alt Hacker News> Why be a poorly paid postdoc when Jane Street is offering a million USD signup bonus?
One reason is despising that line of work. Quant firms were pummeling my @prestigious.edu inbox throughout my PhD and I fucking hated those parasites. Well, jokes on me if AI shatters my current career.
Btw a former classmate Caroline Ellison who went to Jane Street eventually landed in prison, lol.
Why put @prestigious.edu and name a famous person? Why not just say you went to Stanford? Lots and lots of people have gone to Stanford.
