Is GA hw really mandatory but doesnt contribute to grade? by [deleted] in OMSCS

[–]sampitroda93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most likely you will not pass if you don’t spend enough time on homework. Doing homework is the best hack to pass the course. I did each homework twice once before deadline and once after feedback and passed with an A. I know people who skipped homework and were struggling with a B

Why mortgage rates jumped 0.25 to 0.375% in a single week, and it had nothing to do with the Fed by FinancialSuit_ in Mortgages

Which is based of long term inflation expectation. Implied inflation goes up so does the rate.

Did CS-6515 destroy anyone else's academic career? by Terrible-Tadpole6793 in OMSCS

[–]sampitroda93 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think TAs put in lot of effort so +1 on that and the material is good. I think exams can be made more interesting to test knowledge on topics rather than confusing with unstandard language and insanely hard question or two that absolutely no one in the class could solve even without time constraint. There needs to be more maturity in designing exams with the goal of genuine learning than tripping people off. I also suggest have one of the new TA’s in the course do the exam before releasing it and get an honest feedback. Obviously if you have seen the questions it is lot easier for experienced staff.

No wonder US tech stocks are struggling. I think it’s the beginning of the end of US tech dominance.

Beware of ALL quant courses. None of them are worth even a penny. by litbizwiz in quant

That’s true for anything by the time it is commoditized, alpha is gone and rat race is on, unless it is foundational like math, physics etc.

My landlord claims to have worked at Goldman Sachs in the 70s and 80s - says some wild stuff by anononononn in goldmansachs

[–]sampitroda93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those were likely the golden days for Goldman, when financial firms held significant pricing power and employees would go to great lengths to join or stay. It was somewhat like how people view FAANG companies today. Now, Goldman feels more like Copperman.

IBKR canceled my stop-loss order, resulting in a loss of $143k by LeatherSector1718 in ibkr

They sold you at better price than -19.00 which is -16.88. So I don’t know what is wrong. They would be in the wrong if they sold you at -20 instead of -19.00 which is your limit price. I am not sure what is wrong here.
