My local library is giving me a 3d printer to play around with because they don’t know how to use it. I’m supposed to give it back to them with some ideas on how to use it without breaking it. πŸ˜„

My computer was slowing down. I started revisit virtual technologies such VMWare, Virtualbox. I have faced some issues like extracting those both softwares from old CD/DVD.

After hours of patience, i didn't succeed on that mission. Any tip about extracting something from an altered 10 years old CD/DVD ? Though, I have used EasyRecoveryTools CD. No success ahead !

Writing up Destruction plans for software I wrote (or maintained) for 5 or 10+ years.
Company going bye bye (buy) and we're turning off the lights.
It's bittersweet yet cathartic.

Undeploying and Deprovisioning.

Thanks,
There is a rare and not-small severance at the end, and then the job search begins in earnest! I have many contacts some "ins" and several leads. I'm hoping for a change of industry but not of title. (My employer is not a software house, so that is why I can look to being a developer while still changing industries :D)

Believe it or not, I earned a 4 Week Community Wellness Streak this month. I also started contributing to open-source projects. The project that I'm following would be the dev-encyclopedia project

Passing a first interview for a new position. Close to 2h talking in English about my career, success and fails...

For a Spanish 55yrs old man who started to learn English (seriously) is surely the most win not of the week but of the year

You got it. It allows you to build and scale web apps in minutes without introducing new stacks in the ecosystem πŸ”₯

Please, I have a question. I used to see github animated visuals in homepage. Or hashnode.com visuals alongside writings in homepage.

How is it made ? Is it with always Figma or something else ? I would like your answer. Currently, I work on Figma and explore opportunities related to beautiful visuals.
