Week 274/5 Red Dead

Missed a week due to being on a plane to Long Beach for a wedding. The way I've been managing to do week notes again is by literally putting a 15 minute placeholder in my calendar so nothing gets scheduled over it, in a time I'm usually free, which obviously fails when I'm not.

In the last couple weeks we had our big company sponsored event - JAMstack_conf. I am generally kind of exhausted and bored by a lot of events these days (that's a me problem rather than a problem with events), but I found this one very invigorating and not just because we were hosting. There's something really fresh, and yet old-skool, going on with the JAMstack - people making sites that are best for the platform and that work really well on the open web - feels like the same wave that's causing everyone to start publishing back to their own sites and blogs again. I love it.

I've also done two of my civic duties as an American this week - I voted in the midterms and I did jury duty! Sadly, I didn't actually get called in for a court case. Maybe next time.

Mostly, though, I have been playing Red Dead Redemption 2. 36% complete.
