It helps keep me accountable for my actions and also keeps me from deviating from them unnecessarily. + +I've noticed that since I graduated college with my Bachelors, I have become incredibly burnt out and unmotivated to work on the projects that I was passionate about in the past. Some research on my projects and commit history would reflect that. I keep coming up with ways about how my current projects could be improved or new projects that have been construing in my mind, then sit at a computer and stare into the code only to find myself shut down. I keep telling myself I can be more dedicated to those projects I am passionate about in my mind, but my brain cannot process it once I try to crank it out into a file. + +Instead of letting the sad undertone of that anecdote consume me, I am making a list of projects in this blog post that I want to start and/or finish this summer now that my class ended. This will help me be accountable for the things I know I want to work on deep down, and show responsibility to get those things done and how I've grown in the end. + +With that said, here are the projects I want to work on this summer: + +* An Automatic, Init-system Agnostic, Mounting Daemon (new project) + * All command-line based, control daemon over a TCP port or maybe a file inside `/proc` + * Mainly as a ploy to learn how daemons work and how to control them, especially OpenRC. + * Would like to program in Go +* A command-line interface for the XDG Trash System (new project) + * Add, view or remove files from the trash on the disk + * Could be used as an alias to `rm` for clumsy people + * Thinking using Rust or something niche like Nim or Zig +* Improve [ServerCraft](/projects/servercraft) + * Make the window resizable and have UI react accordingly + * Find a better system for the "Console" + * Add version dropdown + +Hopefully doing this will help me become more motivated. I will give a report on my progress toward the end of the summer. diff --git a/layouts/blog/single.html b/layouts/blog/single.html index 807e2bb..668fd65 100644 --- a/layouts/blog/single.html +++ b/layouts/blog/single.html @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ {{ partial "head.html" . }}
