Some wins :)

  • Learned some more about Gatsby and Gatsby cloud. Looking forward to taking a full course on these services and doing a project using them!

  • My portfolio post got a React badge and lovely feedback from the DEV community. Putting my work "out there" was kind of scary, but everyone is really kind and constructive in their feedback. Can't wait to start implementing some of the advice/suggestion shared on it.

I was going to share this last week...

I finished manually auditing 1.1K backlogged GitHub Issues for Mailspring, migrating the viable ones to a new Discourse-based issue tracking setup.

My partner and I started going for a walk every morning before work, from 10-30 minutes depending on the weather.

Also over the weekend we successfully adjusted our sleep cycle for the daylight savings time change, so started the week off well.

After 3+ months between a relocation and having to work overtime, I finally decided to focus on the things I love (at least for a little while):

  • Made time to record another tutorial for my Docker Development Tips&Tricks series on YouTube (this the video) 🎬
  • Started a new test project to learn how to create microservices in Golang 😎

Thank you @graciegregory and @devteam for reminding all of us to look at the good things that happened 🙂 it's so easy to get lost in the bad days..

I was able to turn a simple code review consulting into being hired for a bigger project to lead a team of developers for a new project for a big client.
