Replit is used a lot in this context. Their agent is good, but their circumvent-policies-to-get-something-in-front-of-execs-quickly is an amazing and mis-priced feature.

Strats as a role has been downplayed and realigned a lot over the last several years. Traditionally, a strat was indeed a "quantitative strategist" that sat on the desk, often next to voice traders, developing tools, pricing model

Goldman has done this for decades, pushing it even further by having developed their own language (Slang), graph db (SecDB), and IDE (SecView). Many engineers resist working it in, but for any strat it's mandatory.

If this and/or the policies, leadership, and mindset that enable these kinds of things interest you, I highly recommend Abundance by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson. IIRC, they outline data centers in space in his utopian introduction.

What the "right answer" is will vary widely on application and analyst. That's one reason there are so many coordinate ref systems. If you keep everything in 3857, you'll get answers in ~meters, but whether that's &

You're right. Thinking back, I think I asked "what's the average distance" not "what's most probable".

You have two random uniform variables and the distance/difference/change between to finite points. Put another way (and code it up if you want). Select two random uniformly distributed points between 0 and 1. Do this 10_000 time

Agree, but I do think there are real clinical benefits to short trials like this. For example, it's good to have evidence that one could quickly improve their cardiometabolic health immediately after a cardiovascular event just by swit
