My wife, Katelyn, and I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary last week in Alaska and flew back home to NC late Monday. We stayed in a variety of places, but the highlight of our trip was 2 nights stay in a "cube" at Borealis Basecamp where we saw the aurora. Here's a few pics from our trip:
Congratulations
My wife and I just had our 10 year as well! This looks like an awesome idea for a trip. Boomarking for our 15 year 🙂
So awesome to hear that you just had your 10-year as well!! Congratulations to you and your wife. 🙌
And I highly recommend Borealis Basecamp. Such a fun trip!
Beautiful view! 😍
And happy anniversary! 🎉
So awesome - happy anniversary! 🎉

What is your min 10 minutes reading challenge? What do you read?
The challenge is easy enough: read at least 10 minutes a day. This has really positively impacted my life: better sleep, less stress, an easy win for each day, the joy of reading.
I read novels of all sorts, but I especially enjoy time travel stories and light science fiction that makes us reflect on our world (1984 and the like). And weird/original books (e. g. house of leaves) ! My discovery of the year : project hail Mary.
I track everything here: derlin.github.io/reading-stats/ (slow loading time, sorry for that)
Well, calling 1984 "light" is strange, but then again you might say lighter than the current reality.
But wow! Your graphs are impressive :)
Your reading is too.
Light opposed to hard science fiction (with aliens, spaceships and crazy technology, very far from our reality). Because content-wise, I agree, there is nothing light to 1984 😂
Thank you!
Started learning CSS. I really want to start on my journey to becoming a front-end developer. I figured what better place to start than the "trifecta languages" (HTML, CSS, JavaScript). I've almost completed my first project! 😀
Purchased some new vinyls for my collection.
Started looking into how to improve my writing skills.
Finished another Python project I was working on
Nicely done!
Hacking CSS in devtools was how things started to click for me about how CSS affected HTML, and where JS fits! Keep it up!
I made 9 videos in 7 days on YouTube. One of which hit 300+ views in a single day, which is huge for me currently.
I also wrote a desktop app front-end for a One Night Ultimate Werewolf simulator I wrote in July as an AI fun project.
It's been a while since I have written a post on this platform. I have finally published my long-pending post about some of the underrated skills of a
a senior software engineer from an engineer's perspective 🎊

I didn't win anything big this week, but learned many things. I recently launched 600+ Free Designer Resource on Product hunt. Got really less upvotes and support from the community, infact my previous product fReddit got 180 upvotes.
Anyway I learned many things. And will hustle hard more for next time.
Next week I have planned to publish dev related article daily.

Finished development of a 3 month project exactly in time, almost in scope and most importantly without overtime or burning out anyone in the team!
The great thing is we didn’t believe we could achieve this three month ago! But now looking forward to my end-of-year vacation
Finished my P2P WebRTC chat demo in JavaScript. It was my second attempt. This time used SimplePeer library instead of Native Browser API.
Finally wrote a blog post after 2.5y of postponing lol
Rock on! Major props for writing that post. I checked it out and it looks super well written and thorough. 🙌
Thanks a lot for the kind words 💪
This week I made a little project with JS, CSS and HTML. It went very well, i'm really happy that I was able to do it :)
Congrats. Is it public? Can we see it? Did you also post about it?
Unfortunately It is not public yet because i'm having some issues with my computer and GitHub but i'm trying to resolve it, and I haven't post anything, I've literally just create this account :D
Then welcome to DEV. Bienvenidos.
Our project was complete and presented. We prepared so hard to prevent any problem. And there was no problem yesterday! Everyone did a great job!
Can officially call myself Full Stack this week. At the moment I'm just loving that I'm loving work again.
Got a new dev job, Failed in my class tests
