I'm about to open an account in Interactive Brokers and play with their sandbox environment. Semiconductors are the future!

I've got a few hundred copies of Dijkstras algorithm, 50 alpha-beta searches, and a dozen A*'s left if anyone wants to approach me with a reasonable offer.
We have two directories for DFAs, seventy-five neural networks, five highly optimized schedulers, a .zip full of hidden markov models, and a whole galaxy of multi-paradigm methods, optimizations, models, metaheuristics... Also, a pack of of optical recognition algorithms, five FFTs, a case of hashes, a pair of novel cryptographic functions, and two dozen compressors. Not that we need all that, but once you get locked into a serious algorithm collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worries me is the swarm intelligences. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an swarm intelligence optimization binge, and I knew we'll get into that rotten stuff pretty soon.

>>6 I think that the effects of anal penetration will be negative with a long term.
>>5 HFTs are pretty frowned upon after the 2010 flash crash and just today the US issued an arrest for someone who allegedly "manipulated the price of [financial] futures" using "computer-based algorithms" and apparently he was "a significant factor" for that very crash. Make of that as you will.
>>11 I should have provided the source, I'm sorry. I closed the tab with the page where I got those quotes from, but I'm sure there's news about it on bloomberg.

>>10 That's rather alarming. Next they will arrest video game developers when a bridge collapses.
