That is only if there’s a direct correlation to price movements starting after he opens his yap on Truth Social (which, within this administration there is plenty of insider tradin…

The trading firms don’t really get anything from bribing Trump. That’s not to say hedge funds don’t want to tickle the big guy’s ego, but they don’t need “faster data” in most case…

If I had to venture a guess (and full disclosure I’m not currently working in the space, and am not privy to conversations about actually buying this product), the 100k/m for whate…

I don’t say this lightly, and confess I haven’t dug in very deeply yet, but this is one of the most hot shit uses of ML I think I’ve stumbled across yet. If this does what I think …

The entirety of modern financial markets is simply incremental distributed state machines.

I think that's precisely what the previous commenter is saying. Sit on the side lines, and let other people bloody themselves up. Similar in a way to dot com. It's not to say ML wo…

One of those silly little issues with inbuilt software that drives me insane is the number of times I’ve had to log back into Apple Music or Spotify (or one of the video services t…

I think what’s become more interesting/impactful for me is why they elect not to support it. Most firms moving away from it (or who never implemented it) seem determined to either …

Amusingly for the security information processors in the US (which handle US Equity consolidated quote and trade data) the trade feed is still referred to as the tape (one of the t…

It existed prior to GME as well, which really should tell you that anyone who is using this is going against people who have spent the last decade at least perfecting signals based…

And to extend this, low frequency does not mean slow speed. HFT mostly covers how often you are trading. Some low frequency strategies require near instantaneous (sub microsecond) …

While true (I 100% agree with you in the distinction), the statement is “Your agent acts before the market does”, which is simply not going to be the case (assuming this is helping…

I was trying to think of a way to word this exact argument. I think it’s especially easy when your business technology is not your primary means of revenue generation. Having these…

Easier to justify monthly costs than big capital asks (even if your infra is depreciated at a normal rate) is where I think many saw (incorrectly) cost savings. It’s also a bit of …

> I've never seen anything like it for a technically optional tool Cloud had a very similar vibe when it was really running advertising to CIO/CTOs hard. Everything had to be jamme…

Interestingly the realm in which I have domain experience has similar constraints, but based primarily on physical transport latency and less on bandwidth. There has been a move in…

Oh, I have no doubt it is functionally efficient. I'm just amazed given the system deployments I've been party to, and the tiny amount of per rack energy usage comparatively speaki…

200 kW/rack is absolutely insane to me. The power consumption of these facilities is just...ridiculous.

That is interesting. Never considered trying to throw one or two into a loop together to try to keep it honest. Appreciate the Visor recommendation, I'll give it a look and see if …

I think that's the issue I have with using these tools so far (definitely professionally, but even in pet projects for embedded systems). The mental load of having to go back throu…

I know I'm running a bit late to the party here, but maybe someone can provide some color that I (on the slightly older end of the spectrum when it comes to this) don't fully under…

That explains why the effects looked so similar in the two... Never did get into Babylon 5, but SeaQuest, for all its campiness, was my jam briefly in my childhood.

Can't speak for ML training, but I absolutely love using the OODA loop as a simplification of the decision and operating pattern in competitive industries. Boyd really did put toge…

Yeah, I think the issue has more to do with the curiosity level of the participant rather than whether they are a business domain expert or a software engineering expert. There’s a…

I worked in the Swedish office of a multinational for a couple of years and the one experience I had where Swedes were selling a complex multi-million euro project to Germans was o…
