So long, suckers. Millionaire hedge fund boss thanks 'idiot' traders and retires at 37

2008-10-21T14:40:00.000-07:00

The boss of a successful US hedge fund has quit the industry with an extraordinary farewell letter dismissing his rivals as over-privileged "idiots" and thanking "stupid" traders for making him rich.

Andrew Lahde's $80m Los Angeles-based firm Lahde Capital Management in Los Angeles made a huge return last year by betting against subprime mortgages.

Yesterday the 37-year-old told his clients that he had hated the business and had only been in it for the money. And after declaring he would no longer manage money for other people, because he had enough of his own, Lahde said that instead he intended to repair his stress-damaged health; he made it clear he would not miss the financial world.

His final words of advice? "Throw the Blackberry away and enjoy life."

The Wall Street Journal is already (secretly) Free

2008-03-21T15:18:00.000-07:00

The easy way to get WSJ articles for free (but you don't get all stories):

If you're not a Journal subscriber and would like to read an article that's locked away, here's the first, easiest thing to try: Search for the story's headline in Google News.

On Friday, for example, the Journal published four articles on its front page. Two were available for all, while the following two were offered to subscribers only: "$100 Billion Power Deal Moves Closer in Europe" and "(New Math) x (SEC Rules) + Proxy=Confusion."

Both those locked headlines are in Google News. A search there for "$100 Billion Power Deal Moves Closer in Europe" brings up a Journal link -- click on it, and you get the whole story. Similarly, search for "(New Math) x (SEC Rules) + Proxy=Confusion" and you'll get that piece, too.

Many Journal articles can be accessed this way. But some cannot -- when you search for them in Google News, you don't find a link.

So what to do? If you use Firefox and are comfortable with installing add-ons -- and really, there's nothing difficult about it -- read on for the advanced method, which gives you access to the full WSJ site for free.

Heckadecimal : The Rubber Shorts -- Free Album

2008-02-04T18:09:00.000-08:00

After his subtle yet somewhat disturbing showing on FK's Computer Controlled Substances compilation, Heckadecimal graces us yet again with a fantastic ep of new and original tracks. Armed with a well-sized flotilla of synths and drum-machines, his approach to music and its process is elusive. A healthy mix of sonic textures but familiar and obscure, "The Rubber Shorts" is a timeline beginning with languishing acid-lines and squishy percussion, finishing out with musical phrases and overtures truly of another planet.

Musgle

2008-01-15T18:31:00.000-08:00

Musgle originates from the idea of combining words Music and Google. The idea is simple yet very powerful. To see Musgle in action just type a song title, or the artist name, or both in a search bar and hit 'Enter' - you will be redirected to the Google page with relevant search results. Click on one of those results, and you will have a chance to directly download the song you are searching for - very smooth!

Although Musgle is not affiliated with Google, ALL its strength comes from it :) When searching for any kind of music (mp3, wma, wav, etc), Musgle calls Google for help by submitting a special search query to it, which is based on Advanced Google Search Operators. After Google does its hard work, it returns results with direct links to mp3, wma, wav, etc.. music files that can be downloaded directly with no hassle!

Woah. The coolest new toy for everyone. I really want roller shoes, but unfortunately they don't have my size. Check this!!!

The Magic Wheel looks set to be next in line when it comes to modest transportation fads such as the Razor scooter. While the unicycle remained lost in the realm of circuses and clowns, the Magic Wheel aims to change that by featuring all three forms of self-propelled transportation in a single mode of transport. Designed by the Swiss, the Magic Wheel will definitely get you noticed as you get around the neighborhood in this, and it makes the perfect ice breaker with strangers whom you meet on the road. The Magic Wheel retails for $162, and as usual, do wear all the necessary protective gear before heading out on it.

ALLinOne news -- metasearch technology in action

Woot: One Day, One Deal

What is Woot and who's behind it?: Woot.com is an online store and community that focuses on selling cool stuff cheap. It started as an employee-store slash market-testing type of place for an electronics distributor, but it's taken on a life of its own. We anticipate profitability by 2043 – by then we should be retired; someone smarter might take over and jack up the prices. Until then, we're still the lovable scamps we've always been. But don't take our word for it: see what the online community has to say at this Wikipedia article.

InFocus 76-inch 16:9 Projector Screen
$29.99+ $5 shipping

My Purchases on woot include a Razor Copperhead 2000dpi gaming mouse ($34.99) & Walkie talkie watches 2 pack ($19.99). Woot baby! and they were cheaper than any other place on Internet.

What Could Bring Globalization Down?

2006-09-11T21:00:00.000-07:00

We tend to think of the forces of globalization as a permanent part of the landscape—but then perhaps they were thinking that way too in 1914, when a number of factors from an over-extended superpower to a rise in terrorism ushered in the First World War.

Harvard professor Niall Ferguson believes that our current international economy has similarities to the economic dynamics of ninety years ago. Recently, Ferguson took time to expand upon the ideas expressed in his article "Sinking Globalization," which appeared in the March/April issue of Foreign Affairs.

Ferguson teaches in the Business, Government and the International Economy unit of Harvard Business School and is a professor of history at Harvard University.

250K in ad money to make Jason Silent for a year. Will it work? I like the idea, and obviously we have seen it work before with the Million dollar homepage.

Jason claims he will not speak to anyone for one year if the entire web page sells out at a quarter a pixel. He will only speak on a podcast about what it is like to be silent.

This sounds like a scam to make some quick cash. I wonder who will care after the year is up if Jason did not talk.

Time will tell. =D

W3Counter: Internet Explorer 67%, Firefox 25% as of July 8, 2006

Just read a report about the market share of web browsers from W3Counter: Internet Explorer 67% (IE6 66% + IE7 1%), Firefox 25% (FF1.5 21% + FF1.0 4%), it looks that Firefox is doing very well.

You can also find that the majority screen resolution is 1024 x 768 or above, that means we should design our web pages layout based on 1024 x 768 instead of 800x600.

This report shows statistics aggregated across all active websites tracked by W3Counter. It was last generated on July 8, 2006 based on an analysis of 1,022,601 distinct visits across 1,177 websites.

Digg website where users submit stories not publishers

2006-07-07T07:30:00.000-07:00

Digg is a user driven social content website. Ok, so what the heck does that mean? Well, everything on digg is submitted by the digg user community (that would be you). After you submit content, other digg users read your submission and digg what they like best. If your story rocks and receives enough diggs, it is promoted to the front page for the millions of digg visitors to see.

What can you do as a digg user? Lots. Every digg user can digg (help promote), bury (help remove spam), and comment on stories... you can even digg and bury comments you like or dislike. Digg also allows you to track your friends' activity throughout the site — want to share a video or news story with a friend? Digg it!
