Sounds interesting, and written in Go
In The Art of War, Sun Tzu explains that if you want to conqueer an ennemy that is stronger than you, you must split its force and attack a segment of the force at a time until your ennemy lose the war in your favor. That way, your victory is assured while keeping a maximum of your resources, making you stronger for the next war...
Oh boy...
Critical support for the petit bourgeois war on financial stability.
I love the type of guy that just applies The Art of War or the Book of Five Rings or whatever else to anything and everything in the world that has been invented in the hundreds of years since they were written as if they are dispensing great wisdom and not just being orientalists.
Like the Book of Five Rings literally gives people standing lessons and that's one of the most applicable parts of it to this day, yet I've met people who use insignificant quotes from it to class up their managerial BS, when you can get the message across without shoehorning in arcane Asian texts nearly no one you are addressing has ever read.
Every approachable scape of our lives is a battlefield, especially in this late modern world of ours.
For that reason, we need to create our own cryptocurrency.

I'm probably conflating the Bloombutt terminal with something else, but isn't 90% of the point of these trading machines to have them physically as close to the trading floor as possible to get minimum latency for your robot market disruption? So making it open source doesn't help the little guy unless he can find someone willing to rent him server space in a specific geographical area.
A Bloomberg terminal is just a PC that shows a bunch of stonks on a screen. This shit in the movies.
It's famous for being absurdly arcane, navigable only by keyboard shortcuts only found in the paper manual. Also it costs $2000 a month, and if you stop paying they used to send a guy to physically remove it from your premises. I think it's just a piece of Windows software now, though.
It seems like it's mostly a status/cultural thing, where you're not a "real" stock trader unless you've memorized all 5000 keyboard shortcuts.
this is true for making day trades but bloomberg terminals are used for more than that (I'm not even sure that bloomberg terminals are used for making trades, most of what I read about it makes it sound more like facebook for finance ghouls).
