At work I made a public release announcement of our internal component library. So far only our team has used it, but it now has a Storybook with some nice documentation that I've been working on. Also team mate was nice to make the Storybook available for everyone so now we can finally link it with each other instead of relying on running it locally.

In personal life I've found what I stand by. I'm kind of in the beginning to understand who I actually am. So far in my life I've tried to adapt to what external pressure appears to expect of me which has blurred the line of who I am. But I don't yet know how my wife will react to this. Worst case scenario it could mean a divorce. In the other hand that is ok as I might've found inner peace that helps me be more confident on myself. Life will tell.

I launched my project 🐡 Fugu after working on it on the side for several months. I love open-source and privacy-friendly software that focuses on simplicity, and Fugu is a product analytics tool that does all that 🎉

✍ Continue to write for my book about Vim:

  • I've figured out half of my table of content
  • I want to include a strong narrative 'cause I'm so tired of boring technical books :D
  • The formatting of the book itself get better and better

So many ideas popped this week, it's insane! And it's a looooot of fun 💕

I got paid to wear a stupid costume and talk on a live stream with a cool colleague about LED powered pumpkins! I can't believe that part of my day job involved such silliness.
