At the time, no. There wasn't any checking. And while it looks like a lot, it wasn't insanely expensive to unwind. Sometimes these kind of mistakes make money. My own 'mistake prof…

No, the gui input field das just 100000000000 vs 10000000000. Oops

I've been in the room when it happened. In one memorable incident, a junior trader I sat opposite bought 100 bn Japanese Yen instead of 10 bn. His excuse? "I lost track of the zero…

The SEC regulates the entire US banking industry, and yet 2008 still happened. How is this news? Answer, it's not.

I believe it's custom, because the mechanical part is actually just part of a sensor (it's just a magnet in a slider). The other part is the hall effect sensor which is soldered on…

I believe it measures distance, so possibly speed as well, and force could be computed with knowledge of spring resistance. However, I don't think I saw anything in their material …

Sounds like "You are holding it wrong" Err, what software? I can set scroll wheel acceleration on ubuntu, with no additional software. Using HDMI on my camera has a lower resolutio…

What if he doesn't want to? IPhones have some pretty terrible UI issues too.

Disabling acceleration on scroll wheels of 3rd party mice - Nope. Can you stand scrolling 1 pixel, 1 pixel, 1 pixel, 1/3 the whole screen? I can't. Want to use a 15 year old DSLR a…
