that there is an institutional level effort to remove the elected president not in response to the issues being raised but independent of them.

Some of the argument is better explained in his latest Rolling Stone article "The ‘Whistleblower’ Probably Isn’t":

Perhaps there is something more to an arrangement developed all over the world spanning a variety of cultures. Yes, one aspect of marriage is the business partnership. But there are other aspects to a marriage relationship that can’t be codified in law. Maybe it’s not as necessary with women now having just as much economic power as men.

I'm in Canada and shop at Sobeys, which owns the Safeway brand up here, thought there might be some relevance to me thanks to the .ca domain name. Unfortunately, there was no relevance but it was still an interesting read.

On a side note, Safeway and Sobeys in Canada don't have a loyalty program, instead they piggy back off of Air Miles. All of the special offers available just amount to bonus Air Miles, so they're not actually that worthwhile (IMO).
Ah those were earnest questions, not feature requests in disguise :), especially the second question. I haven't so far had any need for either of those things while using hyperfine (although admittedly I've only used hyperfine for about 3 small projects).

I ask purely as a comparison to some of the design choices bench made for personal edification.

That being said, one of the hypothetical advantages of using criterion is that you get to piggy-back on its visualizations and statistical analyses, which are quite useful for showing friends and coworkers. I'm not sure of the specifics of how you're doing outlier detection, but Criterion's method is quite nice and I find the choice of linear regression for linearly increasing iterations to be an interesting sanity check.

Criterion can work for lower iterations as well (although tens is definitely getting into the lower bound).

The expectation is that all code running on the Tokio scheduler does not block and does not do anything CPU intensive.

Right but intention is everything.

There's a difference between someone who knows you don't have a good relationship with your family and then really just being in-your-face about it (that's intentionally making you feel bad about your family), vs someone who doesn't know.

Yes you feel bad in both cases, but you probably feel much worse when it's an intentional thing.

If you view relationships in these win/loss terms they are never going to make sense. The same kind of logic can be used to tear down other types of relationships—like founder/cofounder relationships, business/employee relationships, or business/vendor/contractor relationships.

All of these relationships will have unequal benefits to the two parties.

As a really close follower of the NBA, I can say they have been starting to show real concern with not wearing out their players, and they have incentive to take it even further. They haven't decreased the overall number of games, but they have been working really hard to minimize the number of back-to-back games, I think every team has had a decrease in back-to-backs each of the last 4 consecutive years. They also lengthened the calendar to more easily avoid scheduling games on consecutive nights.

A recent trend is "load management" where superstar players like Lebron James, Kawhi Leonard, and the Warriors, will sit out a large portion of regular-season games. The thinking is that if their teams are good enough to get to the playoffs without them playing all 82 games, so why risk an injury to your $200 million dollar player for a meaningless game instead of saving their energy for the playoffs?

This makes fans really mad because they pay for tickets to see the star players. Players I'm sure appreciate that it reduces mileage on their bodies and lets them stay fresh and avoid injuries.

The current contributions of all our best scientists, engineers, authors, musicians, etc, are trifles compared to the body of work we are building upon.

The good news is that intellectual property expires after a while. There is no danger the next binary is going to be patent encumbered.

11 out of 30 NBA teams had 100% home game attendance last season. 18 teams were above 95%. There's not that much margin for improvement there.

http://www.espn.com/nba/attendance/_/year/2019/sort/homePct

Edit: I can't find the numbers for courtside attendance, but it's possible that ticket income for the teams at the bottom of that list is either lower or higher than the overall % suggests, depending on how in-demand the highest priced tickets are.

> I don't have the house rules handy

Then maybe you ought to grab a copy and find the violation, if it's existence is the entire premise of your argumwnt.

> but as I recall impeachment hearings are dependent on a vote to begin the process.

“Impeachment hearings” usually refers to hearings on one or more drafted articles of impeachment conducted by a Committee (usually, the Judiciary Committee, though historically there have been some exceptions, and the only reason the Judiciary Committee gets this role is that most impeachments are of federal judges since they are both the vast majority of impeachable officials and the only officials that cannot be involuntarily removed by any other means short of death.) The House rules, however, have no special requirement for a vote to begin impeachment or other hearings (“impeachment” does not appear in the House Rules at all, nor is there any general requirement to vote before holding hearings; there is a requirement for hearings before certain matters go to a vote of the full house, but that's only for bills and joint resolution, and adopting articles of impeachment is neither, so neither is a vote required for impeachment hearings by house rules nor are impeachment hearings required for impeachment by house rules.)

What is presently occuring is inquiries by various Committees on subjects within their jurisdiction which will refer any findings relating to impeachable conduct to the Judiciary Committee.

> Unless I missed a news story there hasn't been a vote of the house to begin impeachment.

The only vote the House seems to be required to take on impeachment would be on whether to adopt articles of impeachment, which is the end, not the start, of the process in the House.

As a matter of practicality, there would almost certainly be votes in various committees and possibly the whole House on other steps before that. But that's not a matter of requirements in the rules.

Telling someone "this isn't interesting to you" in place of "I don't want to talk about it" is definitely not polite!
