I don't know, I don't think I'll ever feel hyper competent, the way I think of some of these people you come across.

I certainly know a lot more than 20 years ago. But I always feel like there's more and more layers. Just browsing this site I find something every few days to add to my reading list.

In a way that's good, not feeling like I've hit some experience ceiling.

I mean, there’s always a next level, but I’ve seen your comments over the years and IIRC you’re like an extreme low-latency prop shop pro with serious quant chops too?

There’s more elite stuff (RenTech, CERN, the Equation Group?), but that’s pretty elite man.

If that’s not hyper-competent I shudder to think what is.

Well no matter how extreme, it always seems like other people are smarter. For me personally I don't like playing where it's all about latency either.

Interesting! I did some low latency stuff (mikes not ns, this wasn’t HFT) and I loved it. Trade you jobs! :)
