I work at a trading firm. RIP to the GOAT, the god of quants.Reading about him and RenTec, back in high school, was one of the first things that got me attracted to the field.

Any good resources to learn about that?

Hope they fire SVB UK's head of risk assessment. They definitely don't want total wokesters like her running things.

What does my post have to do with Hindus having/not having a land of their own?

Not all of us Indians are Hindus and have some caste assigned to us.

Most immigration to the US was white based till 1965.

The issue is that Americans with half-baked knowledge think that all Indians have a caste assigned to them, or that India has a national level caste allocation policy. For American…

Thanks for sharing that with me. I'd like to respond to this OP (don't have a Twitter account): https://twitter.com/mSanterre/status/1622015664042164224 I actually have done one of…

My bad! Should've said "water is wet" or maybe run my response through ChatGPT, maybe that'd have caught it and offered a replacement!

My point exactly. If I interpret OP's statement correctly, that chatGPT can build complex systems from scratch in 10 years. Then according to that statement, the only adaptation is…

So, a LLM, trained extensively on StackOverflow and other data (possibly the plethora of LC solutions out there), is fed a bunch of LC questions and spits out the correct solutions…

I work in the HFT space. Jane Street in not an HFT, they are not trading in a very latency sensitive asset class.

Both. If one is on a competitive exchange or a latency-sensitive asset class, need to be both smart and fast. Also, strategies change all the time and are mostly the domain of quan…

I work at an HFT. I am expecting most of the major firms, especially Citadel Securities, lobby hard against this. While non-competes on our side are paid, they're a pain in the ass…

I work for a market maker. Have a maximum possible one year NC. Thinking of doing something similar in case my firm slams me with NC > 6 months, when I resign.

I write low latency C++ for a living. Read "A Tour of C++", focusing on the STL and the basics of the language, basics of templates. Anything else related to STL, look at cpprefere…

Not all of them do it that way. The HFT I work with, pays the greater of base salary or 75% of base+bonus averaged over the last two years.

One of the best quant firms, TGS, is located in CA and enforces non-competes no problem. They had an employee sue, his NC got waived but he had to pay 7-figures to TGS.

This! Tech influencers on YouTube are using these bad examples, to scare people into believing that ChatGPT will take over programming jobs. The day when AI technology can fix bugs…

Interesting, thank you very much.
