Been a while since I've posted but here is what I know: Gold & Silver. A lot of people who trade commodities are actually moving portions of their investments into Bitcoins. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if there are a

Nice work - really like it. I'm definitely digging the clean layout and presentation of everything. Only small gripe I had with it was that the navigation was a little small which could be somewhat cumbersome for some users but overall

Interested in what you guys have. I signed up! One note that you have probably already thought of is make sure to have multiple options. In the working world, it seems to me that the hardest thing to do is find time for cooking good meals.

I've had a theory for a while. Can you use technical stock indicators (such as bollinger bands/SMAs) on natural data sets such as crime? The theory would say yes since the formulas used aren't specific to the market - they&#x

Are you looking for a programming challenge or something? I've got an idea off the top of my head that I'd love to share but don't know what kind of experience you have/looking for.

Second this as well. In previous positions I've held, I first looked for track record, projects, or work experience that helped me gauge competency. Grades was something I actually looked at last. Might be my hiring methodology but if

Probably my biggest advice is be prepared for lots of changes. Startups are extremely dynamic and have lots of shifts with direction of the company, product builds, and much more. Learn to be adaptable. Other big advice is don't be afr

I'll throw my hat in the ring on this one. Just applied to a job and got a response saying: "Thank you for your interest in the ! Your resume appears to have many of the relevant skills we are looking for in our open * posit

- Workout - If you run into a problem, fight for it. If you can't figure it out, take a break and go for a walk. - Disengage when it is personal time - Get PLENTY of sleep (cannot stress this enough) and... biggest thing I've lear

I guess it depends on what the data is. I've got a couple ideas on what I could use it for but that is just off of assumptions of data they use. Maybe have some more info on the homepage when you get it?

Great advice. Its all in my head at this point so this seems like the logical next step. I think this will also help me refine the pitch as well. Thanks a bunch!

Cheers, thanks for the advice. Learning to program is definitely a barrier since much of the formulas I'm looking at using would require bit of power (makes me lean towards Python or Javascript - depending on end use). I'm pretty

Great idea, thanks a ton. Thinking on it, it may be that my pitch to them is too complicated or convoluted. Its not their realm to know stocks (typically) so creating the pitch to peak their interest is a good starting point. Thanks again!

Possibly. What would deter me is having to convince the people I communicate often to use it as well. If it was something as simple as adding an extension to a text messaging system (much like an extension for Chrome) then I would be extrem

Not too much but one thing it really did for me was force me to research more about data collection and who knows what. I downloaded a couple tools such as Tor for specific things that I don't really want connected to me in the future.

Good question. What I've done in the past is picked 5 companies that are widely traded (V, TSLA, AAPL, GOOG, etc.) in markets that you know. From there, develop out a few different strategies of what you want to test (formulas, graphin
