Irony is obviously lost on this crowd :finger: Market Erection and Market Ejaculation.. I like it! :D I wonder what the interpretation of the Market Whore's Boobies will be.. Perhaps wait for confirmation? ;)

Some thoughts on why its hard to get all things "right": Many business functions and nobody with a complete understanding of all of them. The people creating the software are rarely the same people having to maintain, or God forbid, further develop the software. Ie. instead of actively...

Speaking of projects, as they are defined and implemented, often tend to become a root cause for problems, not a continuous solution. This is because, projects by definition, are time-bound, resource-limited and goal-limiting processes. So how can projects address long-term value appreciation...

This very appropriately popped up on the side: For my point, I'll assume we all have something to learn, both from more experienced software devs, but also from our own experience with programming, an experential and even subjective kind of learning that's not possible to truly master from...

It's easier to say what Go is not particularly made for, like native interactivity, anything requiring GUI/widgets and huge, mature frameworks. I can take a wild guess at this list though: IO/text processing / command-line tools / automation, heavy computations, concurrency, micro services /...

As for me, I'm a Go newbie and naturally am very excited about the language. I've really been productive in the language from day 0 ;), just as I've been in Ruby, and have gained alot of insight from Golang videos and resources on the net. Having said that, please take my enthusiasm with a pinch...

Go is not the fastest on the block, but it is a new language that refines many paradigms at once. It can be said to offer best of many worlds: UNIX philosophy, C, C++, garbage collection, concurrency-support, safety, packages, interfaces with no/loose bindings, strict typechecking, multiple...

What an obnoxious cat! Anybody seen a dolphin this cute?? Last, but not least:

Simple solutions to a complex problem. Good luck with that!

I'm curious about ML, but for my current usage it seems too complicated. However, it might be interesting to use in the future, when I'm ready for it. Am more into creating a backtester and seeing how simple rules works on past data. This may sound trivial, but you can also test on data you...

The Big, Fat Turd vs The Grey, Dull Rock Let's say your trading system provides you a long-term expectancy equivalent to a big, fat turd. Does it matter how many times you slice up that turd (minimizing losses)? As long as your rules yields poop, it won't really matter how you choose to slice...

Still not using ML, but for those interested:

Some obscure stock. It's not all about indices.

6 years. 2 first most intense, but just learning trading ABC and voodoo. Probably over 4k hours analyzing and coding. Hate to trade manually, and lost my biggest chunk trying to do it some years ago. Could be I'm better prepared now, but will never do it without proper backtests and...

I dunno about luck, but hope, is like a garland, and when you know how heavy it is, you wear it proudly!

When you need to put down other people and not arguing their arguments, the dialogue is kind of already lost. I think from this last post I start to understand where you're going with this. R may be a language that is quicker to get some results from (feedback), so you might save time. This is...

Some of this is good. Projects, which originally was just teams banding together to create new solutions, have since devolved into certifications, consultancy-hell and stealing focus and means from long-term development. Truth is, most projects tend to become very IT-centric and short-term...

In my opinion, most people are too afraid of making mistakes, of somehow "looking bad". School and work promotes such fears every day: At school, pupils are expected to simply regurgitate what other people discovered through trial-and-error themselves, and to avoid attempting to create...

Thanks for not educating me. Be sure to update Wikipedia about your findings though.

If you read the first post in this thread, you may agree with me he's most likely talking about "trading systems", not necessarily wanting a fully-fledged "application system", or some other sort of system like an "OS". Otherwise, why not just use what's prepackaged and already available for...
