What was your win this week?

๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ‘‹

Looking back on your week -- what was something you're proud of?

All wins count -- big or small ๐ŸŽ‰

Examples of 'wins' include:

  • Getting a promotion!
  • Starting a new project
  • Fixing a tricky bug
  • Finally organizing "that" junk drawer ๐Ÿงน

A woman indiscriminately pushes all of the contents from a countertop into a trash bin.

Happy Friday!

Waking up this morning to see my latest post - about online discourse - had gained so much traction. Really starting to feel at home here at DEV, with lovely interactions continuing week after week! Proud to be a Trusted Member of this truly wonderful community.

As far as my own journey is concerned, just about to undertake the first certification project at freeCodeCamp, which I will be writing about later I'm sure. Again, thanks to the help of the community here at DEV, I feel things are really starting to "stick".

No wins, only losses. I don't remember what happened yesterday; I'm completely burned out on these computers. Rest only drains my brain, and the computer burns out every last bit of my memory. In short, I don't know what to do.

That sounds pretty heavy, Ember - Iโ€™m sorry youโ€™re going through that. Burnout can make even rest feel useless, and thatโ€™s such a frustrating place to be. Youโ€™re definitely not alone in feeling this way, even if it feels isolating right now. I hope youโ€™re able to find a little breathing room soon, and remember that even small steps - like taking a pause or just showing up today - are wins in themselves.

Started making a cli markdown editor written in rust. Use basic vim motions and perform a minimal syntax highlight already. Compiled under 2s.
So I think that is a good start. Whole stuff already vibe coded.

Adding on to @richardpascoe post, decided to open up to my thoughts in the comments about the reason of joining Dev.to because of the reflection I have took. Received a lot of heartwarming comments.

Additionally, made my first Monthly report on this platform!

You've become a true asset to the community in a very short space of time, Francis. Neither of us may have the writing "chops" of more established - and frankly, incredible - writers here but I think you'll agree we've both been made to feel so very welcome. Thanks, everyone!
