Meanwhile, Dominos got crushed today:

279.51 -12.88

But I still agree that working in infrastructure engineering is better than gambling on stocks as my sole source of income, under the right conditions. I let them know in no uncertain terms what the right conditions are and they heeled.

At this job, I can still gamble but it has to be on longer time frames, with action taken first thing in the morning or at noon using my cell phone.

Market psychology is such a bizarre thing to witness.

When a stock like Dominos rises 100 fold plus in less than 10 years people tend to look at the chart and then automatically do what Westerners who have been trained from birth to use the scientific method automatically do, which is to ascribe explanations to the phenomenon they are witnessing, then to find others who agree that the herd that created the phenomenon was correct in doing so.

In looking at the parabolic chart of Dominos stock, the chart looks like a tech company that has a great new high tech product. And what I've been reading a lot lately is, you know, Dominos is not really a company that uses low wage labor to deliver a crappy commodity product in a cardboard box, a product that has absolutely limited market demand even on a worldwide basis, no, it is really a high tech company because they have a great online platform developed in house that is unique to their business!

GOOGLE DID NOT violate federal labor law when it fired James Damore, a lawyer for the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) concluded in a lightly-redacted memo made public Thursday. The former senior software engineer was fired from Google in August after internally circulating a ten-page memo arguing in part that women are not as biologically suited for coding jobs as men. After he was terminated, Damore filed a complaint with the NLRB, arguing that Google had violated his right to participate in protected activity, namely addressing problems in his workplace. The NLRB memo disagrees with Damore's complaint, and recommends dismissing it, were it not withdrawn.

Damore dropped the NLRB complaint last month to instead focus on a class action lawsuit he and another former Google employee brought against the company accusing it of discriminating against white, male, and conservative employees.
In my opinion, what Damore did is not a good idea. For anyone who believes what Damore is saying is true, the way to win at your job is to show that it is true. In other words, keep your mouth shut and excel at your job, not at writing stupid manifestos. There are 3 Gen X female engineers in my former workplace. All 3 expressed displeasure and anxiety when I gave my resignation. All 3 have kids to take care of. All 3 do less work and are less fit for their jobs than a male would be because of that. I can just about guarantee that these 3 former coworkers were my greatest allies in getting that 24% increase. I can almost hear the whining from 15 miles away.

All this time you are fair with a humility H.
Give them Hell with a smile of we have work to do.

The "tenth man rule" always has someone of contrarian no matter what.

Intelligence assessments are creative and do not fall prey to group think at any level.

Nice piazza party also.

But my kids? I thought kids were off limits. Family is off limits. And it backfires when you attack families.

Welcome to the middle as you finally see the actual miasma Mrs. Elected Official.

Keep that forty four ready and your oil lamps trimmed until they lock it up in a cage as I had to do for many months.

Immense cost but managed.

Strategy of tension. They already have replacement regime waiting in place.

Impeach and provide amnesty from Auntys cult as they take you out if you missed the memo.

Schumer knows this and Has no way out now. They let it happen.

Some farm boy is going to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and his family
on the line. Nothing will stop this Man but Gods final Judgement.

The current IT "inflation targeting" is simply a site to behold as the international bureaucrats collectives border project
of direct cash flow to survive with the Internationale in prostate position to the masters of the moment they serve
once again in time.

As we read the press today they do not want balanced trade so it settles the point we already know true just as the resist project Marxist here.
The Senate has failed just as the FBI appears also to only to care about itself to the Cultural Marxist who lost the recent election.

Another has pointed out what is coming again if you do not listen since decades of alleged university liberal wisdom in contempt as lowered the
standards to critical thought skills.

As conveyed,
My great-grandmother-in-law was a minor victim of the Red Guard. Minor meaning that she wasn't killed - they just took everything the family had after kicking them around. Grandma was 5 at the time and made to watch. In China you don't talk about it but at the end of her life she told me and my wife, her grand-daughter.
Fun fact: The Red Guard sounds like soldiers, kinda like our Marines. This is false, they were middle/high school Antifa. The main takeaway I got from that lesson was, never never never give up the guns.
One semi-related fact: The first Communist Revolution in China failed, and Mao was driven way out into the middle of nowhere. If the Japanese hadn't invaded, they would have faded into insignificance. This is both the opportunity and the threat in front of us.

As you can see Mr. Schumer has problem. He will be held responsible only from this point forward as is the DOJ and FBI to the facts we see.

as we discussed H

Your point was and is valid as the piazza experiment unfolded for a lack of a better definition as the AI control points plow forward on what and who listened. We know what percentages fill the sigma profiles up to three.
As I conveyed I was out at since it had a .3 chance of going higher from my indication.
As you know from that the 99.7 of it going down.
I did not model the down on that position since you had it covered. As I had other python scripts running as sp down and
the time markers for that provided as the russell 2000 shorts.
AI has the fatal flaw we discussed and yes we seen that also. That is also the fact they cannot fathom our estimations
since balance of systems maintains all the systems.

I have a slightly different take on this than Ken Fisher does, though there is some overlap.

My take is that by definition AI computers can't value equity because equity is worth zero to an AI computer. AI computers can only guess how humans will value the worth of equity. If they let AI computers take over and run the show, they will crash equity to zero. We've already seen a preview of that.

Most human analysts at the financial institutions can't properly value equity either (as illustrated by the comments on DPZ quoted) but that's a whole different topic. I don't want to get started on that one.
