Did I complete them all? No, but honestly it’s not a big deal.
Continue to contribute to open source: Mission accomplished 🚀. I continued to be a collaborator on react-slingshot and contributed some work there this year, fielded some issues etc.
Read everything in my Pocket: This just didn’t happen. In fact shortly after writing my 2018 resolutions, I stopped reading Pocket completely. It had nothing to do with the product, just got busy and when you add to Pocket, it’s like it’s just sent up in the ether.
Having said that, I highly recommend this tool for offline reading. I’m gonna try and catch up on some reading while I head away to a chalet for a few days.
Read Functional-Light JavaScript: I got through about a third of it, and well, no excuses 🙃. Will have to finish this this year I guess 😉
It’s fun making resolutions, but honestly, I did not lose any sleep over not completing some of these. Aside from resolutions, it was a busy year in work land and in the fall I decided to move on to an amazing role at Autodesk on the Shotgun team.
- Still alive and kicking - Solid contributions to OSS - Landed an awesome gig at @autodesk working on the @shotgunsoftware team https://t.co/jMpiZ7Vdio
Prior to starting work, I attended a week long conference with the whole team. We’re distributed, so they try to have these team conferences once or every two years. As a brand new employee who hadn’t even started work yet, it was amazing to meet, wine/dine with my future co-workers and work on ways to improve the product. I’ve been loving it since day 1. Great work/life balance and all the good things you look for in a job. 💯
Aside from the new gig, I'm about to pass 12000 followers on dev.to! 🔥
So as we close off 2018, I just want to say thanks to the dev.to core team and the community. You're all great.
