I write this from the RDU airport. I’m on my way up to NYC to kick off a new (and somewhat short) adventure. I’ll be attending a 6-week batch at The Recurse Center. I’m excited, nervous, and everything in between. For me, this is an opportunity to get back into the learning mindset in an immersive environment with other folks looking to program at the edge of our collective abilities.

As for what I’ll focus on, I’ve got many ideas floating around. I want to better understand distributed systems. I want to revisit some of the hardware concepts and projects I dabbled in years ago. I want to be able to actually explain some of the CS concepts that I handwave about in a work environment. And I want to fall in love with programming for the sake of programming again.

Watch this space; there will be many more updates in the coming weeks. 🚀
