You could literally just read economics at the LSE, sit Part III at Cambridge and stay on for the PhD in stochastic filtering, get a seat at a Berkeley Square macro pod that runs a bigger gilt book than half the primary dealers, buy the four-bed lateral at Clarges overlooking Green Park, dm the girl whose brother was your mate from the LSE Investment Society and whose father was Chief Treasurer at Yukos, first dates at 5 Hertford Street, shooting weekends at the Highland estate the family bought in ’06, get the LP intro over Sunday roast,

but you will not.

You could literally just do a PhD in stochastic vol at EPFL, get a desk at a Rue du Rhône oil trading boutique that clears more than its country of domicile, buy the duplex in Cologny, dm that girl whose dad is an unlimited partner at Bordier, first dates at the Hôtel des Bergues, weekends at the family chalet in Gstaad, get the LP intro over raclette,

- but you will not.

“update your priors”
tender Verified account @tenderizzation 3d
saying “isomorphic” and “orthogonal” now is almost normie in sf. you need to be using 2010s cuda compiler speak e.g., instead of saying “we need to align,” say “we need to reconverge” instead of saying “ultimately,” say “the postdominator.” this will maximize your insufferability

New to compute markets? We started Introduction to Compute Markets, a series for anyone who wants to understand how GPU capacity is bought, sold, and financed.

Part 1 covers the primary market and the three ways compute gets sold:

1. Reserved: commit for a fixed term, typically for a lower rate
2. On-demand: pay as you go, with no long-term commitment
3. Spot: discounted spare capacity, until the provider needs it back

Next up: what happens when customers become sellers, in the secondary market.
