summary

The moment I woke up today I shot off to the cafe to work on the JS Data Structures and Algorithms. It's tough coding from scratch, but writing and forcing myself to actually think through code is something I need to train more often, as I've spent too much time trying to be a sponge at 2x on the modern web stack without understanding things at a more fundamental level. I do want to get in the groove of tinkering/creating more and so I restarted my ReactFiber explorations. I also started the Math Foundations I course on Math Academy, and realized what I've been missing. What started as 15 minutes at the end of the day turned into 2 hours as I wanted to make up for lost XP. It's incredibly well done and I'm lookig forward to the rest. Tomorrow I want to spend some time reading through Mark Kagach's summary of David Deutsch's works. It was cool chatting with him, the first to reach out on my new X identity. Gotta respect those who put in the time to understand hard things
