“Like”

“Like”

Jun 16

This whole Facebook “like” thing is getting out of hand. Facebook keeps recommending things to me that other people “like”. You know what other people like? Books. Not specific books, just “books”. You know what else people like (or so Facebook tells me)? They like “country music”. Not particular artists, not particular songs, but “country music”. How do you tag an arbitrary thing that you “like”? I don’t even know. When I figure it out, I’m going to “like” air. Then I’m going to like “breathing”. I might go so far as to “like” The can.

One of the things I like most about programming is that to implement something correctly you must understand the details of whatever you’re implementing.

I’ve been reading about MACD this evening and I’ve come to a better understanding of the MACD trading strategy than I’ve ever had.

Last week I was reading about the exponential moving average (EMA) and now I understand it better than I ever have before.

It’s fun to learn new things.
