Well, it's time for me to start a new project.
Last night, while working on my _other_ project, I realized I needed a tool for it to test some things out.
Fingers crossed I can get it done in 3-4 days.

Just sent my 13th weekly product update to my customers for sendbroadcast.net.
It's become a habit now that every Sunday night, I look at my changelog and summarize what I've updated/improved/fixed and fire off an update to my customers.

Been reading the book, The Psychology of Money.
An idea in there is that it's oftentimes hard to know how much of a result is attributable to luck or skill.
As a result, this makes it hard to extrapolate the lessons from someone else's outcome to apply to your own situation.

Working on sendbroadcast.net, I am constantly reminded how glad I am to have spent the time writing unit tests.
At the start of any side project, it's so easy to just code. But as complexity increases, tests are what gives me the confidence to ship.
