<h2>Work</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Development is slow during peak.
|
|
The whole team is spending so much time making sure that nothing breaks.
|
|
Bug fixes and maintenance.
|
|
It is a different pace than the rest of the year.
|
|
Both more stressful in some ways, and less.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Still keeping my eyes open for other opportunities.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Life</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
We now have less than 6 months till our wedding.
|
|
So many little ends to tie up.
|
|
A fun process but a little overwhelming at times.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Working to find the path that feels right for me career wise.
|
|
Exploring various options and looking for places that align personally with my values.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The team here at GB Toronto has become an external family.
|
|
I am so grateful for the community.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Back to training regularly.
|
|
There is a competition coming up in March that a bunch of us are going to try and make it to.
|
|
Hoping to go for both Gi and No gi.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Learning</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
I am working to learn japanese and portuguese on Duolingo.
|
|
I love the program and it is 100% worth paying for, but the fact that even when paying it keeps asking for ratings, putting widgets on my home screen, or turning on notifications bothers me.
|
|
You already have my money now please don't bother me.
|
|
Finding the lessons really helpful.
|
|
Coupling it with Anki flashcards for memory is working well.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Starting to learn <a href="go.dev">Go</a>.
|
|
A very simple and concise language.
|
|
Both similar in ways to Rust (focus on performance, strong type system), and completely different (still a runtime, much simpler).
|
|
Enjoying it so far, still very early days.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h2>Tinkering</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Wedding website still under construction.
|
|
Adding final touches and new information as it comes up.
|
|
Very pleased to have rolled my own auth for this which was fun.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Shifting my attention back to adding content to my personal website.
|
|
I have been having a bit of an ongoing moral crisis with the state of the tech industry at the moment.
|
|
First I want to get my <a href="/garden/technology">thoughts</a> clarified and down in writing.
|
|
Then I want to see what I can do about it and how I can contribute to a user centric web.
