I have been working on a Rust crate to manage recurrence rules and it has helped me a lot to improve my knowledge with Rust.

I also reached 1k followers here on Dev.to and I am suuuuper happy with that!

I have publicly came out as autistic this week. I never wrote anything like that before: raw, my story as is, with unrefined ideas and vulnerable to criticism from both sides of neurodiversity.

Despite my worst fears, I was accepted for who I am, for all of me, here and IRL.

And even got the help I asked to build digital tools for neurodivergent people to have a chance and have a meaningful professional life at the very least.

Wrote a post that did nicely here.

Finally finished writing a book chapter that's been dragging on for too long. Guest hosted the foojay.io podcast which was nice. It should be out next week.

My python library just hit 30 stars and 3 people have used it in their projects. That's a big motivation kick for me.

I've succesfully supervised a project for the first time! Been programming for a while myself, but never been responsible for somebody else's work before.

I didn't really enjoy it, but I did it and it worked out. Yay! ๐ŸŽ‰

Had a series of major breakthroughs on some really tricky ETL pipelines I'm working on! And then wrapped up some long running analyses as a result

Very nice! Major congrats. ๐Ÿ™Œ

And this is random, but every time I hear "pipelines" I can't help but think of this old Windows screensaver:

Haha yes indeed. Way back when they used to give away those free AOL discs at Blockbuster and the dancing baby was like the only meme on the internet. Simpler times!
