Planning next year in my case is not a simple task.
It's a weird feeling when you complete the work but the final effect is not as good as you'd expect it to be. I've completed the next great feature in the app but, to my surprise, it exposes the lack of perfection of the product as a whole.
We often tend to forget that something pretty easy to our minds may not be that obvious if we try to describe steps to do something.
I like watching Formula 1. One of the principal concepts of the qualifying session, the one that determines the order on the grid during race start, is the way drivers manage tire condition and energy. They typically alternate one push lap and one cool-down lap. This means on one hand, that many laps are the preparation ones, but when it comes to fighting for the best result they are well prepared.
I decided to stop the second iteration of sewing after 1750 lines...
I'm sewing again. This time I decided to pick a very general picture of the butterfly to focus on gathering more feelings and calibration data comparing the outcome of the generated image to the real one.
I've done it!
The good news is that finally this week I finished all the changes I planned after the initial tests of Beta...
Another round of progressing towards beta of the Strings project ended with mediocre success.
It went smoother than I expected.
Finally, I was able to return to my secret project Dots, which in fact should be renamed to my secret project Strings. I received new, updated frames from my teammate and that was a kinda motivational boost to start fixing issues after the first version of the algorithm was released.
I finally finished the first phase of my secret project `Dots`, btw. recently renamed to `Strings`. So the first phase of my secret project `Strings` is finally over and the other part of our project team can now focus on their part.
It was a good week. It was such a good week, that I believe I bet my previous record and spent more than 3 times longer than I should spend on projects every week.
Finally, I am back on the track! The long-lasting break is over, my brain is already operating on the expected level of focus and I made it this week - the second iteration of the algorithm for secret project Dots is done. It works better & faster! 💪
We came to the weird case when nothing special can be written here...
The big breakthrough happened in the Dots project this week, thanks to one right question that was asked, and the answer was delivered. I was the one to ask the question, Google was the one to deliver the answer.
These weeks are probably the toughest since the beginning of the project...
The last weeks are very theoretical for me. I'd say that they are even too theoretical which sometimes is pretty exhausting, even for a person like me, an uncontrolled learner.
