Working on week of 2024-03-18

Mar 23, 2024

Here's what I've been working on lately:

Maximum, freaking sub arrays

It's been tough to balance wanting to truly learn every concept and to keep making forward progress in the learning materials. But then again, isn't the point of this to learn and not to just check boxes? I've given myself permission to stall on concepts and fully ingrain them. Embrace the suck and battle through some things that I don't master whatsoever. The suffering of getting to the solution is where the learning happens. Until now, I've been learning the minimum amount to be minimally effective and this is about gaining understanding.

What's Next

  • I really want to find an excuse to play around with DuckDb and TigerBeetle. I have something in mind, which is to re-write my day-trading algo to use one or more of these since I could benefit from both the bank-like features that I believe TigerBeetle will offer along with the quick parquet analysis I could do with DuckDb for backtesting purposes.
