Or that they'd been stabbed, until after the fact.
So I've mentioned the sharpie test and the tueller drill.
Another reason you are dead within 1.5 seconds of encountering your first fast zombie, is adrenaline.
The Tueller Drill is interesting.https://t.co/D6p3zRRV52

Or that they'd been stabbed, until after the fact.
A dozen times within 30 seconds.
In full adrenaline freakout, this is even more pronounced.
You are dead the moment you encountered it.
Walking your dog would be difficult if it were. Just living in any city, really.
In reality, many people who were stabbed don't even realize it until afterwards.
Versus ones talking about sprinting speeds and comfortable running shoes and such
Not as sexy as arguing about guns and knives and bats, though
And all of that'd be as useless as having an actual gun in a surprise knifefight.

An interesting thing about carp is that they can go into anoxic hibernation and switch to an anaerobic metabolism based on converting glycogen to ethanol.
The waste ethanol is diffused out the gills
https://t.co/V3D1umHf04
Carp can switch over to an anaerobic metabolism and quietly exhale booze until the situation gets better.
They basically evolved the same metabolic pathway as yeast, independently.
In theory, if you spent a few thousand years breeding carp for it, you could use them to make booze.
They'd be enormous, almost entirely glycogen deposits with a fish added as an afterthought.
The really interesting thing about anaerobic carp, is that they can go 4-5 months without oxygen by relying on liver glycogen.
You, a human, have only about 100 grams of glycogen in your liver, about 400 more grams in your skeletal muscles. Call it 500 grams total.
In humans, glycogen is also burned for energy. This is where the marathon runner's bonk comes from: you only have about 2,000 calories worth, and running a marathon burns those 2,000 calories.

Look at some historical examples of mass psychogenic illnesses: dancing plagues, laughing plagues, meowing nuns,
Here's a video on them:
They are interesting, but what is more interesting to me is Culture Bound Syndrome. https://t.co/hMKaApUMZn
Basically: mass psychogenic illness, and presentation of various mental illnesses, do not occur in a vacuum. Cultures shape them.
For instance, Koro.
There have been several mass outbreaks of men completely convinced their penises are shrinking, anchoring them with string at night so they don't get sucked back inside.
Almost all in Southeast
Here's a description of one outbreak in Hainan in 1984:

So you want to generate interesting melodies.
1. Make a file called 1235.txt containing, one per line, all 24 unique permutations of the elements 1 2 3 5.
2. Cp 1235.txt to D.txt
3. Use sed to convert the numbers in D.txt to notes. Now you have 24 permutations of the major tetrachord in D.
4. Play them each. If it sounds like it increases tension, mark the beginning of that cell in 1235.txt with a +. If it sounds like it decreases tension, mark with a -.
Now those 24 melodic cells are divided into two groups: tension increasers and resolvers.
5. Rinse and repeat for all 12 keys.
You now have 13 plaintext files, filled with stuff like + 1 2 5 3 and - D E F# A
6. Figuratively roll dice to decide, given a +/- cell, what the next cell should be.
33% chance a + follows a +, etc.
Now you're outputting a stream of dynamic tensions: ++-+++-+-+---+ etc

I'm going to do two history threads on Ethiopia, one on its ancient history, one on its modern story (1800 to today). 🇪🇹
I'll begin with the ancient history ... and it goes way back. Because modern humans - and before that, the ancestors of humans - almost certainly originated in Ethiopia. 🇪🇹 (sub-thread):
The first likely historical reference to Ethiopia is ancient Egyptian records of trade expeditions to the "Land of Punt" in search of gold, ebony, ivory, incense, and wild animals, starting in c 2500 BC 🇪🇹
Ethiopians themselves believe that the Queen of Sheba, who visited Israel's King Solomon in the Bible (c 950 BC), came from Ethiopia (not Yemen, as others believe). Here she is meeting Solomon in a stain-glassed window in Addis Ababa's Holy Trinity Church. 🇪🇹
References to the Queen of Sheba are everywhere in Ethiopia. The national airline's frequent flier miles are even called "ShebaMiles". 🇪🇹

A THREAD ON @SarangSood
Decoded his way of analysis/logics for everyone to easily understand.
Have covered:
1. Analysis of volatility, how to foresee/signs.
2. Workbook
3. When to sell options
4. Diff category of days
5. How movement of option prices tell us what will happen
1. Keeps following volatility super closely.
Makes 7-8 different strategies to give him a sense of what's going on.
Whichever gives highest profit he trades in.
2. Theta falls when market moves.
Falls where market is headed towards not on our original position.
3. If you're an options seller then sell only when volatility is dropping, there is a high probability of you making the right trade and getting profit as a result
He believes in a market operator, if market mover sells volatility Sarang Sir joins him.
4. Theta decay vs Fall in vega
Sell when Vega is falling rather than for theta decay. You won't be trapped and higher probability of making profit.

I am quite different from your style. I follow the market's volatility very closely. I have mock positions in 7-8 different strategies which allows me to stay connected. Whichever gives best profit is usually the one i trade in.

Anilji most of the time these days Theta only falls when market moves. So the Theta actually falls where market has moved to, not where our position was in the first place. By shifting we can come close to capturing the Theta fall but not always.

This week has been great so far. The main aim is to be in the right side of the volatility, rest the market will reward.

There is a difference between theta decay & fall in vega. Decay is certain but there is no guaranteed profit as delta moves can increase cost. Fall in vega on the other hand is backed by a powerful force that sells options and gives handsome returns. Our job is to identify them.
