At least now we are somewhat more empowered to find obscure blog posts. Which raises the suggestion that hackers are advantaged towards finding information. Which raises the suggestion that we should take the independent initiative of using SEO to inform more people about how to become search super-users.

In my mind, day trading is like poker in the sense that it’s a game of skill and luck, and, more importantly, the sharks eat the minnows. I refrain from day trading because I presume I lack the capability to outsmart the sharks.

The article mentions there exist hedge funds that consistently perform well, but it doesn’t mention that they’re likely making their profit by feasting on the errors of less skilled traders.

I once spent some effort to make my handwriting very legible, without concern for calligraphic sensibilities. For example I had serifs on several but not all letters. Perhaps such handwriting (and similar efforts) would lend themselves more to handwriting fonts than digitizing handwriting that is not practiced for legibility. I mean: perhaps it would look handwritten when digitized more so than fonts based on handwriting not optimized for legibility (optimized in the sense of my effort). The author’s handwriting looks quite legible. I wonder how they approached their own handwriting before digitization.

I think it would be interesting to re-run experiments / data analyses (ones sensitive to FP correctness) to see what holds up. I imagine that would be a pain though; reproducibility isn’t usually easy.
