End of Week Update - 008 By A.A.Lopez     You know, I tend to start each of these EoW updates with "Oh, I'm so tired," or "That was a long week." Just things to those effects, but seriously, I feel like this past week was much too much. Not going to get too much into it cause a lot of it deals with NDA stuff, but gods, I need a way off the rollercoaster.     But let's not focus too much on the week and focus on the accomplishments that happened!     Biggest thing, had my first stream this past Friday, as well as a second one on Saturday. You can see that it resulted in two art pieces, "pieces", they were sketches, and the stream got away from me a bit. Yet, I think I learned a lot from my time doing it. From how to use OBS to trying to be a good host. Was I excellent? No. Did I have a lot of viewers? No. Was it fun and worth leaning into and learning? Yes. So I think I will continue on this path for just a bit longer.     Of course, I should also ...

 End of Week Update - 007 By A.A. Lopez     I don't know if this week was a lot or if the adrenaline from last week is finally crashing. Oh, right forgot to mention: my car got broken into and almost stolen, that was fun. Thankfully, all that was taken was a bag full of camping supplies, and the only damage was to the car door handle and the ignition switch (insurance covered it all). But after that this past week has been a total blur.     Though I can say for certainty that I did accomplish a lot  of the things I set out to do this week. So maybe the tiredness is from trying to do everything all at once. Well, let's actually get into it. Accomplishments: Completed and Delivered the GUI toolset Completed the presentation with glowing marks and ready to present next week Updated the name of my chrome extensions to UNL and ACP (Updated Notes Log and Airtable CSV Parser) CC Tool... This one had some alterations so it's now a Pathway maker, but I did get the f...

End of Week Update - 006 By A.A. Lopez     This is the actual EoW update for this week. Gods, I did a lot this week, and yet I did basically nothing at the same time. Or at least that's how it always feels when it comes to Sundays, especially if it's 3 in the afternoon and the only thing you've seen outside your apartment is the local 7-11 for an apple and some Monster.     But in all honesty, I did do quite a bit. Heck, looking at just my posts today, I worked on nearly all of my would-be nice list. And while I don't have it listed, I also have the GUI done for the coworker's tool. Actually, let's break down what happened this week. Tool GUI     For the coworker's toolset, I went ahead and created a PyQt5 GUI that uses his JavaScript, allowing for a modular design and updates. Even did some UI design work, focusing on the color schemes and design. Ended up using Adobe XD as a playground for designing instead of using Lucid this time.     Honestly...

 No update, just making this to keep the numbering convention consistent between EoW and SoW updates.

 End of Week Update - 004 By A.A. Lopez      This week has a bit of ups and downs, but feel like it was mostly positive, and it's ending on the start of my vacation for the week. Also the fact I got a lot more out than I originally thought I might, and looking at using new tools.      Let's take a look: Monday I cancelled the meeting on Monday, I didn't have any updates on it Did do some work on the OCR tool, but it's only catching items with @ symbols And did some minor work on Project://JUNO, actually got a few UI mockups built up for the Seeker and Matchmaker home screens Tuesday I got a lot more documentation of the Logger extension done, noted by that full article I put out Still lacking on R.v.1.0 Also worked on the production planner as noted in the Journal entry  Wednesday Didn't show off R.v1.0 either Left for home right after being in the office, so had to drive from 5pm to 10:30pm Thursday Just did my day job and relaxed afterwards Frid...

 End of the Week Update - 003 by A.A. Lopez      Since apparently we’re at war because we have a dumbass president it doesn’t really feel like a good time to write out what’s going on with an end of the week update, but gods damn it I need some semblance of normalcy and this is going to be it. I don’t give a flying fuck that this is only a few weeks old of a blog, but it’s the only consistent thing I have going on that isn’t work.      Anyways, you can tell how my mood is, so I’ll just get on with what’s happened this week: Monday Finished the Pseudo-code, the flowchart, and the base logic for the chrome extension tool that a coworker wanted done. It’s coming out nicely. Posted the Affirmation Station audio to r/PillowTalkAudio, 2.4k views, 4 upvotes, and about 35 listens, so pretty good for a first time. Tuesday Have the extension tool up and running, at least a beta version that I was able to show off to a few folks on Wednesday Uploa...

 End of Week Update - 002 By A.A. Lopez     This past week had a lot of stuff going on. Some of which I don't think I'm allowed to share here, so I'm gonna be brief on my updates, then literally right after this I'm gonna post the SoW Update. Monday Caps Cleaner Devlog - Eff yes! Did that and showcased the new materials. Though I wasn't able to add in any media regarding the code or anything like that, but still! Got it done. IMDb Scraper Tool - Finished and working item in the code of the Caps Cleaner Reduced version. Will be integrating it soon with the main version soon. Tuesday / Wednesday This is where a lot o' shit went down this past week. Had to move showcasing the Caps Cleaner to the next (this week). Cleaned my apartment, actually a huge win, go me! Came up with a new idea for work that might be very helpful, already talked to 2 folks about it, now just need to talk to 2 more. Thursday Technically speaking I did relax... after trying to figure out what...

 End of Week Update - 001 By A.A. Lopez      Not a great week for the start of something new I’ll admit. But not going to beat myself up about it, this was and is an experiment to keep me accountable and on top of projects that I have been wanting to do for a long time. And some of the things I wanted to do I did, just did not notate them here like I wanted to, and others… well, we’re here.      Let’s get started on the End of Week Update:     Monday Start of Week Update Posts - Complete Review OST Footage - Did not do because I could not get myself to actually record or watch anything after work Learn OBS features - Attempted but my head was in a fog from a mix of malaise and a minor cold Tuesday Work on Project://JUNO wireframe - Did come up with a few diagrams in my head, but did not commit any to pen and paper or to digital notes. Most likely will forget some if not all the ideas Send off business cards for Wedding officiant busines...
