HFT is the reason why I bailed out of forex. As a LFT (low frequency trader) i was smoked more often than not. Taxing the system in any form is not the answer as that would have LFT's and independent brokers taxed out of the market - HFTs won't care about any tax they'll just pass it along and write it off. Tra-la-la.

IMHO, the only way to fix this broken system is to significantly reduce the amount of trades a HFT can perform in a time frame such as 1 second or perhaps a minute. A harkin/defazio tax will only serve to further break an already broken system.

I for one more than welcome the Governator T1, T2 and T3 were great sci-fi, wonderful time travel paradox films and fantastic examples of the genre. The first 3 films were solid story telling with a solid and consistent POV. Brilliant. Not great, but brilliant. Each movie was a solid 7.5 to 8 out of 10 compared to movies like Fast & Furious or Abrams' Star Trek. T5 is something I would see opening weekend just like i did with the dismal failure of T4 which despite it's name and hype was not a terminator movie and was literally nothing more than "a day in the life of" movie. T4 did not create nor solve a time travel paradox though it had many opportunities - mr big man nolan missed the point completely. I welcome T5 and another opportunity to mark judgment day on my calendar.

Completely misleading article and title. This has nothing hitting an invisible cap. His high usage exposed him abusing the TOS and nothing else. Fair, fine and dandy. If this were my ISP I wouldn't give him until July to switch to a business account I'd automagically retro the billing to a business account for the last 6 months and then he can fight it out with the billing dept.

Cause that is what the bureaucrats who come up with this kind of shit say.

They don't care if they are wrong since there is no process to give a shit if they are wrong.

Our constitutions were written in a day (even 50 years ago) and an age where integrity mattered and we all had beliefs which we stood up for and defended proudly. Not so today. Constitutions without consequence are meaningless, in my country and in all countries on this planet.

the sound that you hear is sound that is not going into that other persons ears, so it really isn't doing much if any damage at all - except for bugging you of course ahahahahaha.

How to react to the coworker who complains to you that a coworker thinks that his coding is bad.

It's been happening for the the last 12K Years, I think it is about time someone took notice.

doom^^3 - children must learn at an early age.

really makes you wonder about the FAIL mentality of genius devs

or hows about the top quark - mass of a gold atom with no structure.. sure..

mod this coward parent poster up !

if "they" really want to find me "they" can and "they" will - nobody else needs my real name to do anything unless I want them to.

Real names zealots have been around since UUnet days and their sky hasn't fallen into the mayhem and chaos they proselytize however I'd be willing to bet that Anders Breivik posted using his real name on facebook. Sorta proves the point don't it.
