That will not work for all types of search, like things related to the news (like "Paris terrorists"), and Google might block them (I think they block you for a while if you try too many searches in a short period of time).

I am an EU citizen, so I don't know much about your chances of getting an US visa, although from what I heard and from what the other commenters say, I think they are slim. However, can you try to get a job in UK? Since you are Greek,

Raah, that was the part I was looking for, I wanted to use it to learn a bit about assembly and code generation - I couldn't care less about HFT (sorry Patrick). Good luck!

Yeah, O(1) or O(1B) is the same. However, 1B is o(0.01 * (age of the company)), even though the sun will have exploded before a company who's revenue is 1 cents * its age reach 1B.

Interesting, I am myself stuck in the mids 1900 (used to be 2000+), and I feel that my tactics are quite good but it's my positional understanding that keeps me under 2100.
