I've 2 main things going right now. IRL I am working on my culinary skills. Cooking has always been my passion but doesn't pay bills hence I write code. Been mostly working basics, learning proper knife skills, focusing on doing recipes from scratch and experimenting a bit to gain intuition about how things like emulsification work.
On the code side I am building a logs database in Rust. I have previous experience building databases and in particular time series databases so most of the learning here is mostly about Rust which I have used before but not for this type of project. Also getting deeper into regular expressions, query languages (parsing/lexing/AST) and query optimisation than I have in the past.
Rust is growing on me more than it did in the past. I think a) because it's a much better language than it was when I used it previously and b) my experiences since I worked with it last have garnered me more respect for it's design decisions and type system.
Feeling like I am learning lots of stuff right now despite being trapped inside so that is good. :)
