Now

A Now page is someplace where you list what you are doing with your life right now. I came across this when reading jon.bo, who got the idea from nownownow.com/about.

Work

IndiePaper - The Future of Publishing.

  • Currently building IndiePaper as a IndieHacker.

Learning

Learning is almost always fun outside school. When there isn’t anyone looking over your shoulder insisting you learn about inverse trignometric functions, you tend to hate learning.

Done

  • Skill : Learn to solve the Rubiks Cube blind - I have always been into cubing, but learning to solve it blind is like the ultimate challenge in memorization, and would make a cool party trick.

    • I successfully solved the cube blindfolded even though I lost the bet to solve it in 5 mins. The speed can be improved with practice.
  • Code: TDD Phoenix - I have always found the idea of TDD fascinating. I’m currently learning TDD with Elixir Phoenix from the awesome free resource at TDD Phoenix

    • Learnt that writing Integration tests has the best ROI in all types of testing. So now I am practicing TDD with Integration Tests.

Reading

For the love of Reading.

  • Leonardo Da Vinci, The Biography by Walter Isaacson - It would be nice to figure out how the greatest inventor of Da Vinci figured out the stuff he did.
