• Completed a conversion from a previous web-based CI/CD automation tool to using ansible for a majority of the operational tasks.
• Broke the bootloader of the micro-controller for an old Adafruit NeoPixel goggles project (Arduino IDE 2 on linux is... fragile)
• Fixed the bootloader of the micro-controller for an old Adafruit NeoPixel goggles project using another Arduino and some super janky non-soldered contacts (everyone hold your breath and don't move while I push this button!)
• Restarted playing point & click game Primordia. Really enjoying this one.

Honestly, I didn't have any major win this week. Only some small wins here and there!

[Jess Lee]

Small wins are just as important imo

[Vaibhav Dwivedi]

That's reassuring :)

I was an organizer at a conference for the first time with Momentum 2024.

I also got to give a talk at the conference as an emergency sub and did well with 94 people in attendance.

My major in this week was received a good feedback of the client's SM and out of scope of the work start to study some musics to play in a event at end of the year.

I've built a fun project this week called Durable Swarm (you can check my latest tutorial about it). I added just 24 lines of code on top of OpenAI's Swarm to make it reliable. It's a drop-in replacement for Swarm that adds reliable, durable execution to multi-agent systems.

I'm super excited to build more fun projects on top of it!

[Neurabot]

Nice. I will look for tutorial.

My win this week was seeing some amazing growth! I’m almost at 12k followers on DEV.to with 170K post readers, and my GitHub followers jumped from 0 to 16.

It might seem small, but it's a big achievement for me.

I had stopped writing for a while because my content wasn’t reaching many people. But in September, I picked it back up, and the results have been such a drastic change—definitely a big personal win!

Finished two Ansible playbooks to automate our standard web server setup. Still need to test it in anger, but no more boring, repetitive new server configuration.
