Most of my friends at FAANG all do their work on servers remotely. Remote edit, remote build. The builds happen in giant networked cloud builders, 100s to 1000s per build. Giving them a faster local machine would do almost nothing because they don't do anything local.

...and this is a great setup.

On the laptop you need: - low weight so you can easily take it with you to work elsewhere - excellent screen/GPU - multiple large connected screens - plenty of memory - great keyboard/pointer device

Also: great chair

Frankly, what would be really great is a Mac Vision Pro fully customised as a workstation.

We will be backtesting and deploying an algorithmic trading strategy in a live environment. We'll see how it performs and discuss the steps one can take to improve its performance.

Due to the limited duration of the event, the strategy showcased will use basic ideas in mathematics and technical analysis. We'll be using the Python libraries scipy and talib.

This workshop will be the first part of a larger series, and should appeal to anyone who has an interest in developing automated trading strategies. It would be helpful if you have programming experience, otherwise some aspects of the workshop will be harder to follow.

Not trying to break your party, but GrayLog2 solves all those problems. Most businesses/startups do not need well marketed DataDog or Logtail.

Free, fast, versatile, adaptable to almost every case

http://graylog2.org/ takes me to graylog.org whose pricing is not free and not cheap.

Your company?

Anyway - not a "competitor" to the genuinely free and open-source Swatchdog.

Why use Slack? Slack has rate limits and one will not get the notifications when something real goes down as there will be 100s of messages overloading Slack API.

Slack is convenient just because we use it for some other purposes.

Someone else pointed out that Telegram is also a good idea - that's very easy to do. I've set up Telegram alerts for other purposes.
