After 2.5 years at my current job I've decided it's time to pursue new challenges. Today is my last day. I'm proud of the things we accomplished, but am looking forward to new adventures ahead!!!

I finally cracked React.js for the first time as part of a technical assessment. I was pleasantly surprised. I thought it would feel heavier than Vue 3. I may have to explore it a little more 😀. Scott Nimrod

Well that sucks. I was pursuing a job at a startup in a similar space to my last job, but forgot to revisit my employment agreement and of course there is a 1 year non-compete clause. I shut down further interviews. I feel like a total jerk for wasting their time :(

Feeling an urge to try to speak at a conference again, but really having a hard time identifying what I could talk about for an hour. 🤔

Blue Eyed Samurai on Netflix is really really good. Worth a watch if you like animated series. Not one for the kids though.

My son said he was learning phonics in school today and cited the "I before E except after C" rule as one of the things he learned... I took great joy in informing him that this rule has been disproved by science.

Played around with Veo 3.1 this last weekend and had so much fun I started a web series on YouTube called "Melvin's Dungeon". Episodes are 1 minute long and take inspiration from series like The Office, The Guild, and Code Monkeys. Check it out! youtube.com/@MelvinsDungeon
