Secessio Plebis on Nostr: In 2012 me and another guy pitched a way to evaluate all of our option trading ...
In 2012 me and another guy pitched a way to evaluate all of our option trading portfolios. We mashed together the code for our prototype in two weeks.
A few months after we pitched the idea our team was closed down and the "real quant team" took over. Took them two years to implement a bad solution that didn't do half the stuff we had done in no time.
Being good is no what people want you to be. Especially if it puts their little empire in danger.
