Start a Quantitative Forum

Rank schools or provide feedback on computational/mathematical/data science type degree programs, not many people frequent quantnet.com, and given the traffic to this site it would be a great boost to people seeking resources on these types of programs. I really don't see the downside other than lack of content generation, which I am sure you can find. This also opens the door for a plethora of new products and services.

www.quantstart.com seems to be the new hot spot. I would still find it interesting if people perhaps in other realms of finance were able to see how to apply code to their current roles to save time etc. as well as to quantify more accurately without using a series of dated models built on a shaky premise.

For example, with 2 lines of Python (which is free), you can have an script that scans a 10-k for you for certain key words and or sentences and print them onto a separate output file. In other words, Python can be programmed quite easily to read, and calculate from text based documents. This would only take ~3 minutes for the entire document, and given that most people tend to look at these types of documents in the exact same way every time, it seems illogical not to.
