So lovely to be home and have coffee from my little espresso machine. Feels good to save those $5. Tastes great too.
I have like 2 weeks until I start work again. Excited about the new gig! But also kind of sad that my time off is coming to an end. Was thinking specifically about how I want to go out and do more walking around NYC before work starts. We’ll see if I change this habit in time.
Had a great time at the distributed systems meetup in NYC, organized by Phil (@eatonphil). Excellent talks about how full-text search works, and yet-another-binary-json-format (YABJF) optimized for at-scale analytics processing.
