What was your win this week?

Our team finished second in the corporate hackathon, and we got to present our idea to the CEO (win #1). During the presentation, I made a joke related to the CEO and didn't get fired for it (win #2)... at least, not yet 😋

Next year, we'll go for the overall win 😊

• This week was monotonous.
• Spent literally 30 hours trying to convert all of the old PHP code of my app to secure and new code.
• Deleted more than half of my server's files since they were outdated and pretty much useless XD
• Although, the end results are satisfying. There are soooo many changes to my GitHub repository since my last commit.

And, guess what....
My app finally hit 400 users!

Here are the things I've managed to do:

• company homepage has most of the skeleton layout done (only missing styling and functionality).
• I connected the AWS SES, Lambda, and API Gateway services together (only needs to connect to the frontend now).
• I studied Typescript for a few days in the week.
• continued to network and expand my connections.

• Finished 365 days of Italian on Duolingo: twitter.com/MokoSharma/status/1460...
• Successfully debugged a deadlock at work.
• Figured out the end the end process of grabbing call stacks using Microsoft.Diagnostics library (same one as Perf View): github.com/Maoni0/realmon/issues/8

I've submitted my DEV + GitHub Hackathon project 🥳

And also I have been learning more about streaming data with Materialize and I've also been playing around with AdonisJS which is a great Node.js freamework!

Taking part in a live coding event, learning how to improve testing and actually using more keyboard shortcuts in PhpStorm, and sadly probably one of the last in-person event before another so-called lockdown, as our !civilized && !intelligent && !solidary first-world society failed another time to handle the covid pandemic.

Thanks so much for everyone taking part and for Roland / Never Code Alone for the courage and effort to organize an actual event these days!

I just finished the third phase on Ruby in my coding bootcamp. Starting Rails this coming week, then it'll be time to create my final project. My portfolio is growing, I might have some freelance work starting soon, and I'm starting to actually feel like a real programmer!

I launched a new side project I've been working on with my friends yesterday

Everything was going great this week. I have a project on neural networks with vanilla C99 and it's almost done. I am currently preparing the documentation. I hope to publish it on github as soon as possible. Everything was fine. However, I had to leave the job I was working as a remote copywriter 2 days ago. It will be a difficult time financially. I hope I can find a new remote job

I finally made a middlewear block component for my gatsby project to give the client full functionality through the cms using graphql fragments. Now all I have to do is add in the sass and hand it off!
