My First Blog Post

I’ve been listening to the Working Code podcast and really liked their suggestion to learn in public and use blogging as a way to remember things. So here I am, writing a blog.

My plan is to write semi-regularly on here - even if it’s just a small post - about any kinds of problems or challenges I’m facing in my day-to-day life. Those could be technical, personal, or anything in-between. Hopefully someone out there gets some use out of my documented stream-of-consciousness.

Also, today I was looking back on old Facebook posts and pictures and seeing what a goober I was 20 years ago. I wish I had dev blogs from back then, when I was first starting out, that I could go back and cringe at. I’ve been messing with software for so long that it’s easy to forget where I came from. I know there were areas where I struggled hard that are a piece of cake now, but there’s no record of that. I’d love to look back, see my awful code and lack of understanding, and have perspective on how I’ve grown.
