Intention

The reason for building this email service originally came from Dr. Angela Yu’s , which basically started my whole journey into the world of software and programming. I think on day 35 of that course we started developing this flight service. The idea behind it was that you have a Google Sheet as a database replacement (back then we hadn’t talked about/learned how to interact with databases programmatically) and you get the countries listed in the file and you search for the best flights to those places and save the price back.

Intention

My colleagues and I have been saving interesting websites, documents and general learning resources in a Discord chat for months. It’s easy to add the links or files there, but finding a particular resource was cumbersome. So I quickly set up a minimal version with a simple Flask server and have been using it daily ever since. I really like the concept and my first implementation, so I’m thinking about scaling it from a , adding self-hosting capability with Docker, support files and much more functionality.

Before I switched my blog to Hugo I had been using the Pro template myself. You can find more detailed information about usage on Github, and version

Intention

I started this project during the 100 Days of Code challenge. It was a long-term project spanning several days, implementing various features over time. While the design itself is not my own, I was drawn to the idea of having a self-hosted space where I could write about my ideas and thoughts. I continued developing it over time, adapting it to my needs. Initially, it used JSON storage via for blog posts, which is still being used in the Lite version. Later, I enhanced the Pro version by adding a PostgreSQL database for blog posts to enable basic CRUD operations, along with features like tags, user management, and comments. I maintained my own instance of the Pro version running alongside the Lite and Pro templates for a while. Recently, I migrated the blog to Hugo and have since discontinued development and usage of this project.

Why I Only Read Books by Dead Authors

Tue, 24 Feb 2026 11:57:12 +0100

I have been reading my whole life. I was a very eager reader all through my childhood, reading fantasy series from The Magic Tree House to Harry Potter, and comics like Donald Duck, The Adventures of Tintin, and Asterix. Growing older, I got more interested in action and sci‑fi – Alex Rider, Blackout, and The Swarm – as well as history with All Quiet on the Western Front, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind, and War and Peace.

Building a Betting Strategy (2)

Mon, 09 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000

It’s been a while and the teams are already deep into the Bundesliga season. Nevertheless, I don’t want to deprive you of my findings of simulating the strategy. In the , we looked at 14 seasons of Bundesliga data to analyze patterns in match results, goal times and odds trends.

Our Strategy

The strategy I will be backtesting today will be betting on over 0.5 goals in the 30th minute if until then no goal has been scored. At the time of writing the odds with these conditions average at around 1.2. The odds are crucial to the profitability of this strategy, so keep that in mind. I will walk you through my analysis and thoughts when writing the code for it. You can .

Analyzing Crypto Bullruns

Tue, 13 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0000

This blog post deals with trading the crypto bullruns in the most optimal way to secure profits using the CBB Index. This strategy would have easily outperformed holding bitcoin, as we would have sold at each cycle top and reinvested everything in the bear market. I will use this plan for altcoins as well, as they are highly correlated with bitcoin, making it difficult to predict the exact top for each coin. This approach may limit maximum profits, but it helps to secure them.

Building a Betting Strategy (1)

Wed, 26 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000

The European Football Championship is in full swing and, fittingly, I had the idea to develop a betting strategy for the upcoming Bundesliga season. Let´s analyze some historical data and develop a thesis. We will be using data from from 2009/10 to 2023/24 and explore statistics like the distribution of match outcomes, results by winning team, and scoring times.

In this post, the data is processed and visualized using Python, Plotly and Matplotlib. Our aim is to uncover trends and patterns that will be useful for a follow-up post on value betting strategies, focusing specifically on bets on more than 0.5 goals.

Backtesting a Crypto Trading Signals Group

Fri, 21 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000

If you’re into finance-related content on YouTube, you’ve probably seen all these ads where someone is making 20k a month with their crypto signals and that you should definitely join their Telegram group too. Although 99.9% of these groups are definitely scams and don’t work at all, I wanted to review how a select group has performed in the past. Note that this is not a public group, but a paid group that I will be backtesting. I got access to this group through my work colleague whose company has access to this group.
