Why your automated trading setup keeps tripping — and how better software fixes it
Okay, so check this out—I've been living in platforms and order-routing code for a long time. Wow! The short story: cheap illusions about automation come back to bite you. Medium-term story: automated systems are tools, not miracles. Longer thought: when latency, bad data, and brittle rules combine, a plan that worked on a demo will disintegrate under real-money stress unless you design for edge cases and operational resilience, which most traders skip because they want easy wins and fast results.
Whoa! I get emotional about this. Seriously? Yes — because I’ve ...
Why Liquidity Pools Make or Break Your DEX Trade (and How Aster Dex Fits In)
Whoa!
Liquidity pools power every DEX trade you make today.
They are not just code and numbers either.
Initially I thought liquidity was simply about capital, but then realized it's really about allocation, incentives, and human behavior combined into financial software that runs 24/7, often without enough guardrails.
Here's the thing: deep liquidity, low slippage, and predictable fees are the trio that actually shapes trader experience across swaps, and if one fails the others suffer—which is why designers sweat the details endlessly.
Seriously?
Yes, seriously...

Fifty Five Earth Days Later
2025 marks the fifty fifth Earth Day. The local chapter of the Citizen's Climate Lobby and our NAOMI friends invite you to celebrate another Beloved Community Earth Day in Wausau at Westview Terrace Park (1501 Bissell St) at 10 AM on Saturday, April 26th.
Wisconsin and Earth Day go back a long way together. Truth be told, without Wisconsin Earth Day might not even exist. Horrified by a disastrous oil spill off the coast of California in 1969, our own Senator Gaylord Nelson conceived and set in motion the gears that made Earth Day 1970 a phenomenon to be ...
Where’s Tom Tiffany
Where: Thursday, March 20, noon at 2620 Stewart Avenue, public sidewalk.
LAST SEEN: Ducking in and out and avoiding his constituents. Yet sadly, he is invited as the special guest to an anti-trans event featuring Riley Gaines at the Hilton Garden Inn Rib Mountain, March 18 at noon by Mom’s for Liberty and can back that whole heartedly. Obviously he does not represent everyone in his community.
WHERE HE IS NOT: Not standing up for Veterans, Farmers, or Seniors. (Who needs them when you have billionaire donors).
PROBABLY: Somewhere helping Trump and Musk ...
Citizen Action Medicaid Town Hall Wausau
It's important to note that Medicaid has not yet been cut. The fight continues and it's time for all of us to get involved. The budget resolution directs the budget outlines for various finance committees, which now will deliberate about how to proceed. The Energy & Commerce committee, which oversees Medicaid, was tasked with an $880 billion cut over the next ten years—approximately 10% of Medicaid's cost over that time. It is expected that these cuts will come from the program.
Make no mistake: these budget cuts will cost lives. One million Wiscon...

Who should be concerned, and why?
First, Trump and Musk are eliminating jobs in the CDC and the NIH at alarming rates. These people have 20 twenty years or more of ...
