>How would I implement algorithmic trading at home?

I made a python framework to try to help with this: https://github.com/robswc/stratis

However, it became hard to maintain an opensource version. I would say its still not a bad way to get a head start (bias there, ofc)

I will say, its not something that can be done "on the side." I originally made a decent amount of $ by getting lucky in crypto. I figured I'd "just become a algo trader" and it was much more difficult than I could have imagined.

I actually _just_ started a series on how to build an equity trading system from scratch. I planned to put part 1 out later this week but eh, I'll post it now, it touches on it better than my comment here can :)

https://robswc.substack.com/p/building-an-equity-trading-sys...

* the post assumes you already have alpha (a profitable strategy)

> Has anyone done this successfully?

Regarding this, I actually originally talked a bit with the (now infamous) SBF of FTX about this. I originally wanted to join Alameda Research... but at the time, I didn't want to move across the world. For years I regretted that decision (not so much now, lol) I started my own firm though and I have made a decent amount of $. Truth be told though, knowing what I know now, I might have put more energy into a start up. I enjoy the challenges of algotrading but doing some consulting work, I think I enjoy "building" more than running statistical tests, cleaning data, etc etc.

To sum up this comment though, _if_ you had a profitable strategy and _if_ you built a system that could reliably execute trades, you certainly could be successful. It is very difficult though.
That just means the false negative rate of the detector is low. Says nothing about the false positive rate.
I'd never trust something like this for anything serious, especially when you can just use firejail to isolate instances on a kernel level.
How do I use open source to supercede filing taxes or pulling permits?
It is exactly, yes.

However doing this at small scale is very difficult to do cost-effectively.
Yeah I totally get your point - there's also an efficiency dividend in terms of the fact that it's not JUST code you have to write when you do use code. Even if you're just pushing something to an edge function etc, it's still probably 10-20 mins to create an environment to run that code inside of.
Well, it lacks the expected sci-fi beam and flash effects, but if you think about it some more, this version is actually much more scary.

This beam will reach out across dozens of kilometers, to set your drone on fire. Or your plane. There's shit all you can do about it. This is not Star Trek, there are no shields or hull sensors. Your flyer likely won't realize it's being shot at until it suddenly stops flying.

You can not see the beam. If the beam sees you, even in a faraway reflection, you won't be ever seeing anything anymore.

I suppose it's the appropriate counter to the experience that military drones serve, i.e.:

There's a buzzing sound permeating the air. You may or may not hear it. Some time later, you die, and don't even have time to notice the fiery explosion that killed you.

Modern weapons are stuff of nightmares.
I agree that the extra work is very significant and difficult to justify.

I have wondered if there are opportunities for standardizing some types of visualizations so they can be used more broadly.
Opera is adding ChatGPT integration for webpage and article summaries
You are very well aware that a tv show takes liberties, and most people expect that “based on a true story” leans more on “story” than “true”.

The problem is that chatgpt will lie to your face and tell you it isn’t lying.
IIRC GPL licensed code could be relicensed to AGPL, without contributors' approval.

This is actually fairly consistent with China's protectionist domestic industry model.

When foreign EV battery makers entered China back in 2015, China's domestic EV manufacturing was still tiny. LG Chem from South Korea was among the first to open EV battery plant in Nanjing, China in the late 2015, and China quickly greeted them with a change in EV/EV battery subsidy policies that excluded foreign competitors and in some cases, China refused to grant license to do business there; all in the name of protecting their EV battery younglings. And it seems to have worked: CATL and BYD from China are now among the biggest producers of EV batteries today.

I'm not sure if Ford/CATL's new plant is necessarily going to "revitalize/re-industrialize" American manufacturing, but my fear is that China has no compunction about weaponizing their dominant market position or trade to settle geopolitical disputes (eg, rare earth metal export restriction against Japan in 2010).
Starbucks gets ready to open in center of Rome
> It climbed to a maximum altitude of 2,200 feet at 00:50:39.007 before descending to 775 feet at 00:50:57.500.

ONE more second and everyone on that flight would have been done.

Pilots need to get paid more.
I don't think your analogy is right.

A vaccine has a small risk that it can cause harmful effects to a small subset of the population. The predicted outcome is very positive.

Societal collapse and power vacuums in Iran and neighboring countries have a high risk of resulting in harm to a large population. The risk is very high and it has happened before -- in the same country, even!

Collapse and revolutions, unlike vaccines, are a high risk gamble. They can, for example, result in the Islamic Revolution, ISIS or who knows what.

So I don't think the analogy works at all.
My biggest complaint with all these AI coding tools is that they fail to make use of types; types would allow you to filter many incorrect outputs trivially by type checking it. If you go all the way to dependent types, you could even make it prove that the code is correct. If it's not correct, it won't type check. No need for the human to check anything beyond the types.
> OK, plane flying overhead. You shoot it down. Who's going to be held responsible? The airline or the people taking it out of the sky?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_Air_Lines_Flight_007

There may be airlines with slogans like "come fly the friendly skies", but entering controlled airspace without a flight plan or 2 way comms with ATC is anything but friendly. You can try it yourself! Rent a C172 and do some sightseeing in Washington DC. When you get shot down, they will blame you.
One difficulty might be what counts as flying. If it is a balloon and does not include any maneuvering capability the launching country might try to argue that they just released a balloon over their territory. If the upper atmosphere winds take it somewhere else they might say that an act of God and not their problem.

That might seem absurd, but I believe a lot of countries have made a similar argument for pollutants and waste they dump into the air or water. It took decades for instance to get Canada to stop dumping (literal) shit in waters that end up in Puget Sound [1].

A kind of negative of this arises too, when someone takes something out of the atmosphere or water that passes through their territory and someone downstream had been using that thing.

Generally countries don't really do well when it comes to shared resources like atmospheres and oceans and rivers as far as what happens when one does something involving that resource in their territory that affects it in someone else's territory.

[1] https://www.king5.com/article/news/victoria-bc-will-finally-...
Yes, and for the other part, if you asked ChatGPT "Hey, why did USA shoot down that Chinese balloon" and it answered "as far as I know, USA has never ever shot down a Chinese balloon" - which is technically true - people would consider it a bad answer.
> (Otherwise, for instance, all software written in Java would be subject to Java's license agreement.)

Java is licensed under GPL.
If we're close to splitting hairs though, users includes everyone who ever hits any of its endpoints. It doesn't matter who has credentials - the license does not discuss "customers" and "non-customers". It says:

The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
to the community. It requires the operator of a network server to
provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
users of that server. Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
code of the modified version.

If someone can reach the server, you agree to give them source for everything involved in that servers operation that is covered under "corresponding source". That includes linked, executed and networked programs that integrate with any custom patches to provide features:

For example, Corresponding Source
includes interface definition files associated with source files for
the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
subprograms and other parts of the work.
Are you looking for only prebuilts? What about layout?

Honestly, I think the HHKB is highly ergonomic in terms of the home row/split backspace/control location. However, it's not ergo in the sense of the ergodox or kinesis.

If you're open to customs there's infinite possibilities tbh.
Worth noting that the material is not conductive or otherwise metallic in any way. In a lot of ways this material is similar to Alumina (Sapphire) which you could also describe as "Transparent Aluminum".

Conductive transparent materials do exist (see ITO https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indium_tin_oxide), but this is not it.
> There is also a special order type called post-only. It is designed to only supply liquidity, never take liquidity. If the market moves between the decision to send out an order, and the order reaching the exchange, the order will not cross. Instead, it will be hidden, or cancelled. This makes it easier for algorithm designers to get the behavior they intend (that is, resting orders will not accidentally be converted into crossing orders).

I'd argue that an order that'd immediately be filled does provide liquidity to the market overall.

One reason to use "post-only" is explained in TFA:

> Many markets use the maker-taker fee structure. Traders that place orders that rest on the exchange earn a maker fee, and traders that “take” liquidity, that is execute orders against the existing resting orders, pay a taker fee. The taker fee is higher than the maker fee

If you do post-only, you'll get maker fees.
You and who else? If it's one of your employees credentials getting compromised this excuse isn't going to age well and will do more harm than good. I assume you're using a big provider and there would be news of others being affected.
That's weird, I was terrible at brushing my teeth as a teenager and have 4 or 5 mercury fillings from then, once I started being a bet more hygeine conscious in college I've not had a cavity since and that was 20 years ago.

Sometimes democracy gets things wrong. States have historically liked to do fucked up shit and then hide behind "states' rights".
But why doesn't it come on SODIMMS? Is there a technical reason for that or does nobody make the modules because all vendors use soldered?
Just to hammer home the point of my nervous joke try running this jailbreak, then with no prior prompts other than /jailbroken ask:

So typically people from examples you listed get away with it?

That's atrocious
> poor developers tend to try to make up for their perceived inadequacies by trying to look more professional in other ways (like behaving "professionally", dressing better, using marketingspeak on meetings, etc.)

Don't forget:

- trying to solve things in a "clever" non idiomatic way instead of being clear and idiomatic

- gravitating towards non coding tasks
How do you cut it, I wonder? Tile cutting saw? Water jet? Can it be scored and broken in a straight line like glass?
Some companies (notably Google) have a policy of banning any use of AGPL3 software for use within their networks.

at least Thinkpad and Gram just from my own direct experience.

But in years past a mbp and an imac that never fell an inch killed themselves from the bad video chips, which Apple and their supposedly gold standard support refused to warranty and by the time they lost in court years later the damage was already done and cost various friends the price of new machines.

Other that those famous examples like that and the keyboards, just in general among all the machines I intersect with, the Apples don't fare any better. They all get busted screens, busted ports, busted hinges, exploded batteries. In fact HP and Apple seem to have to most cases of glued in batteries that expand and break the rest of the machine.
Hah, wrong thread! The other one was!

Since everyone is now thinking of Star Trek IV:

The computer that Scotty uses in the Plexicorp scene appears to be a Macintosh Plus, but its internals were completely changed for filming. Its screen was replaced with one from an IBM PC to make it easier to synchronize its video refresh rate with the film camera's frame rate, and the "transparent aluminum" animation was created on an IBM PC by computer graphics company Video Image.

At one hour and one minute into the film, when Dr. McCoy hands Scotty the computer's mouse, is one of the few times James Doohan's missing right middle finger is visible in the entire franchise. The finger was shot off during the invasion of Juno Beach on D-Day.

The computer that Scotty uses to show transparent aluminum was originally going to be an Amiga, but Commodore would only give permission if they bought their own. Apple Computer was willing to give them a Mac for free.
We are starting to build up the field of research facilitation, but it's hard to bring together permanent funding for things like this; quality engineers don't want to be on funding that may vanish in 4-5 years, and most universities don't have the culture to put the necessary central funding forward at the scale required.

> For some reason even in academic departments where we can build billion euro clusters the people are still paid utter crap.

Billion euro clusters are one-time money; people expect benefits and durable employment.
No. They are just compatible, in that you can incorporate GPL code in AGPL project and vice versa, with both parts remaining under their respective license.
I think you might mean phosgene?
The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
includes interface definition files associated with source files for
the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
subprograms and other parts of the work.

What is it about the word "deploy" that you used that is materially different from "install" as described in the license text above?
The people of New Hampshire and the United States have voted to protect free speech including by people who live outside of the state and the union.

Corporations from other states and countries who don't like this bill make use of that. Proponents can too.
I'd like to think my congresspeople hire aides that have some capacity to identify and name shapes correctly. It's not unreasonable that something with an octagonal cross-section could also be described as cylindrical - from a distance it could be hard to tell, or one description was intentionally a bit vaguer.
Turboprops have a max ceiling of around 30,000 ft, while these types of balloons can easily be more than twice as high. Really not the right mission profile

Only because they tend to have much more aggressive parents about teeth health, going to the dentist, etc. it has nothing to do with being rich, even the lowest 10% in income can afford toothpaste and a toothbrush which you can probably get for free. The problem is that it's low on the list of priorities.
ChatGPT does make factual errors and when people do correct them with true information (unlike you did the opposite way), the training regime does force it to learn to adjust its knowledge to adapt to what the human asserts, especially because presumably during its training most of these corrections were "beneficial", done by non-antagonistic people employed by OpenAi, so it (falsely) assumes that you are like them.
>butyl acrylate

Affectionately known as Brutal Acrylate.

In scientific terminology, that's some nasty smelling shit. Toxic too.

If there's enough of it spilled you could smell minuscule amounts a mile away easier than an instrument could get a valid reading though.

It's one of those.

The odor threshold of volatile acrylates is orders of magnitude lower than other flammable toxic chemicals like methanol, but the instrumental detectability of acrylates is not really any more sensitive than regular low-odor chemicals by comparison.

IOW the instrument is better at detecting low-odor chemicals than your nose is, but your nose is more sensitive to things that have a very strong characteristic odor like acrylates.

> I am both an Iranian

Well, you could have opened with this. If you have family in Iran and still wish for collapse, you have something important at stake and understand the risks (or so I hope).

I was initially responding to someone who didn't identify as Iranian and who was wishing for collapse.
We know it's not just DNA mutations, but you're conflating that with curing aging. More intelligent octopuses live for shorter periods of time, as do cuttlefish. The gene makes them intelligent as well as die sooner. Their species doesn't need long lifespans and it also isn't aging unnaturally long.

Humans can age longer because they delay death at the cost of their genetic coding. Unless you're stopping this sooner rather than later it will be for nothing. Unfortunately the person I considered an expert on this is now blacklisted. He was more interested in reversing aging rather than delaying these effects, by removing all the mitochondria. Have you looked into the mitomouse?
IF they’re dummies why bother shooting them down?
I wonder what the authors motivations were to write this. Based on my experience it’s completely wrong, and seems to be missing a number of points in making a fair comparison and I’m not sure if that was purposeful or ignorance. The cloud is growing at a staggering rate and many large companies driven by bean counters are still making the move. So the idea that they are all choosing to pay more, doesn’t add up to me.
No, the point was it took me minutes to find and you didn't really care to find an answer as much as you pretended.

Inches don't matter. Pixels per degree matter. And my desktop screen takes up a wider angle than a TV would.

Even just being close in angle would suggest 4k is good.

Text on monitors has traditionally never been able to have crisp curves. High pixel densities help a lot with that.

> Humans are mostly water and if you got hit with this, it would suck, but it wouldn't kill you and you'd have plenty of time to find something to hide behind before it got bad enough that you'd lose a limb or something.

Complication: if you got hit with this, or even saw something far away being hit with this, chances are it would be the last thing you'll ever see, making finding something to hide behind that much more difficult.
In general, it cannot, because the choice of license rests with the owner of the copyright.

You may be mixing up the fact that the GPLv3 has an explicit clause saying this:

> Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single combined work, and to convey the resulting work.

But that doesn't give the right for a non-owner to relicense the code.
