This week, I was... interviewed on a secret podcast!
First position in Google with an article published on this amazing platform, in front of Nodejs and Microsoft links.
Thank you, @Dev.to .. <('_')> ..
super sweet!
Hosted my first office hours session. And people came! ๐ณ
so awesome!
Nice! How did it go?
Swell! People were engaged and asked great questions
Finished writing my longest tutorial guide yet about making a REST API.
Im pretty new to backend stuff so this was hugely beneficial in helping me learn a lot of stuff by writing a guide.
๐ This! Writing a tutorial/guide for others, or in general preparing to teach a new topic to someone else, is one of the best ways to dig deep on a topic and learn it really well
Will check it out. Saved it to read later
Well done! Bookmarked to read this evening. ๐
Vacation. Back to work Monday. Don't forget to take some downtime peeps!
I got a dev.to award for posting 8 weeks straight
Wow! That's an impressive streak!
I built and published my first public Discord bot, all about preventing hate speech and tracking hate speech users!

Awesome! Also, you have another new follower.

Celebrated my anniversary!
great job!
Two wins this week!
I got my tech blog's RSS feed set up and working, so I can cross post to here. :) Super excited about that!
Also started running again a few weeks ago (doing a Garmin training plan to build up to a 5k) and hit my longest run tonight - 2 miles! 1 mile doing 30 sec run / 30 sec walk intervals, then 1 mile during my warm up / cool down. Haven't gone that long in a very long time!
Do you happen to have a favorite tutorial for setting up an RSS feed? I'd like to do so myself - but resources are surprisingly scarce, hard to follow, or immediately jump to using a service
I don't, unfortunately. :( I'm using the framework Gridsome for my blog, so I used one of their plugins for RSS feed functionality, & fiddled around with it until I actually got back the right information. lol
Are you using a specific framework for your blog, or is it self-hosted / hosted somewhere else? I'd be happy to see what I can help you find if you'd like!
Nice! Keep it up!
