Is Danny famous? Apart from splitting his own tongue?

I mean, he's obviously famous among his friends. :)

Incidentally: I know Andrew well, and actually almost moved to NYC to work with him at Bloomberg. I think he is underselling the role a little bit. His team sits on top of one of the greatest mountains of real time data in the world, and gets paid to invent and execute cool things to do with it. I'm pretty familiar with the environment he's working in, and it is the least stereotypically "BigCo" environment in probably all of finance.

If you're remotely interested in Andrew's problem domain, strongest possible recommend; go talk to him!

The website under that picture read like an April fools joke.

ok.

Just struck me as an odd choice when posting for a seemingly suit and shirt place like Bloomberg.

Haha, Bloomberg is not a suit and shirt place! When I worked there, I wore sandals, shorts, and a t-shirt. Lots of other people (including my manager's manager) did the same. There was also a guy dressed like a heavy metal rocker who was in meetings with guys in suits all the time.

Also, Danny Dulai worked for Bloomberg.

I just choose to interact with the net using my personal address :)

As for attire, everyone wears whatever they want -- probably just like any other company posting here.

I am officially retiring from this conversation :-)

I did not mean to imply any improprietary, just a passing glance at a site, and a middle aged man who should know the by-ways of the net better (me).

Sounds like a fun fire-hose to get to work with - enjoy.

(Actually I would be interested in getting a flavour of the sizes of data sets, time constraints you work under, tools of choice (trading off performance and reliability) - real time massive data is where most of us are heading, would be interesting to hear letters back from Mason and Dixon)
