I have a question for you. How do I go about buying stocks? I mean, literally, how do I take a course of action that results in a transaction of money for ownership. I can find advice on how to figure out which ones to buy no problem.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

I myself use an online brokerage called TradeMonster, it's both cheap and reliable. Also: When choosing an online broker? Look at the platform. Everyone and their mother can have an online brokerage but if they don't have a worth-a-damn platform you're basically on handicap the whole time. But, I've never once had an issue with them or their support staff. Nice promo offers as well.


There's all sorts of good references on the net. :] PM me if you need more in the weeds talking about it, I don't want to bore everyone with it.

Last Sunday I told my mom I was raped.  She said "Well, what a worse-than-cad," and nothing else.  She tried to convince me today that a lot of the problem with college women being raped (the population in the country most likely to be raped) is that they go to parties with that goal in mind.  Of being drugged and raped.

I'm done.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.
