Just another Marxist failing to explain shit about the problem. Look away, people

Yeah big news there, I've been calling my pet capybara "swegsweg" for like 3 years now and he's started to say "swegsweg" like he's a pokemon or some shit

What is the significance level? What is the model? This is freshman dorm room level analysis

Yeah. If you read the article, it is not asserting "Capitalism is Bad", it is saying that the rationality assumption implies that we don't need the market. If everyone was perfectly rational, we would all coordinate without the market.

Are you joking? Not trying to be critical, I just can't tell if you're serious. Why would Etsy have the most rigorous security measures?

I don't think apprehending them in advance before they ever get to the airport is security theater, and that's what this article addresses.

I interpreted it to mean that they have a blunted stress response, nothing more. Maybe a lot of people that undergo stress have a twofold reaction: 1. downregulate the response to similar stressors 2. still have some bad feelings about what happened

I would rather have 1 & 2 than just 2 alone. So yeah, when they say "associated with" they aren't saying "caused"

How are we to know what to support as citizens? What's worse, cyberterrorism due to fundamentally insecure cryptography infrastructure, or physical terrorism due to a lack of spying capability? I am marginally more afraid of what terrorists can do with computers than what they can do with guns and bombs.

One of the major points made in the article is that nobody hears about the attacks that get prevented. It may just be that surveillance is very effective.

That's interesting that the mice with stressed parents dealt better with stress. I've typically interpreted this strain of study as a sort of depressing, "rich get richer" of biology concept where every generation gets more stressed out until they somehow get removed from the gene pool. But it seems like the exact opposite is the case, that there is an adaptive numbing effect

Wasn't that based on a study of Ford factory workers?

I don't understand why other market participants can't adapt to spoofing.

I agree that fines won't work because it's just another variable influencing the value of the spoofing strategy and if you get extreme about it you're punishing legitimate parties.

Maybe the real problem is the culture of finance. I'm sure this guy isn't all too embarrassed about what happened and there are plenty of people who would love to hire him

I feel like Blizzard would have been really sick to work at when WoW was actually a growth business

They exist to make life easier for their customers, which is usually directly proportional to the amount of effort being exerted by the company...

Honestly I could see investment bankers laughing at this article. I definitely feel like technology is WAY more flexible, where you can do the "hardcore 12 hour days" 200k/yr track and also the "10-5 with lunch" lazy man's 60k/yr track.

If you want to spend a bunch of time with your family and work 35 hours a week, guess what man, you can't drive a nice car, own a big house in Los Altos, or send your kids to private school. Pick a lifestyle and accept the drawbacks that come with it.

There's seriously nothing wrong with moving to a second tier city and making 60k/yr. Let the people who love stress and success do their thing in the Bay Area
