Now

These are all the things I am currently involved in spanning a few days in the past, and the foreseeable future.

Working

  • As a team lead, software engineer and open-source maintainer on Openverse, a search engine for openly-licensed media. It is a WordPress project that indexes audio and images that have either permissive Creative Commons licenses or are in the public domain and makes them freely accessible.

Building

  • pls, a prettier and powerful ls(1) for the pros. I learn by building stuff and this is something I'm building to learn Rust.
  • Récivi, a new type of résumé that is targeted at computers first and can be converted to any human format when needed. It's what powers this website.
  • My personal website which is what you're reading night now. Maintaining this website and building it further is both fun and challenging.

Learning

  • How to lead a team. I'm faily new to the leadership thing and I want to do a really good job of representing my team. Thankfully I have coaching and training sessions to help.
  • Rust, a fantastic language, with so many good decisions, that absolutely deserves the love it gets from the dev community. I am learning Rust by building a CLI app pls with it.
  • To use the terminal more and more, and use the mouse as infrequently as possible. To that end I'm incorporating new CLI tools into my work, trying to use a terminal editor, and creating and memorising keymaps.
  • To write more. I want to improve my writing and cultivate a habit of jotting down notes and interesting observations. That'll go on my blog.

Writing

  • Posts on my site! Give them a read and see if you like them! Also, please let me know if you do, I would appreciate the dopamine hit.
