The Tao that can be told is not the Absolute Tao…. whatsoever can be said cannot be true… do not become a victim of the words…. remember the wordless…the Tao can be communicated, but it can only be communicated from being to being…remember that truth cannot be said…. it can only be realized in silence…. when your inner talk has stopped, then it is realized…and that which is realized in silence, how can you say it in sound? It is experience…. not thought…. So as you read these words, what are you experiencing now?

Chinese philosopher Lao-Tzu:
“The master of the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him, he is always doing both.”

The problem is not that there are too many physicists on Wall Street, he said, but that there are not enough. A graduate, he told the young recruits, can make $75,000 to $250,000 a year as a quant but can also be fired if things go sour. He said an investment banker had told him that Wall Street was not looking for Ph.D.’s, but what he called “P.S.D.s — poor, smart and a deep desire to get rich.” |

| Obviously, it seems, the expectations of one group of people are different than those of folks in other industries. Because the expectations are different, the degree of customer satisfaction is different. Hence, folks on the trading side of the spectrum should understand that folks in NMS and security management have been using open rule-based engines to process events for over 20 years. We seek “something more”. Our expecations are higher. |
| Perhaps this is one of the main reasons why reasonable people in the field of CEP have such different opinions on their satisfaction with the so called “CEP vendors” and their software platforms. Most of the passion in support of these vendors comes from the “feeds and speeds” side of capital markets. In fact, we read very little support coming from other areas or domains. The complimentary articles that come from analysts are almost always from folks working on the trading side of the financial services industry. |

“If you do this, it will be one of the best things for India and one of the worst for Americans, [because] Indians will be forced to innovate at home,” said Subhash B. Dhar, a member of the executive council that runs Infosys, the well-known Indian technology company that sends Indian workers to the U.S. to support a wide range of firms. “We protected our jobs for many years and look where it got us. Do you know that for an Indian company, it is still easier to do business with a company in the U.S. than it is to do business today with another Indian state?” |
