I was assigned a ticket that initially considered 4-5 complex solutions with lots of potential changes but after discussing with another dev and boss narrowed it down to a one line change that genuinely seems to meet all the needs. Its passed QA.

This was our first week of "cooldown" after our most recent product development cycle.

I learned a lot this week from how folks are reacting to our processes and what needs to change. That was definitely a win.

Published my first and second open-source projects.

  • Reggie-Docs: Making Regular expressions easier to read.
  • Escape-Button: Domestic Violence button to hide what site you're currently on.

I've got two more projects I've been hacking at, but they're not quite ready.

Understanding how some technologies work and when to use them and as I didn't find enough documentation in some cases, documenting everything I learned was my way to share that knowledge with the community. I wrote some blog posts about it here
