Progress Report - May 2020

almost 4 years ago

I post a progress report showing what I did and how my products performed each month.
Last month's report can be seen here.

What did I do

Productive Hours in May
Hours worked on side-projects in May

I worked 38 productive on side projects hours last month.

To make these progress reports a bit more interesting, from now on I'll post my favourite song, TV show, and article I read last month.

Article of the Month: This nerd-sniping math problem 😁
Song of the Month: Akira the Don & Naval Ravikant - The Builder and The Seller

I've been very busy with my main jobs. On the side, I mostly worked on VIGOR and on maintaining some of my old code repositories. I rewrote most of my projects that make use of Dfuse because I hit the free tier limit very quickly. I had an interesting chat about what counts as a document and the best way to minimize Dfuse costs for contracts with low volume. Maybe that's worth a blog post on its own.
I didn’t start a new side project.
I kept toying around with Rust and built my first small app that scrapes a website and downloads something. The next useful project will be an EOSIO Vanity Key Generator. I already have this functionality as part of eosiac but Rust should be a lot faster than doing all of this in Node.js.
