2/20 - Rough seas

  • Investment returns that were supposed to carry me through the past two weeks are almost down to zero
  • Spent way more time than I wanted moving to Typescript, hopefully it’s positive ROI
  • Back at the helm

3/31 - One phase completed

  • A first iteration of the system I wanted to build is done, and performing very solidly, from a devoos POV
  • Simple, very effective CI
  • TypeScript in retrospect was a great choice, allowed significant refactoring without any issue
  • Also very happy about system architecture (“functional core, procedural shell”) with extensive use of dependency injection and “outbound interfaces”. Makes testing the whole system really straightforward
  • while the system has performed admirably, the strategies defined so far are doing very poorly in the current sideway market, so will need to rethink those
