It's been awhile
-
I must apologize for my absence but I recently started a new job at a new company. No more boring government work for me anymore. Now I get to work with quantitative developers in investments. I swear that they are trying to make my head explode with all the new jargon. It's been a challenging first few weeks but I am getting the hang of it.

We forgive you and wish you the best at your new job :-\ To quote Nana Mouskouri:
Quote:
Time to say Let's forgive and forget Time melts away All the hurt and regret For we live and learn To forgive and forget

I spent mostly my career in government (Federal research), I'm not sure I would classify it as boring. Sure the deadlines are not as stringent, but some of the capability that I had to come up with are challenging compare to the private sector. Most of my development in private sector are implement known technologies. In research my development involve more theoretical and computational, much more challenging in my view. :^)

I was in pretty much the same industry for my first few decades and then when I started my current job in a completely different industry I ran into a mountain of new terminology that is unique to this one. I have been here two and a half years and I still run across terms that are new to me.
"They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers! Can I get an amen?"

Wait till they get you to build VAR engines, forecasting using things like the K formula and other arcane financial stuff. Then they will want you to change tracks and become a data scientist because you have been working with their systems for a while. Ah the heady world of financial acronyms, make a point of asking for an explanation of every acronym you do not know the meaning of and remember the same acronym can mean different things based on the context. You may never get invited to another meeting :laugh:

With greater challenge comes greater rewards and often the greatest is satisfaction through accomplishment; commercial development has reduced to a level equivalent to cut & paste AGAIN so understand your points and pro-actively agree. R&D is still the venerable black hole it's always been; it draws the dollars and the talent into an inescapable orbit maintained exclusively upon creative thought fueled by the process with no beginning and no end --cyclic, self-serving, inspiration.
I was unaware of that...
