Quants are still in demand and getting paid a fortune. It's the thing that makes me think of going back. An averagely-competent C++ developer can make much more in this industry than elsewhere right now. As for the stress and greener pastures bit, really you aren't wrong.

  If you have any experience with concurrent programming and XDP or DPDK, I'm seeing roles advertised at 600k in NYC.

    What is XDP or DPDK? Can't find it in google. Is it something related to kernel bypassing? How does one get this kind of experience?
