Two books that I might recommend for others that are interested are: Trading and Exchanges: Market Microstructure for Practitioners (cost of this on Amazon seems to have more than doubled since I bought it 11 years ago) Algorithmic Trading

StartOpz ( https://www.startopz.com ) is expense reporting, time-off tracking, and what not for small businesses. I had hoped to make it basically a Workday-light. The launch kind of ran into having a second kid and it wasn't

How do you like the Concept2 and rowing machines in general? I would prefer a treadmill but I don't have a good space for one. Do you get a decent cardio workout with it?

So on point. Sharepoint is awful. Confluence is the worst except for all other knowledge base software. I guess this space is so boring that we aren't seeing any exciting startups tackling it and giving the incumbants reason to innovat

I had a similar experience (wrote about it here: https://blog.startopz.com/2019/02/21/the-downside-to-getting... ). I was looking at a to do list that I couldn't accomplish in a year. The biggest issue I

I had an idea for a similar project last year. I thought it could perform a few functions: 1. Help compile a list of local issues 2. Empower people to help fix those issues (recognizing the different people can help out in different ways on

Your response seems quite cynical to me. Quantopian has been around for a while. They scratched the itch that a lot of programmers have of building an automated trading system and beating the market. Quantopian allowed them to test their tr

I feel like SharePoint and Google Docs are fundamentally different products that Confluence. Looking for a Confluence competitor with permissions, version tracking, templates, and search but don't feel like I have found a good alternat

I have the same card and have issues with locking up and crashing in both Windows and Linux. It looks like the kernel in Ubuntu 20.10 might have a fix for some of issues.

I am not the OP but I exclusively listen to podcasts on my desktop and have done it that way since I stopped using an ipod a decade ago. There are three business podcasts I take notes on in Google Docs. So I can see the utility. I think a j

Between Confluence, Salesforce, Azure portal, and Addepar, I am starting to wonder if I am the one that is insane in expecting web pages to load in under seven to ten seconds. Typing in Asana is painful as well.

I have one of them for work and I like it in general. Nice screen. Quite fast. Having the function key in the bottom left gets me (I use control+[ as my vim escape key) is slightly annoying but nothing to do there. There are two issues that
