Thank you! Glad you liked it
jrdi··on How I Made $350k in Machine Learning Tournaments
I continue participating in Numerai, I'm not sure about Quantopian, I think they removed their tournament. Can't talk about other but participating in Numerai is still profitable, they removed bonuses but having a relatively good model still pays.

I'm using common data science tools, python, pytorch, and sklearn.

When I talk about small bets I'm talking on trying to take small risks to generate other income sources such as creating small products, or building stuff that can be easily sold.

Sincerely, that was quite surprising for me, especially while participating in Quantopian. I've no idea of what I was doing and I received all that attention... Appreciate your comment!

I'm sorry but I don't understand your question, my approach where? Do you mean my approach in Numerai tournament?
jrdi··on How I Made $350k in Machine Learning Tournaments
I appreciate the feedback!

In general I agree with what you mention. I'm explaining my personal path, I don't want to give too much details but I'll be happy to answer any question you have.

I attribute part of my earnings to luck because it's what really happened, how do you call withdrawing some BTC before a crash that nobody was expecting?

Maybe in some countries is illegal to hire someone without making a job position public, I don't know but there are plenty of company websites where you can make an open submission. If they end hiring you, is that illegal?

Last clarification, I'm not saying that my algorithm will continue earning 2% forever, I'm just saying that it will provide a good income without requiring much effort. I will try to review these last paragraphs to make the point more clear.

Again, thank you for offering your thoughts, I will be happy to provide more details while taking into account your feedback!

Hey! Op here. I decided to write up about my non-conventional career path and how I have been making money online during the last few years. I'm not sure it's easy to replicate but I want to share my adventure hoping is interesting for someone else.

I would be happy to ask any question, and provide advise to anyone interested in.

Thanks!

jrdi··on Show HN: The Financial Status Template
Hey! OP here. It's my first Show HN post so wan't quite sure about the title and the format. Hope it's good enough.

The content is simple, a spreadsheet to keep track of your personal finances. Including a general status view, expenses, investments, cryptos, and budgets. Of course the template's data is fake for illustrative purposes.

I have been using and improving the spreadsheet for a year, and would be great to receive some feedback and things to improve. Also, would be great to see if can be useful for other people!

Thanks!

jrdi··on Machine learning and data science advices
Good point, work as a freelance on his current path to pay a MA degree seems a good idea. Can you recommend a MA? Any of them with online options?

I am on similar situation and I live in Europe. I didn't saw a lot of MA in related areas.

I don't see your point. I don't think so that it's an programming language problem. What can he do if he starts to use Python and a web framework using the new language?
