   I imagine the author used this as an excuse to play around with Spark. If it were me doing this for work, yeah I'd drop this in Postgres. Most of these analyses would be short SQL queries.

   Err, are you sure you can't take a capital loss on the $1,031.25 spread? Not that I would benefit personally. I am still burning through years of capital loss carryover from ZNGA.

   Or, just like software engineering or any other profession in the world, there's going to be a need for people to solve hard problems and people to solve easy problems. Data science isn't different.

    This is really impressive. It helps that whoever is building these is clearly really talented in 2d animation.

    Part of the issue is that the author goes through no effort to actually explain WTF they are talking about, while making it sound like these startups are raising capital with no equity on the line.

    The author is contrasting "venture deals" against "borrowing capital" so I'm pretty sure they mean conventional loans with banks. EDIT: The author is totally talking about venture debt and buried the lede. So yes, c

    Someone, I think it was Copyblogger and others, convinced people that to create "evergreen content" you should take dates off articles and blog posts. The web has been worse off for this advice.
