Week Notes 20#21
A busy week ending with a bank holiday:
- Our Fire Stick TV remote died, which was pretty annoying, but the Android app appears to be fairly good
- Played a lot of Apex Legends, which I've again been doing pretty well with
- Enjoyed the first quest, which was a nice story-based challenge
- Busy week at work, unfortunately not ending as well as I'd hoped, with our production release on Tuesday not being ready
- But also a bit quiet, with a few lulls
- Got some good cross-team collaboration, and some great learnings from different approaches to the same problems
- Felt like I'd worked two days in one, on Friday
- Was pretty happy with my article Converting Output from Rest Assured to Curl Requests
- Fought, but finally got around to the Netlify post-deploy notifications migration sorted, but will blog about it tomorrow
- Updated my Performing Mutual TLS Authentication with Rest Assured (via Apache HTTP Client) article updated with real working code, as it wasn't actually working, as I discovered a couple of weeks ago
- Bank holiday's been pretty relaxed, and haven't really got much done on my projects
- Had our first KFC since lockdown started! It was so good
- Watched The Wrong Missy
- Was a little bit sad because they were in a beautiful hotel in Hawaii, and it's unlikely we'll be able to go on holiday until maybe this time next year
- Watched Long Shot
- Watched Just Friends
- Watched Stranger Than Fiction
- New Tech Nottingham / Women in Tech seasons were announced - very excited
- Not much reading this week
- Did some yoga with Anna this afternoon, which was different, but nice, and I think I'm gonna try to do more of!
- Spent less time outside of the house this week than planned
- Managed to get shopping order for tomorrow, which was pretty good last-minut
- Like normal life, although I realised I needed a haircut over a month ago, I still haven't done it 😅
- Realised that since October (the last time I weighed myself + recorded it) I've lost 5kg. Not bad! No clue if it's related to the lockdown, and no longer having big lunches at work
