day 28 of 50 days to 2026!!! I got to do a long study sesh with a few friends focusing on Calc and C++ which was fun. One of my friends ended up writing out a hilarious short story prompt for a program that we wrote to test all of our concepts. I also released bore today with a youtube video for it! It is a super fancy reverse proxy tunnel manager like ngrok but running entirely on my own infra! It is based around the open source frp software which is great on its own but a bit annoying to use in the oneshot command type way I was used to with ngrok. I wrapped the client cli in a nice gum interface and used nix to package it with a super fancy man page and shell completions! Bore also has a really cool dashboard at bore.dunkirk.sh which shows active tunnels and how much data has been transferred along them as well as a few other stats. It also has a really fancy 404 page which I'm quite proud of. Also working on my shell config I setup zmx which is a light weight tmux alternative that just keeps persistant sessions. It works quite well for my needs and I also set up ssh pooling so connections are next to instant now! I also did a bit of work on crush adding support for refreshing api keys whenever encountering 401 errors. I also whipped up a quick nix flake for it as well and got that working! www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ztWxaYOL7E

Day 18/50: • Made a projects page for my personal website - it still needs some work though. • Finally, FINALLY got Milkyway Pets working for macOS (I hope - I haven't been able to confirm whether it works) • Practiced clarinet for ~30-35 minutes. It's the first time I've played since I got sick, but I really want to make a habit of practicing most days. • Went out and practiced driving in the evening - I felt a lot more confident that last time (actually, less terrified might be more accurate) • Realised that I'd lost my 33-day Anki streak :noooovanish: After spending my last month with exams looming over my shoulder, it feels so weird to have all this time to myself. I still want to manage my time better than I have in the past, and avoid spending too much time on YT and Slack - hopefully these goals can be reminders for future me.

Day 12 of :50days:: • Posted the Windows and Linux builds for Milkyway Pets in #C09EZSEMB16| in order to get some feedback before I ship it. I got a lot of feedback and have learnt a lot from getting it into the hands of other people for the first time. Some of the issues I've noticed: a. Use a makefile to automate the build process. Automated testing is hard to make work in this context, but it would also be useful. b. Improve the config experience: Already partially there! The program now looks for a config file in the same directory as the program, and the program come with a template for the config file. I'm considering moving away from TOML to something simpler and more forgiving with user errors. c. Get rid of the Space-to-toggle-window-decorations thing. It's confusing, and being able to drag the window should be the default on most platforms. It's still needed on Wayland, since they can't set their own position. d. Better error handling: Currently errors either get ignored or are printed to the console. The windows users found this a bit confusing since they aren't running it from the terminal, so a graphical error window would be useful. e. Better installation guide: When I finally ship this project, it needs to have a good guide to installation and usage, since running the program requires you to find both your Hackatime API key and a :milkyway: Session ID. Somebody had an issue with getting their sessionid cookie, but I couldn't replicate it. A backup method would be useful just in case. • Studied for my Japanese exam tomorrow. I focused on listening, which I've been neglecting up until now. I'm not feeling the greatest about tomorrow, but I'll give it my best shot :salute: • Did a practice exam for my licence test tomorrow and got a cool clean calm and collected 100% LETS GOOOO!! 💥 💥 ‼️ I'm either gonna sit the exam tomorrow or the day after, depending on how I'm feeling.

Day 10/:50days:! I'm still feeling sick, but it's getting better and I think it'll be gone by Monday. I set pretty low expectations for myself today, but I did more than I thought I would so that feels good. • I wrote an about me page for my new personal website! I lowkey dread writing but once I got in the flow it was pretty fun! • I went through a past reading paper for Japanese. To get the the most points you basically need to be understanding everything and including it in your answer + analysing the implications or subtext. I can translate the text easily, but it's that deeper understanding and being able to use that information to answer the questions that I find harder. I don't think this counts as study, but I watched the film Happyend with subtitles and really enjoyed it. • Did practice tests for my licence exam - I'm feeling more and more confident that I'll be able to pass :) • Did a little work on my game.

Day 8 outta :50days:! Great googly moogly! • Fixed a bug in Milkyway Pets where tray menu entries weren't being removed when clicked. Worked a bit on my other game, Burning Rain. • Read ~30 pages of the comic 俺物語. I had to look up a lot of vocab, but I could get the general jist of a lot of sentences. • Did some practice tests for my licence exam. It turns out that there are new questions being introduced next month, so I'll probably sit the test after my Japanese exam next week. That'll be the first goal ticked off my list! • Made a post about my YSWS idea, If you have any thoughts or feedback on the concept let me know!
