Than in the past? That seems untrue at face, do you have a source? Firms like JS recruit a lot of people that wouldn't have ever considered a traditional finance institution in any event.

Being able to borrow that amount might be a bubble, but depending on the fund I don't think it would damage friendships at all. If you had access to the internal Renaissance fund for example I think your friends would be happy to get i

It seems their thinking is part of what led them to JS in the first place, which is a bit of negative and maybe they had some ideas reinforced there. But I also think they were some of the more extreme ones to begin with. They obviously did

I didn't even know what a matrix was until I got to college, and I went to a supposedly well-ranked high school and was on the higher level math track. This was about 10 years ago. I think some of the education reform might've rem

I mean negative moves tend to be more volatile than positive ones, but yeah I don't think "capitalizing on tragedy" is the right way to frame it. Financial conditions during bad news events would turn out worse if there weren

JS does a lot of trading already where a few seconds don't matter. Firms like HRT and Virtu are more high frequency. Either way I don't think this would resolve the issue with siphoning talent.

Jane Street is not a huge player in HFT, they are primarily a liquidity provider and therefore actually do enable people to sell stocks during a crash. Any registered market maker has specific rules imposed by the exchange about always need

Some of that is just social conditioning though, or maybe an innate instinct but an irrational one in today's day and age. There's no reason a woman can't be the primary breadwinner, and most high earning women I know are ver

I mean there will be a delay of many years before the fixes actually happen, if that's even what the financing would go towards.

The Piazza post isn't publicly viewable, but I'm surprised you had this experience at MIT. The majority of classes I took had a ton of materials online and there were few instances where I felt I needed to go to class purely becau

It seems a small raise but yeah theoretically raising interest rates should strengthen the currency to USD, because with higher interest rates there is less reason to move the currency to USD. That's just the first order effect though.

It's not just drug trials, it's a huge proportion of biology and psychology research at least. Additionally, most research in biology is expensive to get off the ground, and in order to get funding it absolutely is important to pr

How big was their house? 3 of my 4 grandparents grew up in multi-generational houses, all of their parents were very working class, and yes they "afforded" raising kids and housing their elderly. Their houses were not bigger than

Minor in the grand scheme of things, but I thought interesting (or at least unexpected) - a bunch of rides at Disney World went down because they rely on AT&T push to talk for communication between staff, which is required for safety re

I would be curious if FedEx specifically has some sort of leak though, it's super anecdotal but I seem to get more FedEx phishing attempts when I'm expecting a FedEx package. You're right though that there are other mechanism

FedEx seems to be the worst option domestically too. Maybe it depends on your location but they're the only service that somehow fails to deliver signature required packages to my mail room. I've also tried to have them contact me

"We found a genetic marker for X" is even more fuzzy when talking about something like Schizophrenia or Autism, because the diagnosis itself is very far from a precise label. It's not just about missing environmental contribu

That's his point though, 95% of the time people say "gaslighting" now it's not the right term.

I think it depends a lot on the specifics, if the background noise is loud and persistent enough it makes it harder to understand the other person. Hard to tell from OP's description but I'm guessing it was actively impacting the

Eh, some of the people I know with the worst WLB are people that do not take work that seriously during working hours. They end up living at the office basically because it takes longer for them to finish their tasks and they also end up wi

I think the lifestyle part depends a lot on where in the US OP would end up. Places like Boston and NYC are not car-dependent at all and most people you will meet are a normal weight and have a decent diet. There is also a ton of cultural d

I'm not sure about hiring in 3D graphics but my resume has two somewhat different paths on it and I've always made 2 separate resumes just by switching around the focus/how I frame things. Like the main header would have the

I think it's pretty normal to get a learner's permit like a year before your license, so you can theoretically do the 50 hours with a parent. But I've never seen that part formally enforced, you could just do nothing until yo

Retractions can be healthy but in this case it seems to have taken a good deal of effort from another group, which isn't the best sign about the process of the original authors or the journal. It's true there will probably be an i

I agree, a lot of unmaintained code is due to turnover of staff and few considering the software as an important output in its own right. But I don't think it would be that hard to find grad students/postdocs who would care about

I'm sure there are some obnoxious people out there, but also I think there is a bit of a social hit resulting directly from the poor functionality. People are often lazy and/or not super tech literate, so for example when someone

They don't need to open iMessage IMO, they just need to use better practices for text messaging between iPhone/Android. Like images are downsampled to hell if a single Android user is in an iPhone group chat -- but any time I&#x27

If the NYC <> Boston bullet train ever happens, Boston will be such an ideal place to live. I already prefer it to NYC personally, but it's true there are "tier 1 global city" things it can't offer. But if it becom

Finance is pretty meta itself, which is probably a contributing factor to NYC having such a diversified economy. Like an automotive company might still want a business-focused office in NYC, but a non-automotive company doesn't have mu

A lot of schools remained remote in fall 2020 - depended on the school, and it's not exactly easy to switch between districts. Also, the quality of instruction in spring 2020 was absolutely affected as teachers adapted to remote and ev
