Playing like a kid again & Taking learning seriously

I published a new blog post yesterday: Playing like a kid again. It's about how we can rediscover our joy in certain activities by letting go of rigid assumptions and expectations.

And, while writing this, I realized that I forgot to send an email about last month's post! It's called Taking learning seriously:

Like many programmers, I’ve always enjoyed learning new things. But over the past year, I’ve started taking learning seriously in a way that I never did before — at least outside of a formal academic setting.

[...]

Over time, I’ve landed on a few small practices that work well for me. They’re not groundbreaking, but in combination they’ve made a pretty big difference.

Since the last update, I've also published a bunch of TIL (today I learned) posts:

  • PyScript - 2024-07-01
  • Box blur - 2024-06-30
  • Curvature combs - 2024-05-23
  • JAX - 2024-05-22
  • Rye and Poetry - 2024-05-16
  • Corner plot - 2024-05-10

✌️,

Pat
