I've been on the job hunt for a few months. This week I accepted an offer for a full time role on a team I am really excited about😉 🎉

My greatest win of the week is starting my journey into this dev world! It is the most excited I've been about a career-changing decision. It is the first time ever that I've written a blog and the first time putting myself out there . . . and it feels good! Thanks so much to the Dev team for allowing me to use your platform to share my progress!

I published my first post on dev.to 🥳

Would love to hear people's feedback!

My talk "Deep dive into Elixir" for ElixirConf was accepted! It's the first time I'll be speaking at a conference. So definitely excited also very nervous! Any speaking tips would be greatly appreciated!

I submitted my first image to the DigitalOcean Marketplace and it got accepted! You can now create Laravel Droplets with 1-Click!

I just got 129 hearts on one single comment! Thanks to this awesome community!! ❤️

Received my first ReactJS and JavaScript badge award from @devteam for my recent blog post
It inspires me to write more blog posts ✍️ and share my knowledge.

I reached 10000 views mark on Dev.to & It's awesome 🤩

I'm so glad to be part of so much supportive and inspiring community 💚

Pumped out 5 posts this week! Here are my two favorites.

My win this week I have shared on Indie hacker for my project building Eleventy Themes. 🎉🎉

I made a simple URL Shortener with NodeJS and ReactJS, I enjoyed building it a lot! Here's the link, by the way: Shmag.

I gave constructive criticism of the latest episode of a podcast I listen to (it was on a subject I've focused on pretty intently for the last year+) which, in hindsight, could have been taken much differently (text is dry, especially since my email was a freaking Tolstoy novel).

Instead, one of the hosts emailed me back thanking me, admitted that they were in a rush and winged it without show notes, said I'd be getting a shout-out in the next episode, and asked if I'd like to be a guest doing another episode on the subject!

I was planning to release this flask boilerplate since a very long time and now it is live. Finally, got the motivation to write about it this week 🎉

Feels good to have contributed to opensource community 😉 ❤️

I started to earnestly dive into NES game development (in assembly)! I've been reading, taking notes, and working on recreating the game Pong!

I also reduced my time on Twitter and IG last week, and have been steadily replacing that time with books 📚

In the end I wrote

Ummm....! I published an article about Esolangs . It as something I was working on for some weeks.😄😄
Also, I recently got started with git. I hope to continue with it.

I win my Zend PHP Certification Exam :).

Due to this Corona thing I was not getting enough clients or projects but finally I got a new client and started a new project of an E-commerce website. This is my biggest project in my freelancing career.

I watched the movie Captain Fantastic and it made me disengaged even more with the capitalist ideas of labour. Even the week is an economic construct organized around the idea that in order to have 2 days of rest you need to sell your soul for 5.

I also completed reading Fernando Pessoa’s Book of Disquiet, continued reading from The Magic Mountain by Thomas Mann, and started reading/listening to Watership Down together with my 8 year old.

Oh and I wrote this:

The Illusion of Innovation in Web Development

Had this week off from work. I imagined I’d want to sleep and watch tv and movies but what I really wanted to do was something I couldn’t regularly make time for: online learning!

I started working on FCC’s APIs and Microservices certificate and started a React project I’m excited about.

I demoed something at work about our team using Java Completable Futures and @Async to order health insurance cards for members in a non blocking fashion. I also went over how to test these non blocking calls by using Awaitility.

I merged my first Pull Request that was not by me since long.
Plus it uncovered a few issues,
all thanks to the user that answered my post asking for help. I hope there'll be others!

Also I added locations to my (rudimentary) litterate system.

@[[ Includes ]]
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
  @[[ Print ]]
}

#include <stdio.h&gt

puts("Hello, World!");

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
  puts("Hello, World!");
}

Hello, World!

EDIT: I keep forgetting I can use liquid tags in dev.

I finally got a big feature I've been working on for weeks working in prod!

Finally started a new job, lost my previous due to liquidation. Initially, I was a bit anxious as this is a much environment that startup, but all people were very welcoming. Probably my most significant win this week was to survive the number of meetings I had to attend or organise and even figure out a small problem with Docker.
Next week I have even more meetings so I am chilling this weekend as much as I can.
Good luck to anyone there, it is a tough time but keep your hopes up and keep applying and learning in your spare time. Don't forget to rest regularly and take care of your brain, as well, by taking regular walks.

Started a new habit of reading Atleast one chapter of a book each day! 📖
Really feels sense of accomplishment after completing 📚

I've been wanting to work at Google. In Jan 2020, I tried applying for the fifth time, and after COVID-19 hits, I tot that this is not going to be the year but low and behold!

I started to clean a abandoned skate park for that everyone can skate in there, also I started to get down more very cool skate tricks, I finished a repo with a little BashScript to improve the Termux app, I started a telegram channel in which I share BashScript hints and useful snippets of code, I recycled trash and with that started to make a very cool project using trash and Arduino, and today I bathe early 😉👍 and almost I forget I become this week in lacto vegetarian, I have like 4 days without eat meat
