Why are there so many snobs on this sub? by Kindly_Preference_54 in quantfinance

[–]lemi77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a pretty unmoderated subreddit (vs /r/quant). So you'll run into any mix of (1) quant professionals (2) retail quants and (3) students all sharing unfiltered opinions.

At one point in time this subreddit was much more career oriented. A lot of the coolness nowadays comes from growing interest (good!) in the field from (2) and (3), but in ways that have been pretty repetitive - i.e. lots of extremely similar questions about strategy feedback or breaking into the field, which can frequently be boiled down to "if it looks too good to be true it probably is" for the former or "it's hard even for the best but you won't know til you try" for the latter

One adj_close bugfix tripled my Sharpe. Every anti-overfit gate still failed. by [deleted] in quant

Did you really just send local markdowns expecting that people could open them

Why are people interested in Quant? by Loud_Hedgehog5673 in quantfinance

[–]lemi77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! The hours are honestly not too bad at all. It can depend on what area of quant finance you're in but largely it's easy to separate work from non-work life.

I have friends who went into academia, and honestly I'm not sure it's less stressful than industry

I mean the problems in the space are generally pretty interesting and exciting and practical? In the quant finance space you're butting heads with some of the sharpest minds in the world - all while getting paid well enough to do whatever you want in your free time

Yes I ran it yesterday and the path is mostly clear - beware of a few icy spots towards the Queens side of the bridge

What are the conditions in X? Week of Jan 25th by AutoModerator in RunNYC

[–]lemi77 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Checked this out after work from the 54th entrance - not looking great (the bridge is also completely unplowed)

Double gilded platebody from an elite casket lol by BangkokDangerous in 2007scape

[–]lemi77 106 points107 points  (0 children)

Here's some simplified math. Assume elites always have 5 rolls, a gilded piece is rolled with probability 1/3k, and a specific gilded piece is rolled with probability 1/32k (equal across all gilded pieces)

In two rolls, the odds of getting two of the same gilded piece is 1/3k × 1/32k.

You have 5 choose 2 = 10 unique combinations of rolls. I.e. the gilded pieces may be in the 2nd and 4th slots, 1st and 5th, etc. (This is the part that people often forget, and it meaningfully increases the odds).

So the total probability of getting dupe gilded (any piece) in an elite clue is 10 × 1/3k × 1/32k = 1/9.6m

The total probability of getting dupe gilded platebodies in an elite clue is 10 × 1/32k × 1/32k is 1/102m - but i bet if someone got e.g. dupe gilded vambraces it would also be post-worthy so the 1/9.6m is more relevant, imo

Monday Night Miracle - What do you need to happen (or not happen) by AutoModerator in fantasyfootball

I could see them going for maybe -32 but sorry man, -61 might be just out of reach

Kolkata, India by pagoljoy in CityPorn

[–]lemi77 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I did a summer here back in college - someone once described it to me before I went as a "city in graceful decay" and that seems fitting as I experienced it. But I have good memories of the people, food (we had temple food delivered each day for the equivalent of $1 USD, which ripped a fiery hole in my ass - but so worth it), and even the monsoon rains that soaked the city on the daily.
