This week note covers the weeks of 9th–22nd March.
Life#
I skipped writing the week note last week because I got too lazy after being caught up in things I’ve been doing. So I’m writing this one to cover both weeks. Life has been hectic but good. All the usual activities continue, with some new things added.
I went for a short run last week after a gap of almost 10 months. It was only 2km but it felt great to get started again. My stamina is gone completely, and I feel like I’m starting from scratch. Regardless, I’m happy to be in right mindset and health to be able to start running again.
After some hesitation, I bought an entry in the Jatre run for a 5km race. I signed up for a Garmin coaching plan to prepare. Hopefully it’ll not be too much for me. Later in the year, I want to start going for 10km races again.
We had some holidays last week on occasion of Ugadi and Eid. A really wanted to go to a mall (I guess A’s school taught about malls), so we went to a nearby one on Ugadi. It was fun to see A running around excited.
Weird weather all around last week. We had a sudden cold day and hailstorm between the usual hot summer days. I heard some parts of the country experienced unexpected dust storms. This upsets me a lot.
Current daily average steps per month: 10106
Personal Projects#
I finally got long stretches of time to start working on my new project: writing a Co to JavaScript compiler. I got a rudimentary compiler working for a subset of Co features. Before writing the compiler, I actually reverse-engineered the Co interpreter and wrote a spec and tests so that I can make sure that the compiler works exactly same as the interpreter.
My friend Steven had Claude code implement an interpreter in Go from the spec and tests only. It took Claude only 15 minutes to do that! Well, I do my personal projects for my learning and practice, so I’m not going use LLMs to do them, but it’s amazing (and terrifying) to see what they can do now.
IndieWebClub Bangalore#
After a gap of two months, I went to an IWCB meetup yesterday. It was a tech session where all attendants co-worked on their websites. The turnout was great, we almost ran out of seats. I expect a large digest in the upcoming newsletter. I met many interesting folks working on various fun stuff. If you are interested in making your own website and/or blogging, I definitely recommend you attend one of these meetups.
Personally, I worked on adding Fediverse support for the IWCB website using Bridgy Fed. It sort of works. But all blogroll posts are not showing up in the account somehow. I need to debug this.
Watching#
I paused watching everything, and wife and I started on One Piece on Netflix. Over the two weeks, we rewatched the season one, and just now we got started with the second season. It is amazing and everyone should watch it.
Interesting Internet Links#
