Taking a break from preparing my job interview talk to read the news. Prominently displayed on the front page of the [virtual] New York Times is the announcement that the Dow Jones just passed 13,000 for the first time. An all-time high! Nowhere on the same page can I find anything mentioning that the dollar-euro exchange rate is less than one tenth of one cent away from becoming an all-time low. Funny that. According to these data, stocks are now worth more dollars than ever which, in turn, are worth less euros than [almost] ever. Money. Feh. More trouble that the whole system is worth...
Back to my job talk, it is going well and also rather quickly. Mainly because I am recycling large pieces of old talks (from both Super-K and Auger) into it. I feel like I am cheating by doing this; like I am copying the homework answers off of somebody else. Only thing is, the "somebody else" in question is actually me.
