Cycle 27 (v2 cycle #8), day 7:
I had this crazy idea to immigrate to the Cayman islands. Crazy because AFAIK, unless you are millionaire, they won't let you in...
but beside being a tough objective, I love the idea because they have no income tax. They have 0 Covid measures. Everything is open.
It seems like those benefits comes along with having a lot of money... People with money don't accept those stupid measures and are able to influence the politicians to stay reasonable.
Anyway, I feel like with my project about to breakout, this crazy idea is reachable and this adds an extra motivation to succeed.
I must have used OF for almost 8 months... but unless there is a new program that can assist me in my current endeavor (UMS, BASE or something along those lines), I think that I may stick with OF even longer than 8 months. The reason being that I feel like the current environment is extremely anxiogene. Using OF, helps me to stay cold headed and remain sane in all the surrounding insanity driven by fear.
Concerning my project,
I have been trying to solve a complex issue happening when a trade plan is initiated by my system. I have added some new code to address that issue. It did seem to work but with after few test drive of the new feature, I have discovered a bunch of malfunctions that occurs with certain cornercase scenarios. One of them did even made my system crash during a mini flash crash in the altcoins market yesterday evening.
Am I progressing or regressing? adding new code introduces new bugs. I guess that the answer is that I am progressing as I am testing the limit and testing the system. Every bug fixed makes the system better but the last run feels like a catastrophic failure. To the point where I didn't restart the system until I have fully understand what it did and that I fix those quite severe bugs.
and I feel like, it is harder to focus and concentrate on the tasks related to my project. I feel distracted or maybe I am procrastinating a bit...
Another topic that isn't smooth is the bare-metal server. I have finally committed to a bare-metal server. I did create an order to have one. The provider advertise a fast order provisioning. They say, usually up and running 40 minutes after you have made your order and in the worse scenario you have your server within 24h. Well, the order has been passed well over 48h ago and I still don't have the server installed.
This sucks. OTOH, even faster HW would have mean more damage from the bugs that I have talked about above. So, we could say that this is a bad event for a good outcome...
but what I conclude from those events is that I am in a small period of resistance. Stuff does not happen easily and naturally as they were.
I accept this state and I beleive that it is only temporary and things will start get better in the next few days.
