An interesting day today — felt like I got a good bit done while also feeling like I didn’t get much done at the same time.

  • Started off with a “do hard stuff” meeting where I decided to componentize the existing svelte code I had written for reservoir sampling. I think the next main thing to do is to make it pretty.
  • Struggled a bit more with CSES problem 1203
  • Had a coffee chat with a friendly RCer who’s also into maps
  • Spent a good chunk of time learning more about frontend development lifecycle. Wireframed and began working on the frontend for our RC pairing jam idea (person > project matcher)
  • Learned a good bit about how flexible CSS can be.
  • Found out that the author of the very first technical book I read is pretty active in RC! Sent him a message, which was really cool.
