this looks neat, what's the data source and latency?

What I pressume is the text for "Gloomberg" in the Hero header looks very fucked up https://imgur.com/a/ssiKckF Hopefully it's not intentional

Yeah... people aren't paying Bloomberg $31,980 per year for a TUI. They're paying for the data source... and I don't think you have Bloomberg's connections.

When I see new software now, my first thought is an LLM wrote it and it makes me not want to use it. I also assume there are bugs and it’s not particularly feature-rich.

An aside - do tools like this (or what it's modeling, the Bloomberg Terminal) really offer that much benefit to finance folks?

Interesting project, the view looks like gpui based interface, but source code say that it is web based interface written on typescript

Useful on its own merits. Everybody who's distracted by the name and can't get past it, there's a thread developing here somewhere, where they're comparing it to Bloomberg.

This post / OP really needs to say if it's AI SLOP or not and to what extent. This looks like AI slop.

I really wish people would mention their stack when they have these curl install scripts. I'd rather use a real package manager, but I'm not totally against installing a compiled binary this way. I am, 100%, not going to install some Java/Type-script nightmare like this though. How is it resolving the dependencies? Is it installing some version of node, bun... on my machine? How's that working with other versions I have installed? Related: please don't write command line tools in non-compiled languages! Don't make the runtime your user's problem.

I don't think the finance field needs a better bloomberg, I think the whole interface and everything needs to be rethought. Part of the moat is the data, and data access. But I think we need to completely reimagine the terminal interface and interactions with the introduction of AI. The finance industry probably will be slow to adapt, but I genuinely think someone could completely disrupt 99% of the wall street businesses with an original idea.

Bloomberg's moat is the messaging service within it, not it's aggregation of data

total slop, who cares?

There's many competitors these days, one that Shkreli always seems to use in his streams is https://godelterminal.com (Not open source though).

Next week, it's my turn to create an UI for financial modeling prep API

Is there a way to run this inside a container? Like Podman?

This is hilarious - 10/10

As someone whose trading is mostly based on vibes via Reuters, X, and the Apple Stocks app, this is a fun dip in the deep end. The tiling UI is quite sensible once you get the hang of it. The one thing I can't figure out is how to set a pane to change its ticker symbol based on the selected one in another pane. The default research panes do this, but I can't figure out how to set a new one to do it.

I'm a regular Joe, but finance screens seem like pure wank to me. If you work a desk in NYC, maybe it's a different story, and even then probably not, but if you're some bum nobody from LA with a little bit of money to throw around, there's absolutely nothing these things, or 6 simultaneous screens and an RGB PC case are going to tell you that give you some sort of long-term edge. Horoscopes for young impressionable men, along with Bitcoin and all sorts of crap, was the most articulate way I've heard it. As if technical analysis was worth more insight than pissing straight up looking for rain. Sure, it's wet.
