      1. Building an automated trading bot, even if it fails, can be a great story and showcase real-world application skills for a resume.
      2. Scraping tweets, RUclips comments, and other online content to analyse sentiment can be a powerful and advanced project that stands out on a resume.
      3. Building a blockchain-based voting system showcases understanding of large-scale system design and architecture, standing out on a developer resume.
      4. Building an online multiplayer game can be a great project to have on your resume and can showcase various aspects of the job.
      5. Building a face detection system for a Raspberry Pi security system can be a cool and practical computer vision project with real-world applications. Computer vision projects can make you stand out and give you an unfair advantage in the real world.

    I developed a trading bot in 2017 and consistently include it in my resume. I agree with your point; it certainly catches the attention of hiring interviewers. They often ask, "How did it perform? Was it successful?" My response is always candid: the bot functioned as intended, but if it had been truly successful, I wouldn't be seeking employment right now. Interestingly, this experience has been a key factor in my being hired 100% of the time.

Your trading logic is more important as it will cost you money. You can create your same bot with same logic in pretty much any language.

      @@dnm9931 Just do the back of the envelope calculation on how fast the program should theoretically run. Then measure how fast it actually runs with your current implementation through some benchmarks. And in case it makes a considerable impact, think about optimizing it.
      There's no secret sauce to optimization. You need to be able to judge how much work a processor can pull off and then figure out why it's slow and optimize.. Plus you need a good understanding of how a processor works to come up with proper solutions. That's the whole skill.

      Its a waste of time building all that stuff, learning web3, game dev for no reason at all other than your resume is not the best use of time. Game development, security and blockchain stuff are a whole job in themselves lol if you follow that advice you'll forever be in tutorial hell because you'll always feel like you have to know everything. Just focus deeply on your specific area build things that specifically target the core skills and you'll do just fine. Its very competitive out there and sometimes its things you cant really control. Most things you can always learn on demand anyways he also admits he learnt blockchain on the job while getting paid so not sure why he asking people to randomly learn it.
