☆ Fear and loathing on Wall Street: Inside the paranoid, hyper-competitive onslaught to prevent quant traders from defecting to rivals

Current and former employees at prominent quant trading operations spoke to Insider anonymously for this story, citing fear of legal reprisals. "At the NSA, the penalty for leaking is twenty-five years in prison," Simons liked to tell employees, according to Gregory Zuckerman's book "The Man Who Solved the Market." In the early 2000s, quant noncompetes were narrower and shorter — six to nine months was industry standard, quant recruiters who had to navigate these obstacles told Insider. But it has aggressively pursued employees it believes have crossed the firm, according to court filings and media reports. Absent such changes, quant noncompetes will likely continue to proliferate with little resistance from employees.

New autism numbers released Thursday suggest more U.S. children are being diagnosed with the developmental condition and at younger ages. In an analysis of 2018 data from nearly a dozen states, researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that among 8-year-olds, 1 in 44 had been diagnosed with autism. As such, she said it may be closer to reflecting the true state of autism in U.S. children than earlier estimates. Autism rates varied widely — from 1 in 26 in California, where services are plentiful, to 1 in 60 in Missouri. Bakian said that likely reflects more coverage for autism services by Medicaid and private health insurers.

The CW"Gossip Girl" did not need a Max reboot 2021 — and apparently, the studio agreed because it got canceled after just two seasons in 2023. The questionable decision to make Dan "Lonely Boy" Humphrey the titular gossip aficionado made us question why there needed to be another Gossip Girl and a group of unlikable Upper East Siders — and I say this as someone who loved the original.
