Don't know why the title was changed to use the provocative "obsolete"; the blog post linked to reads "Files and Folders". I do agree with the article in the general sense. That's not to say that the file syste

Inevitably, there will always be tension between the creative aspects of one's vision and the need for viable product to keep the lights on. SotA is NOT UO or Ultima I-IX. It's a clean slate. Yes, it's good to have discussions about PvP a

Considering how litigious America can be, I'm surprised EA and the other majors have not been slapped with a lawsuit. Under the Uniform Commercial Code, the product fails at least the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a

Perhaps he meant that the people in power generally do not understand the implications of models and their limitations. e.g. when the bank's CEO doesn't know what the quants are doing and how his bank is affected by their models, and doesn'

I'm going to get flamed for this, but promulgating Black-Scholes as the "standard way" to price options is a little misleading. A better choice of word would be "conventional", but that's also inexact because the BSM is broken, since BSM ma
