rfj_expungement is a tool being developed at Code For DC to help pro-bono (volunteer) lawyers. Rising for Justice holds clinics in Washington, DC where they help people navigate the surprisingly Byzantine process to clear their criminal records. If you have a criminal record (at least in the US) it can make it harder to get housing, a job, services, and more.

The PR is meant to clean up the repo following the National Day of Civic Hacking, where we had a bunch of great contributors.

This week I finished working on jamstack.systems.

JAMstack.systems is the presentation about fast, secure and dynamic sites built with JavaScript, APIs, and prerendered Markup, served without web servers.

I've made a demonstration in front of the whole company (70 people) of the new android app that replaces our old desktop gui to configure our exoskeleton via bluetooth.

We've been working on it for several months so I'm really happy to see the end of the tunnel!

It worked well there were no bugs so I'm really relieved!

[Sandeep Balachandran]

Oh yeah.. This week ,I successfully completed another week of my life.
