New job!

Gave notice, started trying to write up 5 years of domain knowledge into Confluence, and working with the new company to get my equipment ordered. New company is remote first, so that fits better with my work ideals :)

Other than that, I also made a really yummy and healthy hazelnut spread with all-natural ingredients with no sugar added.

Yesterday, I just completed my first year anniversary at DEV.

I came to know about DEV last year because of Hacktoberfest. Now, When I look back at this is amazing journey I can't imagine how I was able to spend any day without it. A year back, I used to open and check my Instagram for any notifications whenever I woke up in the morning.

But now, the first thing I do when I wake up is check my DEV and GitHub. Thanks to the wonderful DEV Community fir the amazing experiences. ❤️

Coded a tricky bit of recursive (and then some!) logic into the core of an open-source project github.com/pypyr/pypyr

While maintaining backwards compatibility. AND got it to 100% test coverage. 😊

Hacked my ternary-swap VS Code extension to work with optional chaining, and be better with comments. Wrote my first blog in a year or so about making the extension (a 2 parter). Took Twitter and LinkedIn off of my phone. Conquered an annoying app update bug at work. Won a game of Brogue. Lots of little things make a good week (=

Finished a deployment script for a project that I every now and then work on.

Apart from that, I am going to work on a dashboard application that allows me to deploy my own git repo's on my servers.
