ohh, I can absolutely feel with you. As a dad of a little angle(1+). and yes, the time goes bye do quick. I want to spend as much time as possible with her.
Sadly, I have a very long way to work. 1.5 hours, two times a day. so that mother in law can take care of the child during the day.
In Subway however I use the time well. Writing my posts, reading articles, reading books. Coding on the way however does not work for me.
I wanted to do an update for my xml parser for more than 2 months. last weekend I finally took the time, to get it done.
I want to migrate my personal website to eleventy, but that will wait for some more time. At least the current page made with hexo 4 years ago still works good.
I also do not worry about personal development. There is enought time for me for reading and doing some experiments. and experiments don't need to end up in company projects.
Today, setting priorities are much more important than before. And I like to give people today the advice:
3 hours a day? Wow! I just moved to reduce my commute from 1,5h/day to 45min. I usually spend the time in my car listening to podcasts. But then corona came and I am working from home since March this year without an exception. I wonder why that doesn’t work for you?
And I can very much relate with your personal site (which is nice BTW). I just updated my personal site to Bootstrap 4 which was a larger effort that I had expected. That’a time I spent after my kids were in bed and my wife wanted to watch some cheesy series on Netflix 😜
I would be allowed to work from home and I tried. but I get to little done. I am in Shanghai China, and the big slow firewall in combination with company VPN, makes working very slow. 5 minutes for each click on jira.
To be honest, I enjoy having the time on subway. on the subway I don't need to concentrate on traffic and can not do much there. I never never finished so many books as today and I get some kind of regularity into my blogposts. (at least publushed on dev, my website will catch up).
When talking about how much more time I like to have for personal projects, I absolutle wanna say this is not a complained. I say, having time occupied with my little girl is great 😊
Interesting! Another thing we have in common, I was living and working in Shanghai in 2007. I loved the people and the food.
Where do you live? I was living in Pudong and I could walk to the office, luckily so no need for a long commute.
But I understand that you enjoy the time that you have on your own. Sometimes, when I need to drive for a while I also enjoy listening to podcasts again.
I live in minhang destrict, near line one, since you where in town 😉 the city has changed a lot. I was 2012 the first time in shamghai, as a student, and the traffic is much less crazy and much more quiet. I am happy that the last virus case is very months back.
My work office is almost on the other side of town in pudong. but,... kind of everythink on this side of the river is called pudong and it has extended very much.
it is very impressive, first I wonder what big roads they build into empty land, now there are lots of appartment towera and such.
What I like most here, is as you say the people. There is a very good attitude and the strong believe and feeling, that things get better.
I remember when I left, they had almost finished that tower with the rectangular whole at the top. And after that I saw they’ve build a couple of even more towers.
I was living in an apartment building in Changyi Lu, somewhere around Taolin Lu. Our office was right in the center of the financial district.
The traffic on pudong side was never really a problem, back in the days but the tunnels were jammed even at 3 am. I was usually taking the bus as there was no Metro or just walking home, grabbing some Sheng Jian Bao on the go :)
