Today has been a complete waste of time.
In times like this, I question why I am even here.
Sometimes, corporate life is like this.
Most times, it isn't, but it makes me wonder about how dangerous it is sometimes to settle for what is comfortable.

It happened again last night.
The same nightmare as before.
Why does this keep happening? Where is this all coming from? Why does my brain keep playing these games with me?
I've never, ever, come close to having this nightmare happen to me IRL, so, why?

Just cancelled 3 video streaming subscriptions. Don't have time to be watching TV, makes no sense to keep the subscriptions.

I'm halfway through a 2-hour leadership townhall session and I can't stop thinking about how disconnected I feel both from the C-level people talking, but also from their overall discourse and "direction". It's all full of corporate jargon, it's unnatural and even cringe.

Just solved an issue that had been nagging me with the Rails port of jobsinenglish. (Not anything to do with Rails).
Sometimes sharing your progress (or lack thereof) with others, can help you in ways you didn't even think was possible simply by sharing.
Thank you, mate!

I enrolled in a mobile phone repair course which I'll take by the end of January.
I have a bunch of devices (iPhones and iPads) at home I want to bring back to life.
Also, I want to be able to figure out how to fix my electronics, so that's a first step towards that.

I thought I'd be relentlessly coding after taking a break from my day job, but with family visiting + friends during holidays, progress has been slow.
However, I have managed to make very interesting progress with porting jobsinenglish.dk to Rails 8.

I've been really enjoying the simplicity and the "it just works" feeling that Rails 8 has been giving me.
It is such a pleasure to use.
I might just have found the keeper.

Trying to deploy the RoR app I made in the last couple of days to my server using @coolify.io
Deployment was successful but I am still getting a 404.
I've checked everything I can think of, but still no luck.
I've messaged support for help, so now I'll wait and focus on something else.

I've have the "frontend" almost done. I also have integrated Stripe -first thing I did, actually (I'm learning).
I coded the ability to manually add jobs via a nice admin dashboard Windsurf built for me.
I am leaving the scraping bit until the end.
I am doing things very differently than before!

I've been playing again with Windsurf and the idea of rebuilding jobsinenglish.dk fully from the ground up.
After leaving behind the idea of using Nextjs, I thought why not try Rails 8, like the cool kids 👀 @poppacalypse.bsky.social
I marvel at how much I've been able to achieve in so little time

It is the end of 2024.
Nordea, a bank in Denmark, requires me to fill out a Word document (which includes dynamic content that can only be viewed by having Word installed, which I do not have on Mac), to process an international transfer for which they have functionality in their app.
Ridiculous.

I'm running an experiment 🔬
I'll be documenting everything in my blog, but I'll post smaller updates here.
I am almost done with my private Django boilerplate, but had an idea yesterday:
What would it actually take to build an MVP in say, Nextjs (which I know nothing about) with Ai (Windsurf) 🥸

I solved a code issue that had been eating me alive for a while.
This is an old project, and I had forgotten I had to run a script that would minify the css, which is what's used in prod 🤦♂️
So stupid.
Be nice to yourself and document your code. Your future self will thank you.
