Yeah I can make a cotton gin and a horse drawn carriage in 2015 . When something is created has no fixed or forced relationship to the effective age of the underlying technology.

I find it immensely entertaining that Rudis created his own federal reserve inside his school and immediately abused the monetary system to "buy all kinds of sweet stuff." You should have gone into politics @Rudism. You would fit

For some reason New York City is unable to keep a couple of 1970s train cars in motion cough L train . Given this fact is unlikely to change I see the move towards more bike heavy infrastructure as a good move. Citibike has done pretty wel

Yeah it would be nice if they actually said what the software does on the github or in the headline. At first I thought it was a browser or something. Here's the one liner though: "Lantern is an Internet proxy tool that lets you a

Unless your costs are greater than 2 billion? I mean then you could make 2 billion in revenue and not turn a profit. ( 2 billion - (# greater than 2 billion) ) = (negative #). This is a very basic concept.

You know what would make the examples really legit? Instead of generic names the community could use names of famous people.

"Dear Humans, for the last several centuries you have used many different mental strategies to try and make decisions. These seem to have produced a generally optimal outcome (ignoring the genocides) with globally increasing standards

Burrito based decision making is clearly the way to go.

These kind of seem like general rules for leaving any job.

This kind of thinking is seriously dangerous. This is why burden of proof rests on the state. What something "appears to look like" is irrelevant to the actual crime. That's like saying running from the cops proves your guilt

People here are commenting that he stole code. That that's why Goldman is prosecuting but what constitutes stealing code? I mean the definition is "loosey-goosey-bullshit" at best. I used to work building trading algorithms;

I completely disagree, the type of craftsmen you're referring to will cease to exist at the company in the future. The very concept of craftsmanship is antiquated by the idea of intelligent machines. That is, machines that can learn.

That is the case with Dodd-Frank. That is not usually the case with regulation. Normally it goes "here are the rules, execute." Dodd-Frank is a nightmare exactly because they just have an outline full of blanks. It turns out regu

See my response talking about legislature regulation versus regulators whose job it is to enforce that regulation (It is the comment above).

by neonbat 11y ago
That's wrong. That kind of regulation comes from the legislature. It's an outside force. The effects of a regulator's actions on their ability to join banks afterwards are measured independently of legislature regulation. Wha

There's no real incentive for regulators to regulate if you think about it. If you DO regulate you're less likely to have exit jobs to Wall Street. If you DON'T regulate and things go well, everything will be good and you&#x2

The reason is that it was a systematic structural problem. Instead of picturing that chain of command (the one you just listed) inside one organization. Imagine EACH step of that chain is actually a different organization that handles one p

Even though the kid probably won't get a felony it is absurd that the government can even use that bargaining chip in this scenario to gain leverage. This is the same kind of garbage they used against Swartz.
