Getting back my lost friend. โฅ
We didn't interact for more than 6 months, she apologized and we are now on good terms again :)
This made me very happy to read. So glad you and your friend reunited!
Thank you ๐ค
I envy yu in a good way๐ I miss my friend because of this lockdown
Ah, I can relate to that. Fret not, good days are coming. Stay connected with your friend. :)
Yeah hoping for better days๐ค๐ผ
That's nice. It's best to let go of things that stop people being friends.
true! :)
This week I switched to yoga after a month of generic stretch exercises. I'm still very far from where I want be fitness wise--working from home made me a rusty robot--but it is good to get some mobility back. ๐
I bought a new pair of trainers can't wait to run in them.
I'm with you! I've been using my indoor exercise bike without doing really any stretching for over two months!! I really need to get back into stretching and yoga.
I completed a couple of milestones with respect to job searching. Next week I am getting ready to move, so it was nice to make some progress this week.
I also got news that my most recent conference talk (virtual) was the best attended non-keynote talk of the event. ๐ That was awesome.
Oh that's great news what was your talk about?
It was an introductory security talk.
I started and shipped a new project in the last 3 days. Itโs a Twitter bot that queries the Can I Use? database and responds to you with compatibility info, which can be good for use in discussion threads.
I wrote about it here, too.

That's really good. I often refer to can I use for subtleties that may come up.
Thanks! I hope you get a chance to check it out.
Just did.
I had a quick chat with a recruiter at a big tech company. Nothing may come from it, but it feels like a career win to have someone talk me to "on the inside".
I also has fun building a Vaporwave influenced CSS stylesheet for stylestage.dev.
Published updates to my game logoquiz.dev/. Check it out if you want to procrastinate a little bit this Friday.
Just played it. Really well made.
Thanks mate!
Good work! I got some more levels in the making, will release soon :D
Playing that this weekend.
Only made it to level three so far :D Really well done!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it :D
I hit my goal of 6 blog posts published in 2020!! It might not seem like much, but I've posted more this year than all my other years combined.
This week, I shared the most memorable JavaScript videos throughout my JavaScript journey thus far. Apparently, hundreds of people also deemed it quite valuable. ๐

Sounds like you've been really productive.
Yeah I'm really happy ๐๐ผโ
Not at all work related since I've been on vacation this week, but I finally finished watching all of Bleach (I've been working on it on and off for the past 6 months, glad I watched it but not likely to do so again), finally got around to watching The Mandalorian (far better than I expected given my views on most of the movies since the Disney acquisition, really looking forwards to the next season) and BNA (actually sad that the series is so short, which is rare for me), and finally got started watching Dragon Ball for the first time (and wow, blatantly obvious that it's from the late 80's just from the first 5 minutes of the first episode).
I should really check out Dragon Ball also.
Funny memory was finding my dad watching it when I was a kid โ he quickly changed the channel to the news (my parents were trying to limit the number of cartoons I watched) ๐๐๐
Especially funny because, by that point, Dragon Ball hadn't been on the air for years, so good old dad was deep into reruns.
Prior to watching it now, all I've ever seen of the entire franchise is a few bits and pieces of some of the Dragon Ball Z episodes. The original series definitely shows it's age in the animation style (not bad, just 'vintage'), the humor (some of which even in Japan probably would not make it to the air as-is today), and the multiple minute long intro song (both the duration and the style), but still has a lot of the ridiculous over-the-top silliness that I love about shounen and seinen series.
