Harry Heymann harryh

I hereby claim:

I am harryh on github.
I am harryh (https://keybase.io/harryh) on keybase.
I have a public key whose fingerprint is 2041 FC2E 0D1C 7B9A B8CE 4FA3 26C0 DDC8 24CC 3B7F

To claim this, I am signing this object:

	val letterSupply = args.reduce(_ + _)
	.groupBy(_.toLower)
	.mapValues(_.length)

	scala.io.Source.fromFile("letterpress.words")
	.getLines
	.filter(word => word.forall(c => letterSupply.get(c).exists(_ >= word.count(_ == c))))
	.toList
	.sortBy(_.length)
	.foreach(System.out.println(_))

	Front-running[1] isn't really a thing that's actually happening. Here's what is actually happening.

	The HFTer/liquidity provider wants to sit there all day long buying IBM for 99.99 and selling for 100.00
	making his penny a share in return for providing liquidity. But the liquidity provider has a problem.
	Every now and then Brad Katsuyama (or someone like him) shows up with proprietary information that,

	liquidity provider has lost a bunch of money when IBM moves to 101.00 and he can no longer buy for 99.99.

	So the liquidity provider tries to recognize as accurately as he can, and as fast as he can, that Brad

	Chassy is professor emeritus in the department of food science and human nutrition at the University
	of Illinois. “As a public-sector scientist, researcher, and academic administrator with more than
	forty years’ experience, I am appalled that any medical professional would give a platform to the
	likes of Mr. Jeffrey Smith to impart health information to the public,” Chassy wrote. “His only
	professional experience prior to taking up his crusade against biotechnology is as a ballroom-dance
	teacher, yogic flying instructor, and political candidate for the Maharishi cult’s natural-law party.”

	Economic Inequality: A Simple Rebuttal

	Paul Graham argues that "economic inequality per se is not bad." http://paulgraham.com/sim.html

	Beyond a certain point this is not true.

	In a state of nature, everyone is basically poor because no one cooperates. But this isn't bad for
	everyone. If you look like this guy (http://nerdist.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Dwayne-Johnson.jpg)
	you can take anyone else's stuff, be a warlord, and generally have your way with the world.
