cited research aside this is asinine. let's pretend we could regress "did smile" on "genetics" and "culture" and inspected the coefficients of the covariates (i.e. investigate treatment effect). we would f

I speak shit Spanish (very weak third language) and even I can get the gist of what they're talking about. I'll admit all the stuff around the rolling rs is very hard to make out though.

I don't understand this. as long as it's obvious that you're multilingual people don't hold it against you when you make mistakes. on the other hand I have a friend whose bilingual with no accent in English and has troub

one annoying thing about go error handling aside from the copious `if err != nil` statements is that if someone somewhere doesn't handle an error there's no way to find! yes I know about errorcheck or whatever that library is call

I don't understand why 100 mil aum is different from 1 bill aum. couldn't you just divide the billion amongst 10 groups that are Chinese walled from each other? then there'd be no problems of market moving or depth or anythin

I asked derman what an alternative would be to the formal models quants use now and his answer was that the whole thing should just be left up to "smart people and their gut instincts". the problem is that as soon as these smart p
