Absolutely fantastic article. I got obsessed with cellular automata a few years back and did some experiments on Codepen:

This week was rough for me, it was full of unforeseen events like a PC without access to the graphic system, my laptop with the screen with occasional glitch effect, my vision being affected by conjunctivitis, sore throat, accumulated uni content, and stagnant projects... So, I believe that my win this week is surviving. I'm sure I'll have a lot of things to fix but everything will be calmer soon.

I was able to make my website responsive enough on desktop on mobile. it's essentially just a simple web calculator that i made from watching a youtube video. styling it was such a pain.

I managed to publish an article that shows how easy we can now send sms from the www to New-Caledonia :

It's the achievement of a whole teamwork and patient work. The team is really very excited about that. Now, I'll be able to build some cool tweeks around it ;-p

I was able to get back to work on the calendar app I made for my mom after a long time dealing with other things. I fixed a big bug and added a nice feature.

Well my win is small, but hey it's a start. I have managed to get 10 users for Lambda, my solution to privacy concerns in social media app. Lambda is the world's first ever open-source and privacy base social media app.

I'm trying to finish my first "real" game. I've got a 2D OpenGL renderer so far and I've discovered the magic of glShaderBinary() and SPIR-V, which I already used in Vulkan but man it makes GL stuff easier (and more standardized!)

I wrote an article I've been thinking about for a while on the different contexts in which we all work and to which we must learn how to allocate our time and effort: the technical, the tactical, the strategic, and the political.
