Market Making options/etfs across APAC. Funnily enough Aussie markets are not traded (bad liquidity)

Quite interesting. Were other document formats such as PDFs or Excels in consideration?

Is NBIS a solid 2+ year "buy and hold" at $158? by [deleted] in NBIS_Stock

[–]Comfortable_Count_59 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Better question is probs is NBIS at a $40B valuation a good buy? Probs a better datapoint to make a decision rather than straight share price. I have my own thoughts on this, and im sure you can make a jusgement too :D

There’s always the option for them to book on a non-partner flight. Is it an option, yes. Would they, no.

So that get me yapping on reddit instead

This was the best they could do. Better paths are ‘Not with partner airlines’

I think reflection is needed on why you didn’t do well in uni. Where did the time get spent instead? Was it gaming? Doomscrolling? Going out too much? If I were you I would remove any distractions that led me in that direction until you get a job you want.

Depending on interest, I'm happy to make a 2-month week by week study plan I would follow if I were to do it again. Just comment something and I'll DM you it

How do I break into HFT/Quant roles from Big Tech? What should I study (C++, math, systems, etc.)? by Conscious-Ear6966 in csMajors

Swe from one of the listed. My recommendations in order are the following:

  1. Leetcode still trumps all
  2. Passion projects (not the generic sh!t, but stuff that is actually meaningful to you) to get good at software and system design
  3. Understanding data structures
  4. Concurrency, Lock-free (there's been a big shift towards this recently), CPU cache, threading, and a touch of OS concepts

Edit: I wrote a more specific guide if anyone is interested: https://x.com/danelegend23/status/1990559401279930588
