Hey, just wanted to mention I’m basically doing okay. Working as a contractor for the ADCRR, the organization that runs Arizona’s prison system. That’s a little weird.

I’m not writing code. I mean—I am writing code, but not for work.

Work is commissary stuff: process inmate orders, make sure they get those orders. I finally get to do customer service again. The customers are nice, and so are the coworkers.

Hobby code is mostly cycling through Ruby, Lisp-like languages, and Odin. I like Odin’s approach to array and SOA programming. Main educational reading is Understanding the Odin Programming Language.

Decided I don’t care about AI or enterprise tech in general at the moment. That could always change. For now I just don’t find them interesting, and can’t pretend that I do. I like small tools that reliably fix problems and improve workflows in predictable ways.
