Slow & Steady

Dodging "Blue Monday"


Listen Later

The third Monday of January may be a downer, but not for Benedikt and Benedicte!

  • Blue Monday
  • The Great Gatsby with Queen Raae - REACT 168
  • Benedikt: Tree data structure thread
  • Smashing Magazine

Benedikt is bathing in artificial light, exercising, and staying focused thanks to the new frontend developer, Leo, at Userlist. These factors, combined with a good year and small raise, have him beating the usual winter blues. Last week they helped a customer through a spam attack and he completed more integration work. Benedikt has enjoyed talking through the code with another developer. 

Benedicte, feeling confused about progress last week, is nonetheless keeping the engine alive. Schools are closing and childcare has been tricky but she had glimpses of "supermom". She completed her first non-hourly contract, started a draft for her Smashing Magazine article, kept up with yoga, and will even sneak in a short treehouse cabin trip this week. Like Benedikt, she has also enjoyed discussing code at a higher level with Ola as he comes up to speed.
