tbf db isn't really paper with their liquidity events
but yeah if ur tryna tcmaxx prob optiver
unless db goes crazy w IPO
@stray vigil team? tc for each?
did u decide ur going to db? im still deciding can i dm
wait how do u know me
and i also see u on every db vs * post lol...
Depends on the team
but from an amortized standpoint optiver for sure
they do cut though after y1
- culture def worse
also this isn’t HFT bc he’s not d1
there’s a few new teams that r cool too, but yes I agree with you he would
I thought about it, I don’t think quality of work matters if ur in trading bc u can just larp
imo it only matters for the lower of the options in terms of name value
hmm yeah
Okay okay, more so I meant if you worked on research technology you could say low latency
but I take back my opinion here, I resonate more w u here
He could keep recruiting though
Maybe land something better than optiver?
Yes
but also my situation is different
my team has a cofounder
so imo high visibility has merit
but im still recruiting for some reason
so maybe I’ll change my mind idk
I got that too
But its swe
didn’t rlly pay much mind
Nah
Oai Ng seems low octane
I’d only go to ai for research engineer
not awe
Swe
I wouldn’t know this though
I also value certainty
that’s just me
It would just be a step up in terms of name value
Also that’s just in todays climate
@craggy ermine I have a thread here too
yeah but I lowkey got mind controled during my calls I had w the team
whatever they said to me worked
if u can get oai at 500b valuation surely its oai no?
since theyre trying to raise 800b
unless you’d join after that
Don’t optimize for short run
is that rlly short run tho
name is better and ur next 4 years grant would be +60% value after they raise
yea they're already 2x snowflakes valuation, maybe im just a non-believer but i don't see all that much upside left
This is a reasonable assumption
