Keyboard Driven VSCode
Throw that mouse Away its time to setup some keyboard shortcuts.
These sortcuts were the baseline for switching from tmux/vim to vscode. Most folks posts I was able to find gave great tips on replacing vim, but very few have focused on the hackability of tmux. tmux allows me to rapidly fire up a workspace, create new windows and splits. Then When I switch tasks I can leave that workspace open and and jump right back in later exactly where I left off. There is nothing quite like it. The shortcuts listed here make the transition a bit better. The worst thing I found when using vscode at first was no way to switch between the terminal and editor without the mouse. This first set of keybindings solve that issue.

Realistic Git Workflow
My git [1] workflow based on real life. Its not always clean and simple.
sometimes things get messy
The Clean Path # [2]
[3]
pull 👉 branch 👉 format 👉 work👉 add 👉 commit 👉 pull 👉 rebase 👉 push
Pull # [4]
As complicated as that seems it is pretty straight forward. When you sit down to work the first thing you do is to pull down the teams latest working “develop” branch from git.
git checkout develop
git pull
Branch # [5]
Next create a new branch with a name that will remind you of what you are working on. For your own sanity choose something descriptive. It is easy to get too many similar branches going and forget which branch is which.
git checkout -b ingest_product_id_table
Format # [6]
If you know which files in existance that you will be editing before you start work it is a good idea to format them in a commit early on to keep your working commits separate from formatting. This will make it easier for reviewers to distinguish from your changes and formatting fixes.

I have been playing with the netlify cms for a while now, and it has been a decent experience, but I really struggle configuring it. Forestry is so simple to setup.

Configuration is Simple # [2]
Forestry.io has this amazing feature to create create based on existing document 🤯. This is great because it sets up the .yml config for me without error. And If I really want to come back later to customize it more I have that option, too.

It's not all about winning
This is my story into data science.
The Journey Begins # [1]
I am addicted to the process of learning and improving my skills nearly to a fault. The reason I say nearly is because my addiction is fueled with results. I crave the output of my work enhance the work of others. I jump with joy as I see users gain insights they could have never imagined before. My mouth starts watering as I see their boring repetitive data mining activites be completed in a matter of seconds, opening up their mind to focus on their expertise. The day I stop learning will be the day that I start looking for another career path.
It’s not all about winning.

This happened to me in 2014. I have a mechanical engineering degree and had a really good position at the time. I owned full engineering control of a small subset of engine components. The problem was that Everything is so proprietary and hardly documented the process of learning did not click with me. I felt like I had learned a lot about the ...

This is a follow up to my previous post 2018-retrospective [1]
professional # [2]
This year I will become more productive, by intensionally working on a well thought out plan, learning the right technologies, and leave behind a positive legacy.
Productivity # [3]
Last year I was able to make some great strides in my productivity and focus. This year I want to be able to bring it up a notch. Intentionality plays a big part in this. Taking some time to sit down and think about the tasks you realistically want to complete for the day, then focusing on those tasks one at a time.
I started off the year last year using the pomodoro system to focus on one task and one task only for 25 minutes at a time. This worked really well for me but I quickly fell off of the train and fell into my old trap of reacting to the loudest customer over the items I put intensionally on my todo lis...

2018 Retrospective
2018 was a year of many ups and downs, and learning to deal with a whole new
set of problems professionally and at home. In 2018 I logged in to my first
Linux system, setup my own webserver, data pipelines, database. I learned to
use react and d3. Stepped up my python, javascript, and sql.
At home the doctor appointments keep piling in. While I am learning to deal
with it all there were several times throughout the year that I was very
overwhelmed with everything and broke down.
Here are the goals I had listed out for 2018 and how I faired at completing
them.
Positivity # [1]

- Continue “Favorite Things” with family at dinner time
- Take 2 10min breaks per day clear the mind

I can say that the kids are fully on board with favorite things and love to
tell everyone about how their day went. This is a time that they are very
positive and generally give praise to another family member for helping them
through their day.

Do More of What Brings You Joy
Today I want to take some time to talk about the things that make me happy in my work environment. This is completely free-flow off the cuff, but are things that I do that make me happy, not having them would definitely be a deal breaker for me .
Attitude # [1]
A positive work atmosphere goes a long ways. We all have enough negativity going on in our lives that is out of our control accepting any negativity in the workplace is a no go for me. There was a point in which I was suffering a lot of negativity at work. This began to trickle into every part of life, and it became hard to see positivity anywhere. My wife not only noticed this, but put a polite request in for change. It was definitely a low point and she could tell tell that my work life was not helping anything.
