This is really trying my patience. You made a clearly incorrect claim without mentioning specific dates and challenged me to disprove it. When I did disprove the claim, you shifted the goalposts with this backpedaling remark about how only specific dates are missing. You continue to make these claims and put the burden of proof on everyone else because you can't be bothered to defend them when you're challenged.

I'm not searching for a needle in a haystack for you. Make a falsifiable claim, and make the entire claim, with the specific dates you're talking about, or stop this astroturfing against Quantopian and QuantConnect that you're doing.



My goal is to show people how start to think for themselves and hopefully create lifestyle business around trading or invest for themselves instead of using "buy and hope strategy" and how to do it without losing a single penny while learning and to show them the barrier for entry is pretty low... But you are right, why bother when every time I gave an idea, the day traders with the thousands of dollars data feeds are all over my posts... no good deed goes unpunished here at HN I guess :-(


Shitting on other people products with vague and inaccurate criticisms isn't a good deed, it's just bad form. People don't need you to "show them how to think for themselves." The other guy is right, either make a sound and specific criticism or don't say anything. You did exactly what he said, you made a bad argument which he refuted, then you moved the goal post so as not to appear wrong, while still leaving out the necessary detail to disprove your new vague claim, rather than admitting your mistake and making a better argument that included specifics about what is missing.
