I got a job offer I was waiting for almost a month. And now I have to pack my stuff, sell my car, apartment, things, throw old junk away and then travel ~6.5k kilometres away from my place. A whole new life in less than 2 weeks from now! Yeehaw!
It's a huuuuuuge win. Congrats!!! You will figure it out. no worries. Hope all the best!
We added a protocol in standup-style team meetings that everyone says "thank u, next" when they are done talking, to cut down on awkward silences and keep things moving.
Big success so far.
That's what happens when Ariana Grande is your scrum master lol
Sweet, we have a scrum masterish person who comes up with random orders to do the stand up, by age, by name, by the time you started work, and a few really crazy criterion too.
Our team just goes in a circle for those in person. For those that dial-in, we just use alphabetical order by last name. This is the order that people show up in Chime, so it's just going "down the list" for them.
I will suggest this in my team. Really like it.
This week, I finally published my first open source npm package 🔥
github.com/analizapandac/share-tex...
It's a small JS utility library for sharing text content via WhatsApp or via the native sharing widget of your device.
Nice!
Impressive :)
This week, I...finally fixed a bug that I'd been putting off for a few weeks!
(i don't know what these scary puppets are but I love them)
You need a better one!
I completed my MSc 🎉🎊. Last week, I submitted my dissertation, the code of which I will make open-source once it's graded. That was a hectic last year, but Iearned a lot and look forward to getting back in the product development game.
So now only your paper and project has been shipped, but also you are onboard to the job market now.
Congratulation, and Good luck with the big game!🌟
I was on a podcast -- as a guest instead of an interviewer 🤠
It was the Remote Ruby podcast with Jason Charnes and Chris Oliver!
Wow, congrats! may I get an autograph from you, before you got more fame?
(and selling it on eBay...🤔)
Wrote my first blog post!
Congrats!
GOT A BADGE
Big week!
I guess some credit goes to you too... :)
I created Postwoman 👽 - An online, open source API request builder which helps you create your requests faster, saving you precious time on your development.
I wrote about it on dev.to here and getting lot of support from my fellow devs. Best week ever!!
I just delivered the last of my 3 back-to-back talks this Wednesday ... which were my first "serious" talks. Nothing more on deck -- phew!
I'm a year into conference/webinar speaking with no serious background in rhetoric, acting, or teaching (although, luckily, also without too much stage fright).
It was a lot of work. Like, part-time job levels of work.
But I gave 3 talks (1 conference and 2 "guest" webinars on YouTube series) that I'm proud of.
I hope to write a retrospective post with proper thank-yous to people who got me here.
Now off to a well-earned break of just doing my "real job!"
P.S. I presented about:
My first dev.to contribution and my first time with Ruby on rails (went smoothly thanks to God documentation from the team!)
github.com/thepracticaldev/dev.to/...
God documentation was a typo... but maybe not :)
I've deployed a really big feature I've worked on for almost three months!🥳🥳
Pairing up with a mobile dev to smash a bug with Android push notification icons not showing up right on random phone models. Not being a mobile developer I was able to be a rubber duck / junior developer and ask all the dump questions to rethink the existing implementation and we managed fix the issue finally.
My name has been listed on two sorta biggie local organization's website.
My crazy volunteer is getting unexpected paying me back, by making me recognised.
As a result, when I google my name, I am on top, ahead of the other one who has the same name(, and funnily, similar background with my previous study).🤘
Result two: I have three (non-paid) job title now.
This week I interviewed at YouTube—and no matter the outcome, I’m beyond thrilled with how well I performed. 😃 I decidedly DID NOT FLOP. If I can get through an interview at YouTube without breaking a sweat, I can do it anywhere. 🥳
