- Life:
- Focusing on family life. Getting to know my children better. Have to improve my parenting skills, probably my most challenging undertaking to date. I hope to live up to expectations, and provide the best version of myself for them.
- Trying to reduce consumption of red meat as well as refined sugars.
- Professional:
- Settling into the new team dynamics and focusing on getting things done.
- Glad to move to tasks more focused on software, that rely less on the hardware side of things.
- I’ve written a lot of C and Perl in the last years. I’m trying to improve my Python, by learning more “the proper way” of doing things, and the language’s use beyond quick write & use & throw scripts. So far mixed success, but getting better at it.
- Learning in my free time:
- Hugo and static websites, for this personal website (domains, Cloudfare, etc).
- Reading through a few parenting books. I want to get a grasp on the field, and what education strategies are effective and align to my values and way of seeing things. Probably the topic of a future post or two.
- Reading:
- Japanese historic fiction.
- Continuing to work my way through the works in the S.F. Masterworks series (Roadside Picnic was last).
- Misc:
- Magic the Gathering: played some Sealed for the first time. Very enjoyable experience to get to prepare a deck and battle with it right away. Nice! Also, shifting to GW Maverick and MonoW Painter in Legacy.
