About

My name is Dario and I am a Software Engineer from Germany. Mostly programming in Elixir & Rust. Have to say Elixir is fun but really really prefer working in languages with a strong typesystem and not having null values.

I am curious about traditional financial systems and the following topics/questions should give you an idea what I am interested in/what I do not know (which is a lot!):

I would love to work at an Exchange and/or a market maker to hopefully answer a lot of question I have.

I always say programming is like Lego just for adults which is probably why I love programming so much as I was playing 24/7 Lego with my little brother as a kid.

Out side of work I like to run, listen to music, movies, read books (sometimes, I got lazy) and eat all the food all cultures in this world have to offer.

Some questions & answers to maybe paint the black & white picture you have of me with some colours:

Question: What do you like to do to relax?

Answer: Pop a bottle of (red) wine & read a book, workout at home (without weights, I don’t like gyms, I prefer homeworks. Currently training on doing 100 pushups at once), go running, read about menswear, and look up restaurants. I like to eat.

Question: What’s an essential part of your daily routine?

Answer: Skincreme, skin gets dry fast. Also shaving and putting a face mask on must be one of the top 3 feelings in the world.

Question: Do you believe in having a five-year plan?

Answer: No, live is too unpredictable. Forcing myself into some sort of fixed five year plan kinda also takes a bit of the joy out of life. I like surprises.

Question: Do you sing in the shower?

Answer: Yes.

Follow up: Are you good at singing?

Answer: No

Question: If you could go on a shopping spree anywhere, where would it be?

Answer: Italy

Question: If you could change anything about yourself, would you? If so, what and why?

Answer: Have more self confidence

Question: What’s one thing you can’t live without, and why?

Answer: My glasses. I am blind without them. Whoever invented glasses, I owe you my life

There is not a lot of things I am good at but I am pretty decent at programming & explaining programming. So if you ever need help - I heard nowadays even medicine/business students are taking data science courses and learn programming in R/Python - my mailbox is always open.

The basics of programming are really not that complicated. You only need to speak english. The entry is just a bit hard.
