Building AI Trading Systems
Two years ago I wrote a post about applying Reinforcement Learning to financial markets. A few people asked me what became of it. This post covers some high-level things I’ve learned. It’s more of a rant than an organized post. Over the past few years I’ve built four and a half trading systems. The first one failed to be profitable. The second one I never finished because I realized early on that
By Francesco Bertolaccini You’ve reached computer programming nirvana. Your journey has led you down many paths, including believing that God wrote the universe in LISP, but now the truth is clear in your mind: every problem can be solved by writing one more compiler. It’s true. Even our soon-to-be artificially intelligent overlords are nothing but compilers, just as the legends foretold. That sma

What I Worked On
February 2021 Before college the two main things I worked on, outside of school, were writing and programming. I didn't write essays. I wrote what beginning writers were supposed to write then, and probably still are: short stories. My stories were awful. They had hardly any plot, just characters with strong feelings, which I imagined made them deep. The first programs I tried writing were on the
How to analyse 100s of GBs of data on your laptop with Python
Many organizations are trying to gather and utilise as much data as possible to improve on how they run their business, increase revenue, or how they impact the world around them. Therefore it is becoming increasingly common for data scientists to face 50GB or even 500GB sized datasets. Now, these kind of datasets are a bit… uncomfortable to use. They are small enough to fit into the hard-drive of
How to pick more beautiful colors for your data visualizations - Datawrapper Blog
They’re different. The red that Nadieh uses ⬤ is different from your typical red ⬤. The green ⬤ is… can you even call it a green ⬤? So before we impose rules that limit us, let me freak you out a bit: There are thousands of colors you can use. There is yellow-ish red ⬤ and blue-ish red ⬤ and everything in between. There is gray ⬤, but there is also cold gray ⬤ and there is warm gray ⬤. And then th

There is an area of Python that many developers have problems with. This is an area that has seen many different solutions pop up over the years, with many different opinions, wars, and attempts to solve it. Many have complained about the packaging ecosystem and tools making their lives harder. Many beginners are confused about virtual environments. But does it have to be this way? Are the current
Using libsodium in a web browser has been possible since 2013, thanks to the excellent Emscripten project. Since then, WebAssembly was introduced. A more efficient way to run code not originally written in JavaScript in a web browser. And libsodium added first-class support for WebAssembly in 2017. On web browsers supporting it, and in allowed contexts allowing it, that gave a nice speed boost. Li
We all know that parsing is an important part of designing and implementing programming languages, but it’s the equivalent of Brussels sprouts: good for the diet, but a taste that only a select few enjoy. Unfortunately, I’ve come to realise that our general distaste for parsing is problematic. While many of us think that we’ve absorbed the advances of the 1960s into our collective understanding, I
How Does BlueSky Work?
Feb 24 2024 One of the reasons I am enthusiastic about BlueSky is because of the way that it works. So in this post, I am going to lay out some of the design and the principles behind this design, as I understand them. I am not on the BlueSky team, so these are my takes only. Let’s begin. Why does BlueSky exist? Here’s what the BlueSky Website says right now: Social media is too important to be co
If you have visited this site pre February 2022 you may have noticed some slight UI tweaks here and there. The reality is I have completely rewritten the site, moving away from the well-loved Next.js to Remix. I’m not going to go into tonnes of detail here but I thought it made sense to cover some of the reason why I made the move and some of the new technologies I am using. Why the rewrite First

Most loved programming language Rust sparks privacy concerns
Rust developers have repeatedly raised concerned about an unaddressed privacy issue over the last few years. Rust has rapidly gained momentum among developers, for its focus on performance, safety, safe concurrency, and for having a similar syntax to C++. StackOverflow's 2020 developer survey ranked Rust first among the "most loved programming languages." However, for the longest time developers h
May 4, 2022 A few months ago, I quit my job at Google after 10 years to join a 40 person startup (Replit). At the time, I had a hard time expressing why I needed to make the change, even though I knew with certainty. Writing this helped me sort it out. I left because I needed to fix my work-life balance. I joined Google in early 2011. Larry Page was beginning his second stint as CEO. Everybody was
Here’s how to set up location-based alerts on your iPhone using the Reminders app. There’s nothing more convenient than receiving a reminder when you leave from or arrive at a location. You can set alerts to purchase items at the grocery store, run an errand when you leave the office, or tackle a chore when you get home. If you use Apple’s Reminders app on your iPhone, setting up location-based al
Everyone has heard about the so-called “types of learning styles” auditory, visual, kinesthetic, and so on. And almost everything has been said about it. But what if there is a different categorization of learning? Maybe one that gives more inside? Well, I think there is. This time we split the act of learning just into two categories. The first one, I’ll call it "preliminary learning", this is th
Image from UnSplash I’ve led infrastructure at a startup for the past 4 years that has had to scale quickly.

A recent tweet by a friend of mine noted how the public interest in the Scala programming language seems to have plateaued or waned, which matches my feeling of the latest trends and zeitgeist.

How to Do Great Work
July 2023 If you collected lists of techniques for doing great work in a lot of different fields, what would the intersection look like? I decided to find out by making it. Partly my goal was to create a guide that could be used by someone working in any field. But I was also curious about the shape of the intersection. And one thing this exercise shows is that it does have a definite shape; it's
I recently moved a significant codebase from Create-React-App (CRA for short) to Next and thought I would share my experience, because believe me or not, it was quite a journey (and not necessarily a pleasant one). There are plenty reasons why you might want to move to Next from a CRA app. It provides server-side rendering (SSR), and even incremental static regeneration (ISR) when hosted on Vercel
Which is better, Rust or Go? Which language should you choose for your next project, and why? How do the two compare in areas like performance, simplicity, safety, features, scale, and concurrency? What do they have in common, and where do they fundamentally differ? Let’s find out, in this friendly and even-handed comparison of Rust and Golang. As it happens, I teach (and write about) both Go and

This is an exceptionally long post detailing pretty much everything I learned at an event shortly before Christmas at Meta’s offices in San Francisco.

I recently saw a post on Twitter showing the upcoming Go iterator design for Go 1.23 (August 2024). From what I can gather, many people seem to dislike the design. I wanted to give m

Pointers Are Complicated II, or: We need better language specs Some time ago, I wrote a blog post about how there’s more to a pointer than meets the eye. One key point I was trying to make is that just because two pointers point to the same address, does not mean they are equal in the sense that they can be used interchangeably. This “extra information” that distinguishes different pointers to the
