Fri Feb 14 02:27:51 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> mircea_popescu: the purpose of my activity, like i explained to you (now 3 times) was to have a go at something i was skeptical would work, specifically because you seemed to think there was some potential in trying the idea out
Fri Feb 14 02:26:06 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> am i really speaking gibberish here?
Fri Feb 14 02:25:55 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> ...
Fri Feb 14 02:24:52 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> profit can come when there is an actual stack of bids and offers to sell into, in the meantime can make a small market around the diff implied price which encourages others to do same, generating the potential for daytrading, etc
Fri Feb 14 02:23:34 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> mircea_popescu: what i said to you from the very beginning was that there is no profit to turn, except in the potential for MM, which i am underfunded for, but i would give a crack anyway
Fri Feb 14 02:21:37 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> ....
Fri Feb 14 02:21:03 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> mircea_popescu: i just explained it? nature does not build systems which drift from equilibrium. obama is literally riding a complex system in escape velocity. the implication is that what i tried to do is ...incorrect...because its obama-esque and not nature-esque...im saying thats so far from what i was trying to accomplish, that i dont understand the connection
Fri Feb 14 02:20:12 UTC 2014 <mircea_popescu> herbijudlestoids anyway, it's nothing as heavyhanded as "a lesson" blabla, it's just we apparently all seem to see sometyhing there.
Fri Feb 14 02:18:23 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> im not riled up lol, im trying to understand wtf
Fri Feb 14 02:15:19 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> mircea_popescu: in no sense am i trying to build a complex system, just provide the seedbed for liquidity in ATCBTC on openex, in the hopes of enticing others to do similar
Fri Feb 14 02:14:07 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> mircea_popescu: your analogies arent even close to related. nature builds simple robust systems, obama trying to restart a complex system far from equilibrium...
Fri Feb 14 02:12:01 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> for strange definitions of creamed
Fri Feb 14 02:11:54 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> apparently this == quant gets creamed
Fri Feb 14 02:11:35 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> i tried it anyway, to keep an open mind because maybe i am missing some concept... but i dont think i am.
Fri Feb 14 02:11:08 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> this all started because mircea_popescu asked if i would be his "ATC daytrader on openex" because i mentioned having put on a small cascade of limit sells last night...and i said i didnt think there was anything to the market except the potential for MM
Fri Feb 14 02:10:07 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> mike_c: yall seem convinced that you have taught me some kind of lesson...or that im learning it...or whatever...all i can see is approx what i said would happen if undercapitalised, happened. i dont really take any exception to it happening, but to the idea that there was some kind of inherent lesson, or some point, whatever... i dont see it
Fri Feb 14 02:07:33 UTC 2014 <mircea_popescu> herbijudlestoids no but see, the argument is that nature did well enough populating the earth without trying to populate the earth
Fri Feb 14 02:06:45 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> again?
Fri Feb 14 02:06:21 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> haha fuck mike_c if its so aggravating, you can just put me on ignore, right? like i dont want to draw sighs from anyone
Fri Feb 14 02:05:21 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> lucky my survival doesnt depend at all whatsoever on my attempts to generate interest on openex in ATCBTC :)
