LinkedIn is a cesspool of aspirants. Imo, don't "aspire" to be something. Don't aspire to be a software engineer. Just do the things that make you a software engineer. Don't aspire, don't think, just do. Just be whatever you want to be.

@sudoingX Thank you! 🙏

tmux is the cockpit, not the engine. reliability isn't in the panes, it's cron to kick jobs + restart-on-failure so they come back when they die + linger so the user services survive logout. babysitting tmux is the trap. and honestly, once you've got something actually worth running 24/7, the reliability part figures itself out real fast.

my workflow is just 4-6 agents running 24/7, each one spinning up a few hundred subagents a day. claude on stars, grok on builds, dedicated cursor reviewers, a hermes agent main orchestrator. all attached, all alive. people overcomplicate "agentic." it's not magic. it's 3 tools: > tmux - every agent gets a session, nothing dies when I disconnect > tailnet - I reach the beast from anywhere, phone or laptop > termius - the terminal that makes mobile actually usable I can be at dinner and check on 6 agents from my pocket. that's the unlock. genuinely cannot imagine working any other way.

@_onecookie congrats!

One month small milestone to share 😄

@tcoste110 @ethanrkho Fantastic interview! Tom, please excuse my arb on the $9.99 kindle version vs the $22.95 paper version 🙂

@ethanrkho A link to the book mentioned": amazon.com/Front-Office-R…

"I haven't seen a real new idea in trading in at least 15 years." Tom Costello (@tcoste110) ran money at Tudor, Moore Capital, and Caxton. Built one of the first NLP-driven equity systems in 2003. 20 years managing capital, never had a down year. "Comparing what a retail trader does to what a quantitative hedge fund does is like comparing driving a bus on the New Jersey Turnpike to winning a Formula One race." We cover: - His hot take: no genuinely new trading idea in 15 years — only better people doing the same things faster - Why everyone in quant finance is a genius — and why that makes you ordinary, not special - Crypto is "super smart guys cosplaying at finance" — built for retail, which is exactly why it's the easiest money in finance right now - Why AGI won't beat the hedge fund industry — all the readily-capturable alpha is already captured - The status trap: why the path that made Paul Tudor Jones a billionaire won't work for the kid trying to copy it in 2026 - His friend the investment banker who'd quit it all to run a 10-employee ambulance supply company worth $150M - Why excitement is "wildly overbid" in finance — and why wanting an exciting trading job is itself a disqualifier - The most honest end of the financial industry — and why the media has it exactly backwards Thanks so much to Tom for coming on Odds on Open! Highlights: 00:00 Intro 01:18 Building institutional credibility for early-stage managers 03:01 The Pareto distribution of hedge fund returns 04:25 Applying the Unified Field Theory of Finance to fair value 08:14 Trading against human incentives in a deterministic market 13:54 Why allocators don’t steal alpha from prospective PMs 25:16 Evaluating career edge in quantitative finance for 2026 30:48 Paul Tudor Jones and the art of game selection 33:42 Analyzing the economic viability of starting a new fund 35:16 Identifying common retail pitfalls: Mean reversion and arbitrage 38:55 Why there hasn't been a new trading idea in 15 years 50:33 Managing tail risk: Physics vs. deterministic financial distributions 59:10 Career pathing for PMs after a fund blow-up 1:07:53 SBF and FTX: Credibility vs. the "Founder-Genius" archetype 1:13:44 Establishing proof-of-concept through audited multi-year returns
