Been a busy week with the kids due to summer vacations.
Still, wrote a lot... My new book is approaching 300 pages and I'm at chapter 18 (of probably 22+).
Got a post on r/java which is pretty hostile normally.
Finally passed 1k followers on Medium.

I wrote a series based on the commit histories... never ending series with unexpected moment. Some time I am telling story based on the output of the git diff command.

Or if you have a commit logs in a tree completed with graph?! I will write for you a novel based on that!

This week we managed to release a REST service mesh on top of many open data sets,

We celebrated as it was a great team work while giving us opportunity to learn about Quarkus and many other cool things.

I went through 50,000 emails in my personal account looking for people to cold email for work. I cut down my resume from 8 pages to a much more concise and edible two pages. I received my Nanodegree from Udacity for Go.

I'm building a reporting application using Ionic with angular and a PHP/Mysql backend api. My win was to fix a process where you can upload an image to the report. I had multiple users and reports so had to make sure the images get uploaded to a specific folder tied to that report but have that folder generated dynamically and then have the uploaded image on my server renamed then create the folder then move the file into it. This had to work for an array of files. I eventually got there through what feels like blood magic. God have mercy on my soul

This weekend I was able to put together Apollo telephony integration, Coventry calling, browser clients such as for management, generic sip devices, Babylon automated endpoints, and Partisipate desktop softphones to finally begin development as a cohesive whole.

This is my vision for fully unified facility communication, telephony, and facility automation. The goal is facilities (homes, offices) will have their very own interactive ai driven voice and chatbot. All project sources have finally been gathered on codeberg. All active components are under FOSS licensing and open to public participation.

I finished the draft submission of the remaining chapters in part 1 of my book, Refactoring with C#. I'm now 1/3 of the way through drafting all content. It's going to be a hefty book by the end of it! Probably 500+ pages, but a good resource for the community.

A couple this week.
Getting more used to use git bash more rather than github desktop.
Got used to enums and how to actually use them today (with the help of chat gpt, i needed all the help i could get), now i just need to keep practising them to keep the knowledge.
Actually starting my personal project (which shot off into a couple other java class library projects) after a couple weeks of coding anxiety.
And overall feeling more confident that i can code and even get a job in coding, and if i dont know something i can learn it. Even enums...
