The vibe I get is that it isn't character they're really trying to judge. They're really trying to calculate whether a person is palatable to downstream players. I think there's likely some market risk associated with

Are you getting fills against the fake prices? If so, take liquidity from the fake world and hedge it by taking liquidity from the real world (on another account) and wait until the spread reverts by Robinhood coming back to reality. ;-)

Can you toss out a few use cases where I'd kill to have you guys over a traditional bank? I'm curious how you pitched yourself to YC. Did you say you were going to be a sort of venue for people looking to build custom financial s

Some of it is mental, but ultimately it does get recorded into a record-keeping system of some sort. It's too hard to always pull out the record-keeping system and keep things in it. However, when the record keeping system looks like

Break the project up into lots of little pieces. Attack the little pieces. Don't do little pieces from other projects until the little projects in your main project on the way to a major milestone are done. As someone who had your p

I like the concepts behind this framework, even if the '@' symbol is debatable. I think, combined with something like CodeSynthesis' ODB ORM (which apparently supports migrations now), something like this could be used to cr

Even if an order type like that existed, there's still the concept of "there's no such thing as a free lunch." A cost of doing business in trading is the spread between the bid and the offer. If liquidity providers tak

2.5 hours, round trip, car+train+walking (1/2 mile one way walking.) Most of the train ride is productive, but I hate walking when there's snow and ice. The summer is awesome though. I try for remote if I can get it, but can liv

Maybe whenever someone advertises remote, the pool of applicants is just huge and can't be sorted reasonably. I think the other commenters are right. Reach out to businesses and create the situation once you've established that

I apply to everything as well, but don't land anything. However, historically, nothing I've gotten that's remote has come from job ad postings. I've always gotten remote work because I know somebody who knows somebody.

If you truly lived in the moment, I'd assume your behavior would be like a random walk. The truth of the matter is that your behavior is conditioned on the past. Maybe take a course on stochastic processes to clear your mind. (I&#x27
