I'm working on workwithgo.com, a job website targetted for Go engineers.

Been developing it on and off for some time though, but now have some extra time to put into it.

A book to help programmers move forward in their career by understanding and leveraging at a greater level of mastery how humans and computers interact. I'm about 300 pages in on the first draft, easily past the half-way point, and now all I need to do is push hard to get the initial content on paper. Then comes the hard work of editing/sourcing. (It's all hard work, actually. I have no idea why people go to the trouble to write books. It is an singularly difficult and thankless job for most authors, more of a calling than an occupation.)

Trying to figure out how to host an online hackathon now that all universities are closed. Requires a lot less logistical work and _way_ less funds but hard to drive engagement. Hopefully people will be bored enough in a few months and we can still get great prizes from sponsors

My current pet project is Vaulty. It’s a service that allows you to send email attachments to your cloud storage account. At the moment, I’m considering pivoting this slightly into an email archiving service, but haven’t yet decided.

I ended up learning quite a bit about how email works and how to setup an email server from scratch. The email backend is written in Rust and hooks into a Postfix server as a filter. Since I am not storing any mail, I’d like to eventually migrate to either an LMTP server or a custom SMTP server.

I also used this as a chance to learn Ansible. I’ve been pretty impressed with how much easier server provisioning becomes, especially when compared to a more manual approach.

Currently, the mail backend is fully working for Dropbox. Right now, I am setting up a landing page to gauge interest. After that, most of the work will be on the web app side.

The project is open source, for now: https://github.com/aksiksi/vaulty
