lol, thanks for the reply. Yes, I was thinking of looking at it, but your comment dissuaded me. Out of curiosity, did you try running ECU code through an LLM and asking questions of it, and, if so, how did that work out?
Where does this nanosecond number come from for HFT? 1 ns is the time light takes to travel 30 cm in a vacuum. Are these firms only trading with firms that are a few meters away? How about round trip times? I believe only 10s of microseconds are significant, not nanoseconds.
How does Jane St. use FPGAs to make money trading? My impression was that unless the application demands real speed (i.e., microseconds), write it as software that run in a general purpose processor, not in an FPGA. x86s always get the latest semiconductor processes, while FPGAs always lag.
