Time for work on SKA

[oracleslave]

I think we have all learned a lot from AtW.

Don't spend 4 years living and working alone in a bedsit on what you think is a world beating idea, but is in reality a large collection of disk drives and a shoddy website.

Good luck AtW. I hope they let you out in the community again soon.

No.

I granted you amnesty today - you are now not in my ban list.

That was not take the piss question, there are search engines that uses Efficient Frontier mathematical modeling for calculating risk and uncertainty. Its nto only for IB work.

I wouldn't laugh. It's quite sad really.

Dunno, in the past few years I was driven to follow the best paying contract because of financial needs and circumstances - now my financial needs are not as bad, I have opted for quality, my previous contract were too keen to keep me on £500 per day, and when declined offered me an increase, but I decided to accept a new contract, the new contract entails more work (building mathematical engines) and lower rate, but I know I’ll be a lot happier doing this for a while.

Yes but you are not deluding yourself that you're some kind of Blofeld figure about to take over the world.

It would be sad if it wasn't voluntary. AtW does not want sympathy, (or anything but positive feedback for that matter) he is doing this all on his own, in his own way. As this involves flying in the face of all conventional wisdom then I can't help but find some amusement in it. Light-hearted of course, because I actually genuinely would like to see him have some measure of success.

[SandyDown]

Well Sassy, if the inventor didn't believe in his invention/product, how do you think he's able to convince others.

AtW, serious question, why do you call your product after the wine company?

As would I.
But I fear it's becoming pathological, based on his City rantings.

WHS.

I think he's losing it. Too many years alone, not enough rest, holidays, fun, travel, social interaction. Sad really.

im guessing it's related to this.. wikipedia- Majestic_12

"Majestic 12 (also known as Majic 12, Majestic Trust, M12, MJ 12, MJ XII or Majority 12) is the purported code name of a secret committee of scientists, military leaders, and government officials, supposedly formed in 1947 by an executive order of U.S. President Harry S. Truman. The purpose of the committee was to investigate UFO activity in the aftermath of the Roswell incident - the purported crash of an alien spaceship near Roswell, New Mexico, in July 1947. This alleged committee is an important part of the UFO conspiracy theory of an ongoing government cover up of UFO information."
