After two years of teaching Haskell to highschoolers, I will complete my notes and release them as a proper web book. While working on content I also wrote (in Haskell ofc) a compiler for custom markup (something like Pandoc). The book will defiantly not go deep as some other books, but I hope it will be the best resource on Serbian for starting with Haskell. Also, now when I have my dream tool for publishing, I am t…

Most people don't fully appreciate the amount of material a truly interested and motivated group of high school students can cover, grasp, and learn.

Kudos to you for being so prepared that your notes can be published as a book, and by proxy, for creating a rich learning environment wherein they're encouraged to flourish.

Well done.

I just accepted a new job offer as a senior engineer so this year I’m working on leveling up my career and raw coding skills as well as my management and leadership skills. Remote work has been a challenge for me and so I’m trying to combat that more effectively in 2023.

I'm working on NoisyCamp ( https://noisycamp.com ), a platform that helps Musicians finding and booking spaces to rehearse. I mostly implemented all the features I wanted, and I'm now focusing on getting more studios on the platform. I'm still working part time, and as a software engineer, it's a little bit harder to get motivated doing sales things than it was when programming the web app.

This is excellent, you can see the love that's been put into this. Feels like something that will do really well, keep going.

Beginning two long endeavors this year. 1. Becoming UltraStrong. A concept I made-up to test myself. Compete and not zero any events in an open strongman event on a Saturday, then complete a 50 miler (ultra marathon) on a Sunday. I did ultras in my 20s and competed in two strongman competitions last year. 2. Reading and writing an essay on all the books in my library; roughly 300 books. Posted on another thread.

Gotta say, I absolutely love the UltraStrong concept. Are you being particularly selective about the strongman events you're entering? I've come across a few that have one or two events where even the opening weight/implement might cause issues for anyone trying to run the next day, let alone run an ultramarathon.

I've been working on a site to track game purchases across a lot of the platforms, to help people manage their libraries and avoid duplicate features: https://trackmy.games/

Lots of potential places to take this in the future, so looking for ideas for more features to add!

Marketing (relaunching?) and/or finding the user base for my no-workflow CSS framework[0], working on a self-hosting solution for creators, and maybe an HHS[1] demo project if they ever get proper documentation up.
