Lady Yuna in her delightful elderly lady Halloween costume. Just want you to know she’s purring loudly. She loves costume time. I think she knows a fun treat is coming after

Happy Halloween 🎃
My cat was not a fan of my mask.

Working on a little Halloween game that is a rework of a previous memory game I made.
Was losing my mind why it wouldn't trigger game over when two pairs were found.
Turns out I had typed it wrong. Object.value() instead of Object.values() so it was always undefined.
Mondays, right!?

“My art isn’t good, my writing isn’t good, I’m just bad at making things. ”

Just do the thing.
If you love it.

Draw, paint, write silly poems.

Take out of focus pictures
Of the ones you love.

Having to hit that git restore after an hour of adding too much sauce to my spaghetti code.
Now just sitting in the dark staring at my computer like

Was locked in earlier today while coding and about an hour in I realize I’m slumped over and in full shrimp form.
Posture check!! Keep your backs and necks safe out there.

Was doing an easy leetcode challenge to merge sorted arrays.
Ok, simple. A little splice here a concat there. Works on my end.
In leetcode it fails. Of course they throw me a weird curveball
The final sorted array should not be returned by the function, but instead be stored inside the array nums1.

Today is the end of Windows 10 support.
Kind of glad I no longer work at my local IT MSP. A lot of the businesses that they manage have old equipment and won’t be able to upgrade. It’s definitely going to be a headache for them.

Starting the day strong with a handful of leetcode challenges.
It's been awhile since I've done any leetcode and it shows.
I'm making silly ass mistakes on what should be easy, but I forgot the tricky edge cases that leetcode throws at you.

Having lots of fun playing silent hill f. It’s stressing me out so much, which is a good thing in a horror game.

Working on Anki/Banki in between work and in most of my free time experimenting more with Strudel repl.
Learned how to use arrange(), it takes tuples of duration and patterns.
Found ways to use multiple stacks in different ways for arrangement.
And the most fun, all the visual options!

Having way too much fun with Strudel repl.
Got to remember to make time for finding work and freelance clients, and of course, my weakness, networking.
But Strudel has a hold on me. I crave to learn more to understand it.

After reading some of the docs and watching a short video, I'm kind of getting the hang of using strudel repl. This is a first attempt at combining sounds to play together. Having lots of fun experimenting!

Oh, I definitely need to dive deep into this!!

Making changes to my "Sounds Spooky" project so that the user can adjust some of the settings for the audio visualizer.
At the moment I have it so they can change the bar spacing, and make it radial or mirror. Super fun!

Been doing everything except finishing the reset password feature 😞

Found this pretty useful site that has tons of cheat sheets and references for many programming languages, Linux commands, databases, and more. The ads that pop up on it are a tad annoying but it seems to be a good resource #100Devs
