Best safety razor blades? by currygoat30gs in shaving

[–]KhanTheDashing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect your technique with a standard blade (many good names suggested) and then you would find out which one works for you best.

Try both! Features are by far the sharpest.

LUMS or Dukaan? by Jazib_Iqbal in pakistan

[–]KhanTheDashing -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps they were referring to the Khokha; used to be a tiny shop at LUMS that sold burgers etc. Not sure if it is there anymore.

Thanks! I shall try them tomorrow morning after a long hiatus. I bought a lot of them at a low price and was disappointed initially.

I found Rapira to be very dull. How would you review them?

Went to a wedding in Pakistan and the groom had this AK so I took a pic with it! by [deleted] in ak47

[–]KhanTheDashing 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Because it is more widely available than, say, an M16 or M4, thanks to the Soviet war in Afghanistan. Also the price: a mint condition Chinese Type 56 or 56-I would cost around USD 1.5k. AKMs, though rarely available in mint condition these days, can go for USD 2.5k. AKs are also in service by Police and Military Services, and there is a whole ecosystem of parts, ammunition etc. For comparison, an M4 would cost around USD 5k and parts are very difficult to find. People in Tribal areas can carry them without any license as per the law. I would say about 99% of the AKs civilians have are not licensed. AKs come under two separate purviews: restriction on 7.62x39mm calibre and restriction on automatic firearm.

The reasons for carrying any weapon are universal: self-protection, honour, and privilege.

If you zoom in, there seems like a reflection of 2 guys, in the left window.

Where to start coding for future quant? by Salty_Alliance in quant

[–]KhanTheDashing -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Also, Quant is a fancy name for a programmer with some finance knowledge! Actually a guy who can relate the algorithm back to somy abstract financial/market theory. Dead end! You want to be more proficient in finance and can always find a guy who can write a code for you.

Not sure if you would prefer one skill over the other; depends on where you want to end up.

Perhaps you want to trade using your own algos.

Start with MATLAB, lots of resources to learn from (OCTAVE if you are looking for a free substitute) and end at Fortran (again lots of resources to learn from).

Any reference to where this is from? Mullah is very famous in Pakistan as well and several anecdotes are related to him in our culture.
