Today I want to talk about how to find the…
Weekend build and learn.
Welcome back to my weekend build and learn series, last weekend; due to Halloween, I did not focus too much on the code, which instead I more focused on the candy, totally guilty. But I do have a great time with the kids and families.
For this week, let’s keep building and learning.
Why trading bot?
There are many tutorials about building a trading bot for different markets, such as cryptocurrency, stock exchanges, currency exchanges, etc. However, under the hood, the trading is all around the trading strategy.

2 years ago, I started my weekend code and learned on medium. This journal is keeping moving forward. Enjoy every moment on it.
I don't want to join into comparison tooling, solution, programming language, etc. Reason being:
There is not prefect solution/tooling/programming language, the only prefect one is based on the context and the timestamp.
Based on the belief above, I always encourage my engineering team to find the best fit…

Weekend write and learn.
Last time I wrote the no technical article almost three months ago. And I want to keep the balance between the Tech/Programming article and no tech article proportion.
One of my readers recently asked me a question:
How can you manage your time for learning? Any tips?
Right. Let me think. This is true, and how I manage that? So I start thinking about my daily routine.
My daily work hours are 8 AM to 6 PM, after family time, the coding and learning time is only around 10 PM to 12 PM. How to optimize…
Weekend build and learn
Disclaimer: This is ONLY my weekend research and development topic; the idea behind is to learn more about the Hadoop application/job logs and Rust language. The solution is NOT for production used. Use it at your own risk.
Motivation

Almost two years ago, I benefited some weekend times to start to build the realtime data pipeline in Golang and have written a couple of articles to elaborate on the details. If you are interested in it, please see the link below.
As part of this year, my learning exercise, I start to write different pipelines and applications in Rust, and I’m enjoying this journey so far.
To keep the journey more enjoyable. I decided to rewrite the realtime data pipeline two years ago, which written in Go, now in Rust.
Let the fun start.
