This web site has been long-time coming. It took over a month to build using libraries I developed over the last year or so. I will use it as my playground for testing new models and applications as well as new languages and visualization tool-kits. Currently the site runs on the Amazon cloud using several opensource technologies including Django, Apache HTTP server, Nginx, PostgreSQL. I will write a proper Colophon very soon.
If you are interested, the source code powering the site is available at GitHub.
I’m Luca Sbardella, and this is my personal weblog. I write about quantitative finance, data analysis, coding, web-applications, trading and other things I like.
Yes coding, I do a lot of it using Python, C++ with Boost, R, Javascript with JQuery and recently Erlang.
