Having worked with David, this is the wrong take — finance was a way for him to fund building a supercomputer (which kind of got dashed by Intel being successful in the 80s when he was on Columbia’s CS faculty) It categorically was not his lovehttps://twitter.com/macrocephalopod/status/1398063640893394944 …

Also respect for Druck for just doing what he loves forever even though he could have retired decades ago. Lesser beings like David Shaw or Soros bowed out to work on “medical research” or “societal reform” whereas Druck just kept on punting futures, a true hero.
