Already Behind
I believe that 100% of the time, when I attempt to kick off a formal Sprint, I end up going way off the rails with distractions. That I will be purging and packing for August does not help, but at the same time it will likely be safer to return to the life of preemptive quarantine (who knows if I have been exposed, may as well attempt to minimize that possibility).
I do it to myself, also, because there is too much to know.
While the end of July 2021 was to be focused on getting some of my base code in order so I can begin to deploy ideas (again, before I move out of the current abode), I got off on tangents:
Forming the Casa Nunzia Foundation nonprofit in Nevada
Researching Schema.org integrations (I guess json-ld is the way to go, but bigger than that)
Creating jsonschema (not to be confused with schemaorg and json-ld) for some existing data structures, to enable non-python code..
More?
I’m also realizing just how useful old code and old architecture are not in this new age. There are a great many things to learn about, and then many other things to re-learn, and this can really throw off the mental calculations of a sprint plan, if you (or I) are thinking, “oh yes, I have written some code that does this,” only to realize that “wait, that code made some bad assumptions,” or maybe it’s just not good or sufficient.
So, another week, another sprint, this time with progress (to be fair, I did make some progress last week, which I mentioned in this episode…).
