allegedly read all the academic journals

And this list?

Omygawsh.

and find the top scientists in
the world, and then try to court them to work for D.E. Shaw. Being
offered a job there is like winning a Nobel, allegedly.  I guess that
doesn't necessarily apply to sys admins, since they were advertising
very heavily for them a couple of years ago.
