A lot of my friends who leave pods are in limbo today (some by choice, some not). Not sure what to make of it

@christinaqi Average career length in pod structure funds is ranging from 1.8-3 years. Really seems like only the top pods are surviving, with the small pods dying off, respawning, then dying again. Lots of MFE programs are recommending not to pursue this as the careers are so short-term.

@christinaqi Man quantopian was epic , so so underrated.
I miss. I miss

It's been a while since I've seen a hedge fund raise GP/VC funding instead of LP funding. My hedge fund pulled this off 10+ years ago, but that was during the Quantopian era (sad that few remember Quantopian btw - I think they would've thrived with AI today). It's like the Spiderman meme cuz both VCs and HFs invest, just in early vs. post-IPO companies, usually. For a hedge fund to pull off seed funding, there either has to be an exit opportunity (if raising from VCs), an opportunity to invest in the fund (if raising from SFOs), or some crypto token thingy which is over my head lol.
It's funny how THAT was my first impression when reading this (vs. everyone else being amazed by the "AI hedge fund" part). @chriskong118 @aaditsh Thanks for tagging me!
I'll post separately about why AI hedge funds are starting to finally scale, when it's been talked about for so many years and seen so little success until recently.

Long-haul trucker, futures trader.
Spent the last few months using AI to systematize my trading. months of trial and error paying in different groups to dial in a workflow that actually compounds. Some worth it, most not.
Would there be interest in a community where I share the prompts + process so you can skip the trial part?
Reply if so.

@christinaqi Interested and did apply but didn't hear back last time neither a rejection!

We're hiring a salesperson with market data knowledge. Extremely competitive comp, even compared to your quant job. ;)
We're ex-Two Sigma, Flow Traders, Belvedere, Citadel, Tower Research, etc. Fiat-heavy, I don't think we have any ex-crypto folks yet but we're open to it. We've had 0 turnover for the past year+.
We're okay with hiring someone with 0 sales experience but w/market data API knowledge, OR market data sales experience at a similar firm.
Lmk if interested in learning more.

@christinaqi why we're you fired / or in general why are people fired curious to know
English

I'll try a rephrase: Tier 1 firms are extremely efficient. They hire and fire the "right" people for the most part. So when someone "leaves" the firm, chances are they were fired, and for good reasons. So other firms take note of that and might not want to hire them. (Btw this is nothing personal, I have tons of friends who were fired, myself included LOL.)

@christinaqi Human biases tend to make the mind wander…. I’m sure it takes time to mold a person to fit into what you want and even with that the prior experience of the other firm will still be there Is that what you’re describing?

Zhipu AI just dropped a $3 model that beats GPT-5.4.
It is called GLM 5.1.
It just took 3rd place on the Code Arena charts.
Claude Max costs up to 200 dollars a month.
GLM 5.1 gives you 94 percent of Claude's power for just 3 dollars.
But here is the crazy part.
It works completely alone for 8 hours straight.
You give it a huge task in the morning.
You walk away and do your actual job.
At the end of the day, your code is done, tested, and fixed.
It is not a simple chatbot.
It is an AI worker that builds landing pages and email flows for you.
Stop doing the busy work yourself.

FDA said it’s moving to restrict copycat GLP-1 ingredients used in mass-marketed compounded weight loss drugs, calling out companies including $HIMS & Hers.
The agency said compounded products can’t be marketed as “generic” or “equivalent” to FDA-approved GLP-1s, and violators could face enforcement actions like seizure or injunction.

We're not gonna bend over backwards to be the cheapest company and win over the least-knowledgeable customers, who happen to be the highest-maintenance ones. Someone asked why exchanges don't care about retail customers - it's cuz 100,000 retail customers is equivalent to 1 institutional customer in terms of revenue. So yall should be grateful that some data startups do cater to retail traders (who mostly think data should be free lmao). If data is free why start a data company. How can a data company exist or scale. 🤦♀️
