I suppose we'll be starting off 2026 with a contribution to an open source project. For this one, we'll be contributing to Clay. 😅

Did not expect a "I paid for the whole CPU; I'm gonna use the entire CPU" ahh moment before I started to compile the Qt framework. 💀 May God have mercy on my CPU's cores.

So annoying when they do an opt-out model, instead of an opt-in one. 🙃 🔗 www.linkedin.com/help/linkedi...

Hello, SourceHut. 🎉 Slowly starting to migrate away from GitHub for my personal projects, after Microsoft's decision to put GitHub in the CoreAI team. Time to see how SourceHut goes. 👀

📚 It's really time for me to spend and dedicate time to reading books. I just bought another set of books, and I don't want to see them picking up dust in my room. This year is our year for self-improvement! 💪

🎮 XCOM: Chimera Squad is a really good game. It's buggy in some parts, but it's fun nonetheless. I see it as a possible next step in the XCOM franchise, especially with the breach mechanic. 💖 I can't wait for the next entry in the franchise.

✨ Amidst the chaos of organizing an event, I love that I am able to get some time to code a personal project totally for my own personal needs. ⚒️ I'm building a personal budgeting tool that I am tailoring for myself. Let's see where this will lead to.
