Nothing special this week! Just getting on with regular work :) Doing Yoga for the last two weeks. And doing some running. Taking a break from coding and reading tech-heavy articles. Doing general timepass.

At the office, we're ramping up work on a new project for behavioral health providers to run their practice and increase engagement with patients and their families.

At home, I'm continuing to work on my family organization app (Honeys Household). This month, I'm adding the family calendar and continuing to add to the new user help documentation for the budgeting module.

Writing a whole new set of security policies and procedures in preparation for HITRUST certification. Kill me now.

Since the past month or longer I've had a goal to work towards... And there's just 54 days left until I create my (first) biggest project - a local marketplace, which is something just a little larger than an online store.

I took it up because it's challenging, and because it's a service to the community since down here in my city there isn't anything like it (except for some a company that needs high fees).

Thanks to a lot of you Hashnoders I've been able to really hone my skills and I think it's possible :-)

I'm one of the folks who looks after our org's Design System, which supports all of our various teams and software projects. At the moment, my coworkers on this team have all been temporarily assigned to other teams to help make progress on time sensitive tasks.

This leaves myself and a QA engineer hanging out, trying to help support whomever needs help across the company. I have some specialized knowledge in this area, as I helped design and build the system, but in many cases I feel certain technical questions are a bit beyond myself.

Here's a sample interaction:

At the very least, I can help commiserate with other devs who might be stuck on something...that they aren't alone. That's worth something, right? haha.

I am on vacation. so I only work like 15 hours a week.

• currently refactoring the API to the CORS middleware in rust
• writing the corresponding react app with RxJS
• reviewing some code

in my free time :)

• trying to transpose a soul song from piano/trumpet/singer to a finger-style guitar song. Actually I spent 5 hours just trying to figure out the right tuning on my guitar so I can stay within the same notes and close tonal inversions of the chords ....

And I should start writing my PHP-Talk for the meetup about generator based co-routines in socket streams and one for the Rust meetup.

This is my rough outlined plan for the week.

at Job:

First day at a new company. Nothing is more boring than setting up a new laptop!

at Home:

Exploring on Vert.x framework for a project. Never thought Java could beat NodeJS in-terms of concurrency. Vertx follows multi-threaded event loop concept + "everything is asynchronous" principle. So basically, one Vertx instance/verticle = Clustered NodeJS instances.

Day-Job

Currently implementing a grid-layout into an existing interface in order to align it with our design standards. The rest of the week, I will have to attend a kickoff meeting and continue to align the interface to our design standards.

At home

Test are coming up, so I have to get some learning done. However, I want to take some time to write a Hashnode API benchmarking tool, because over here in Germany, the Hashnode non-public API is very slow, which leads to bad UX for me. Maybe I can help Team Hashnode fix the problem 😁
