Diary 2019-02-04
I feel like I'm not really hitting a coherent plan, currently, just kind of looking at what interests me.
I've been kind of focusing on:
- Making more effort to learn Erlang (I really should have been working alongside the book; my grasp on syntax is Pretty Bad, currently.)
- Looking at comprehensive specifications for existing products and going "Hm, I bet I could implement this specification, then figure out how to generalize it". I might try to find, like, two more related but distinct specifications, and try to implement them in terms of common functionality and specializations for each one.
Other than that ridiculously huge idea for an undertaking (the specification I'm looking at right now is 700 kb of plaintext), I should also get back into reading sometime. Thinking over the situation at work, I'll try to avoid ramping up too hard until we get to pull other teams into the current project and do more interesting things.
I should make sure to keep getting enough sleep, though, and as part of that... Good night.
