I just realized that when I embed Youtube videos, the playlist disappears (even though the URL included the playlist). Am I just stupid, @Big Mike?

Anyway, I thought I post the link to the lecture above and the documentary "The Trillion Dollar Bet" instead. The latter gives a good overview over the different kinds of traders, and it's well worth watching.

The Black-Scholes Formula - 1/5 - YouTube

Arithmetic, Population and Energy - 1 - a talk by Al Bartlett - YouTube

I was going to post this in the "natures photos" thread, but apparently @aquarian1 has, quite childishly, blocked me. Just because I gave my honest opinion about a vendor... I guess that's why so many traders fail, they choose to live in their own delusional world.

Anyway, I will finish my journal over the next few days. I am taking the week off from trading, thus I should have the time. I apologize for not getting it done last year, as I promised, but I had an infection in a wisdom tooth which spread to my jawbone. I am now enjoying the world through the lens of (synthetic) morphine and it seems so beautiful:

Welcome to the club. He is the only one who has ever blocked me. Not sharing my sense of humor.

"Program or be programmed"
Code Year

They are liars, or how can they pretend to know that exactly 102,070 people have made the resolution to start coding in 2012?

You're right, they can't know the exact number. They can, of course, know that 134 241 people have made the pledge on codeyear.com . It seems like a programming version of Khan Academy, and it might be interesting.

I don't mean to complain, but I've never been in more pain and I will need a little more time to finish to abomination.

In the meanwhile:

Seeing as this thread is mainly about critical thinking, and as I am an anarchist at heart, I think this video fits the theme:

Wow, this is one of the first times I agree with Fox News Commentary!

It is just ridiculous how little media play Ron Paul gets... Usually on sporting events the media loves the 'underdog' but for some reason in politics with Paul, they do not.
