Weeknotes April 7 2025

Work

• Continuation of the general chaos from the last few weeks.
• Implemented some API stuff with Klaviyo and our frontend which may not be needed now? Status unclear
• Starting to look into generating Tailwind config from a static design (e.g. Figma) as part of an initiative at work to find ways to speed up our development cycle. Currently fleshing out a couple of test cases, and the plan is to see which model produces the most accurate/desirable output

Learning

• Trying to learn about NextJS Server Actions and getting more and more confused the more I read
• Learning more about Hotwire/Turbo for a side project in Rails

Personal

• Generally feeling completely drained, but I think the post-diagnosis burnout is finally wearing off. Nothing I do seems to refill my cup though, even activities I normally find very fulfilling.
• Finally finished that scarf I was working on (that I incorrectly estimated I would finish, like, 3 weeks ago). Have now started a matching beanie following this pattern
• Currently reading Unmasking Autism by Devon Price

Links of the Week

• Don't Ask To Ask
• The Surprising Truth About Pixels and Accessibility by Josh Comeau
