I've been posting on this site since 2016, when there was a huge rollout of layoffs at the company I was working at at the time. In fear of being laid off personal blog and side projects was at the top of the suggestions so off I I started looking at what I needed to do to start building my resume, having a went.

2023 was a very busy year for me and I started slowing down. About mid year I felt like I had a lot that I wanted to get out, but felt like I couldn't, because I did not have the time to blog, so I added thoughts on 7/22/2023 with this first thought.

2017 was the year of getting started, I was coming up on 5 years into my career, and layoffs were happening hard at the time. I remember fist landing 5 years before and being told in the companies long history they have never laid off engineers, it was a very safe place to be. This was a wake up call that it might all turn around and I would take nothing with me. Blogging became my way to document things I was learning, it was making be better at communicating, and giving me a reason to take a deeper dive into interesting topics.

2016 was the year that I created my github account, and really got serious about career switching from Mechanical Engineering to Software Engineering. All of my 2016 posts are back-dated github stars.
