Make programming “playgrounds” where model parameters can be tweaked.

That’s because humans only serve in a kind of supervisory role, setting the trading parameters and then letting the algorithms do the buying and selling at computer speeds.

What emerges, then, is a story without history, within simplified parameters, meant to convey an embattled neighborhood without mentioning certain neighbors, free of any inconvenient perspectives.
