No, a computer is just a distraction. You need good environment, a teacher that can teach and is passionate about the subject, and students to be roughly on the same page. A comput…

Write better software, Firefox is unacceptably slow. If Chrome, Safari and even gulp IE make browsing smooth, then Firefox is doing something wrong. Better fonts won't fix it.

First of all, why is anyone still with them? Have the years of bad service not taught people a lesson? Don't go with the cheapest service available. I learned that lesson hard (not…

Mildly entertaining, not very practical. If you can write an algo in their box, you can write an algo + data feed handler for IB or other platforms that expose sufficient API.
