He is inviting friends to come on and discuss the world of finance, economics, and politics through the lense of the technology that it is shaped by.
Voices in Finance: The Power of Community Forums
It's fascinating to observe the growing trend of community-driven technical discussions in the asset management and investment industry. #fintwit and the r/quant have been great resources and there's a clear opportunity (and demand) for more focused and collaborative conversations. From these communities have emerged professional open source projects like Toraniko from 0xfdf (who recently has gone silent). 0xfdf/Toraniko: A multi-factor equity risk model for quantitative trading.
On the social side of things, some subreddits are moderated by individuals with vested interests, such as data providers or software vendors. You see this a lot with travel agencies where they influence conversation by being mods in travel subreddits. If projects like Hindenberg Research are effective for activist investors, becoming a mod in influential subreddits could be similarly effective.
As we move forward the relationship between the social world and financial markets will only further intertwine. That's part of the reason why we decided to create a podcast in the first place.

These developments are incredibly promising. While we have yet to see a seeded hedge fund...

Cheers for sharing! I need guidance: My Tron Wallet holds some USDT TRX20, and I know the backup phrase: -clean- -party- -soccer- -advance- -audit- -clean- -evil- -finish -tonight- -involve- -whip- -action-. What’s the best way can I handle transferring them to Upbit?
why haven't you started your own fund, will you start in future your own hedge fund?
Appreciate it for publishing this! Hoping for some guidance: My Tron Wallet holds some USDT TRX20, and I possess the SEED: -clean- -party- -soccer- -advance- -audit- -clean- -evil- -finish -tonight- -involve- -whip- -action-. Could you suggest how should I go about sending them to another wallet on Binance?
You’re very stupid😂😂
Appreciate the detailed breakdown! 🧐 I have a quick question: 🤷♂️ I found these words 😅. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). How do I use this? 🤨
This was fascinating, thanks for sharing!
You didn't know who citadel is and you were accepted for analyst. Yeah right bucko
Found this channel hello from UK
love the channel!
Frontend these days is very complex. To keep up with the nature of it is challenging. I agree that the divide is unnecessary but to keep up with everything will necessitate some things aren't as good as you want it to be.
Very interesting. Where can I test your tools?
What we don't understand, we tend to oppose. I can see how Al is helping in the work you are doing. I appreciate Hedgineer broadcasts to help me understand.
The guy is interviewing himself
Good job in adding the closed captions.
Excellent discussion between the Tres Amigos of how collaborative minds are living on the cutting edge of developing, serving, and educating the investment industry. I admire the synergy of your discussion!
Great episode as usually! I have worked for one of the largest hedge funds in Latin america for some years, but they do not have the software and technology mindset/infrastructure when compared to global funds. I have a background in Finance and I am a CFA charterholder, would you have some courses to recommend to build such infrastructure for a fund? Thanks
Better to ask ChatGPT
Yes itpm. They have a UA-cam channel, but they are great guys that worked in the pro era of trading. Long / short PM

Just call it how I see it! You guys seem to be ahead of the field when it comes to automation of dataset evaluation from what I have heard.

Great content!

Great talks, keep them coming!
Good Stuff guys!
Thanks! This was a really fun one because Lucas never learned Excel as an analyst and only knows how to use Python. So when he approaches a problem he only knows code! As a developer, this is the type of analyst you love working with and why it is awesome to ideate with him. Also his story of how he got to Citadel is awesome!
Nice content for sure!
Thanks! Do you work in finance or Aerospace? If not have any questions about it?
