If you're interested enough, read Gregory Zuckerman - "The Man Who Solved the Market: How Jim Simons Launched the Quant Revolution" (2019) The first half of the book goes over the academic history of quant trading.

Twitter is much worse than HN or Reddit about this. The author hits the nail on the head that Twitter in any news- or article-sharing context is about dunking on headlines. Read the headline, tweet a one-liner reply or quote. I don't t

Is there a public fork somewhere where I can see the skeleton for making it support multiple languages? I've profiled .NET in k8s and think I could contribute .NET support, but I'm not sure how you want to add and call additional

I did it in .NET Core a bit less effortlessly, by adding a sidecar with some profiling tools, adding a few environment variables to the .NET Core process, and execing into the sidecar. Instructions: [0]. I believe kubectl-flame can support

You would definitely benefit from doing general backend side projects and reading before reading this book. I don't think you'll have enough context for it otherwise. However, the book is definitely relevant to mobile applications

I already have Designing Data-Intensive Applications (2017), do you think I would get much more out of that book?

It's called Shadow IT and it has plagued corporations for decades. Ironically Excel is often the tool of choice, and it happened in an org I was in. A finance team had an Excel workbook they used to calculate payouts to different stake

Thanks for the industry insight. 1 and 2 make sense from an outsider's POV. For 3, what would you envision for this test, other than normal market research / focus groups that they likely conducted? Surely you shouldn't launc
