@shaarsh2 @dvassallo @trishankkarthik @hjluks Zones actually have less to do with HR since HR is very very idiosyncratic. They have to do with effort. Breathing rate is probably a better proxy. Also control of vagal tone => Lower HR when not needed, more fine-tuned. — PolitiTweet.org

OK, started with lecture notes for "Static and Dynamic Hedging", got drawn into a complete book on QUANTITATIVE FINANCE in the real world. Is the title OK? Once I got the title, I got the book. https://t.co/Z1AUYCzUBn — PolitiTweet.org

@trishankkarthik It's not that. He is (justifyingly) suffering from the impostor syndrome, with some anxiety and reputational fears. His reactions is to attack both my reputation and the relevance of my claims that he was never cut for serious research or anything beyond powerpoint slides. — PolitiTweet.org

Welcome back to the Mediterranean, @AUB! Καλώς ήρθατε πίσω στη Μεσόγειο! (After looking Westward since the Bronze age and doing business in the Med --actually since Europa daughter of Agenor -- something went wrong in the 1950s with oil money). — PolitiTweet.org

@dsquareddigest I know the place: clients are 110% Russian, get 20% of the quality you get 5 km away for 5x the price. And they know it; overpaying is part of the scene. — PolitiTweet.org

2) Medical costs are not just R&D for drugs. They include numerous safety studies for procedures, plus all the staff training, etc. Same for books, part. textbooks. Printing costs are tiny, so foreign readers have been traditionally subsidized by U.S. consumers. — PolitiTweet.org

Talks about "U.S. Exploitation" oft. get it backwards. The American citizen is subsidizing healthcare in the rest of the world. How? Drugs & procedures are more expensive here largely because U.S. patients bear the development costs. Research costs billions, pills cost pennies. — PolitiTweet.org

OK, ready to give the overview of Black Scholes in class tomorrow. It is not that my knowledge of finance was conserved over > 1 decade, but it actually increased from latently brewing it. The derivations are coming out very naturally. https://t.co/YTC8LPnC24 — PolitiTweet.org
