I made some good progress on a blog post I've been working a touch too long on. I created some art I'm mildly proud of. And finally, I made more progress learning Docker and Kubernetes for a new job I start on Aug 9.

All-in-all, a solid week. Wishing everyone a happy and relaxing weekend to come!

I just read your post about react hooks, and it came just in time. Front end development is something I have always struggled with and React has become my favorite framework to work with after switching over from Angular. Also, if you want to learn more about Docker Kubernetes, and OpenShift feel free to view my profile :)

Thank you, this comment made my whole day! It's a great feeling to know something you created was of worth to another.

A visit to your page shows me that my 'to read' list just got a bit longer 😉

Good luck with the new job! Glad it's motivating you to do explicit learning. Remember that you're going to keep learning every day on the job, so if there's something you enter day one wishing you knew better, don't worry it will come.

Thank you Ben!

I have a quote that keeps me going from someone I went to boot camp with, who was one of those people that had been doing this stuff longer than I've been around and didn't actually need a boot camp at all, but I digress. He got a job, and after a month he told our little friend group "Most days I still don't know what I'm doing."

I think I'll be reminding myself of that statement a lot in the coming weeks and months.
