I'm currently Director of Data Science for the Portland Trail Blazers. Several of my open-source projects are on GitHub.

Zillow

Zillow made the same mistake that every new quant trader makes early on: Mistaking an adversarial environment for a random one.

The real answer isn’t “bad luck”. It’s that, despite what your models say, the market isn’t random thermodynamic noise. The market is an ecosystem — one where everything is trying to kill you all the time.
