Week Notes 20#3

I'm posting this a little bit early, as tomorrow I'm off to Tenerife with my family. This week was super duper busy, and I'm pretty glad it's over:

• It was meetup week:
  • Tech Nottingham on Monday - I'm yet to write up my notes
  • NottsJS on Tuesday
  • Notts IoT on Wednesday - but I didn't go, as I needed a day off to try and get some packing done
  • PHPMiNDS on Thursday
• Preparing for holiday, so bits of packing and sorting stuff at home, but looking forward to a week away in Tenerife
• At work:
  • Finalised this PI's workload, which I'm fairly happy with
  • Had some good pairing with a colleague on some shell scripting to automate OpenSSL + certificate chain creation
  • Had a really positive End of Year appraisal - I'm in a good place for hopeful progression this year, and I know what I need to do to succeed
  • Presented my first piece of work at Technical Design Review at work
  • Performed first production release with new CI/CD setup, and aside from a minor change for the Production-only pipeline, everything worked awesomely
  • Lots of competing priorities, and lots that needed to be done before I left for Tenerife
• Didn't get a chance to work on Brid.gy Meetup support
• On this site:
  • Added the rewriting of Twitter usernames to @username for easier Twitter syndication i.e. /mf2/2020/01/ri7lj/
  • Realised I'm now hitting the limits of Pushbullet API access - /mf2/2020/01/yelaf/
  • Added the rewriting of #HashTags to a tag on the content for hash-tag, allowing me to own my hashtags, too
  • Interacted a lot with folks on Twitter using this site + Brid.gy syndication
• Back to Gousto this week, but unfortunately found that with meetup week (which was busier than planned, especially with PHPMiNDS moving a week behind) we only got round to 2/3 meals by tonight - not great! Hopefully when I'm back we'll be better at it.
