Yes, they receive payment for routing their order flow to specific market makers. KCG (Knight Capital) and Citadel are the two players that typically get the vast majority of the retail order flow. Two Sigma is starting to get in the busine

It is pretty simple: network effects. Nearly every trader, sales person, and investment manager in finance has a bloomberg terminal which is guaranteed to own a lot of screen real estate on their monitors. If you need to get in touch with s

I don't think problem with ebikes is power. Safety becomes a huge issue above 20 MPH both for the rider and bystanders. Instead, ebike adoption seems to be limited by style, weight, and affordability. Riide[1] is one company I've

Yes agreed, but the real question is why can they guarantee that your item will ship sooner if you select one-day shipping. They can conveniently get your item on the truck much more quickly (1 vs 3 days) if you are willing to pay extra for

Unfortunately, the people who are likely to be most negatively impacted by an incident like this (relatively smaller amounts taken across a large number of accounts) are not in the position to have multiple bank accounts. Someone who is liv

When Robinhood was first announced a few years ago, I was excited that the retail brokerage industry was becoming more accessible for a number of reasons. Most obviously, we live in a capitalistic society, and inherently those who are able

Uber really doesn't have that great of a value proposition in NYC IMHO. While Uber provides a huge value add in most markets via markedly lower rates and the convenience of not finding a taxi, this is not the case in NYC. Drivers still

One main benefit of https is confidentiality, but for OSS downloads it more importantly provides an integrity and authentication benefit as well. Sure checksums and/or package signing should provide the same benefit, but most users can

A slight tangent, but I am still shocked that many open source projects lack downloads via https (including PostgreSQL). Sure you can offer some layer of security by signing the distributions, but ultimately users are lazy.

@malcolmhere keep up the great work. I have always found the current resources to be lacking especially in terms of implementation examples. One suggestion would be to remove the Chase logo in your SQL injection examples. It is just begging

I think one of the most interesting aspects of the article is the concerns over Zynga's dependency on facebook, especially with the recent unveiling of Google Plus. Could the demise of facebook be in the not too distant future? Probably not

There are many answers to your question, but when it comes down to it, you are probably looking for someone who can network. Now I don't mean go hire the douche popular jock whose daddy has some fancy title at a 500 company. Instead look fo

Right but if BankSimple just uses 1 large slush account in each bank, then they can only be insured up to $250,000. And you are not allowed to have multiple accounts at the same bank that are FDIC insured so it is not possible for BankSimpl
