Big FP shops will have solved this of course. I doubt StanChart or Jane Street are losing any sleep over it.
- mikorym 6y agoI've heard a lot recently about Jane Street. Do you know a lot about them? I was curious to know their background in more detail and generally what kind of company it is, or the general attitude or atmosphere of the place. Also, why do you mention them specifically in the context of FP?
- goatinaboat 6y agoAlso, why do you mention them specifically in the context of FP? They are mostly famous in tech circles for one day one of their interns Yaron Minsky saying, hey let's rewrite everything in OCaml. And they did, and were wildly successful, and he's the CTO now. They bet big on FP and it happened to be an excellent fit for their problem domain.
