Hashing, signaling and job searching
The software industry, when they hire on line, the ad often looks like a typeface explosion, a series of acryonyms for the little bits of standard code they use. A hash, if you will, a code. The funny thing, that hash, that code works on the web, it generates the code, the people and the communities. In the industry, and being a rarely employed asshole,I used to browse the job searches as the web became real. Like I do market research for my pet hobby, right here. If I didn't quite get some obcsurity, I would look it up on the web, like right here as I do it on this blog. As time goes on, notice, getting the code up and running is often faster than the interview process. Software self automates, it puts itself out of business almost continually.

Rules for Texas voter ID cards
If you are a Mexican citizen who snuck in, do not flash your Mexican voter ID, not wise.
If you are Libertarian, put the voter ID card in the sole of your shoe, leave it there all year. Slip your shoe off once a year at the polling station.
If you are an anarchist, don't get one, don't vote, remain anonymous.
If you are an American black, don't worry. You folks were four chapters in American history, you're gonna get one.
If you are a Texas cop, do not ask for ID unless you have a valid reason, or you gonna violate search and seizure.
King Eric? Is this simple enough for you?

I have my ATT gift card
Miracles will never cease. CEO of I wanna be an ATT Banker and CEO of I wanna be ATT Google and CEO ATT Hasn't a clue disguised the fact that I can now pay my frigging ATT bill! They have unknowingly violated the holy sanctity of must churn! They still might get boiled for shutting down unauthorized payment centers.
And hardly voted for
Our Nation faces unprecedented challenges caused by an overspending, overregulating, and overtaxing government.Americans are demanding a new direction. Polls show more California voters want to retire Senator Feinstein than want to send her back to Washington . Gal with Flag Lapel
Electricity to methanol
Think about it. Not being green, since the electricity comes from somewhere. But there is an efficiency point, where the gain from making this great liquid fuel outweighs the transmission cost of electricity. My target on a methanol factory is 40% conversion efficiency, first generation. Making methanol, right their in the LA harbor from electricity. Just the saving on transporting liquid fuel alone gets you close to break even.
In LA, they are stuck in a basin, they pay a higher price for combustion of fossil fuel. They will pay to move the combustion somewhere else, and an efficient methanol factory does that for them.

I am not really a pessimist
Long term spread compression spells flat line ahead
No spectral composition anymore, that means wide band variations, apply the antit-fourier thing and you get steady state, low growth in smooth math. That would be a Whoops.
Information technology, it constantly raises accuracy, so the premium on liquidity, the ability to grab inventory as the technology reveals it. The business model behind the treasury curve is DC, and that model is not so nimble, and loses the game too much.
Still think query scripts
Looking at this bag of key words:
"addressbook blanchard street washington state"
Pretty obvious I am looking for a lost address somewhere in Washington State. But it is semi-ordered, so part of the query structure is in the first position. The industry and clients strictly agree to take the first term as a hash that gets us to the entity addressbook. Event hash the first and second, weighted hash. Do they have weighted hashes yet or should I unpatent it?
So the goal, of eliminating reserved words and sticking with the uglies, may be to impose internals in the thing addressbook, internals like a schema definition. I mean sql engineers translate that query into machine language all the time.
So we can have all the key words we want, as long as they are int he data, ad we can get to the top of the data pile. Hadoop, the some new things have intelligent hash entries, they all have the same assumption, the lead semantic makes the biggest jump to a destination. The point of agreement between human and computer.
Fro the ppit of view of us all having personal Watson's then, we will all causally make thousands of lists, knowing any casual mention of a list must at least be the first key word first. It is like a Schur , the reduction, the second semantic is another independent slice of the query, the next independent variation in the answer. So its really like a pacman eating the dots, chewing through the sequence.
The Fresno design can do that, no problem. I mean, that's a natural for nested store, right? What makes it simple is mobility for the graphs, the small graph. A has table needn't do much more than launch the requesting graph through the router, no other states involves.
Anyway, this is the Watson technology, it is the one the industry wants to do.
Group by, Order by don't work well in this model, leave them out and let some genius solve it later. I think we can skip the reserved words all together.
Let's name it Shannon. We can have a Watson vs Shannon face off.

Ken Salazar just screwed the pooch
Interior Secretary Ken Salazar took to the White House briefing room Monday to defend President Obama’s energy plan after a new poll suggested high gas prices are eroding the president’s approval numbers.No quick fix, this from an administration who claimed Keynesian policy was a quick fix. This is the point, Obama is in trouble because he pulled the fast one, claiming the crash had nothing to do with input shortages. Then at election time he pulls out this patsy to cover the lie!
Salazar insisted that Obama is reviewing short- and long-term actions to lower gas prices, while also noting that there are no quick fixes to the problem. Hill
Here is a clue for the undectuated Keynesians:
It all adds up to a fossil fuel jobs boom: oil and gas extraction alone created 150,000 jobs last year – about 9 percent of all new jobs created in 2011, according to a new study from the World Economic Forum, though the industry accounts for only about 5.2 percent of total employment. EconomixSo if you want to use employment as a unit of account, here it is, we suffered an energy shoratage, and still do. How many of these jobs were due to Keynesian policy? Why did energy employment outperform, I don't remember any Keynesian push to get more drilling.
Santorum got this right, none of Obama's advisors did.
Quiz day at Zero Hedge
Zero Hedge asks why the Ten Year yields is flat and uncorrelated with the SP 500. Treasury yields, in normal times, is a good proxy for economic yields in general. We would expect Treasury rates to rise as stocks signal greater economic yield. But here the green dots, Treasury yield, is flat even though real yields fluctuate. How can that be?
My answer. The Treasury is no longer a proxy for the economy, Treasury yields today are mainly about keep DC solvent. DeLong would say, not so, but Delong assumes all intermediate points on the convergence are available solutions. We have a sparse solution set. If the Fed trades to correlate Treasury yields with economic yields, then the next stable solution is DC bankruptcy.
How long can the Fed keep this up? As long as all economies have the same energy shortage, then we can all fake it together. Unfortunately, look at this chart from Mark Perry:
Which indicates to me that the Swiss and Japan are much better at adapting to energy shortages. The key factor for economies going forward is energy efficiency, and Obama and his deceptive economic team deliberately ignored energy shortages. They deliberately implied that adaption to energy shortages was unnecessary, this was a financial shortage, not an energy shortage. Now the lie is coming back to haunt them as Obama loses the election.

Ed DeMarco's Refusal on Principal Reductions Grounds for Firing
I got news for the dumbshits at Huffington Post, Congress determines how much homeowners should get from tax payers, Congress. Note to self, do not read anything from the business pages of the Huffington Post.
From his perch as acting director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, DeMarco oversees Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-owned mortgage behemoths that collectively control about half of all home loans in the land. What he does shapes both the national housing market and the ability of troubled borrowers to hang on to their homes. What he has been been doing lately has been so unhelpful that Democratic lawmakers and grassroots advocacy groups are properly demanding his ouster.
DeMarco steadfastly refuses to allow Fannie and Freddie to help distressed homeowners by writing off principal balances on their mortgages. This has ensured that tens of millions of borrowers remain "underwater," meaning they owe the banks more than their homes are worth -- a status that has an alarming tendency to portend foreclosure. His refusal is based on logic that is both elegantly simple and tragically flawed: He is responsible for cleaning up the books at Fannie and Freddie, so he is against spending money.
