September 2024

We moved! Near the end of this month, we packed up and left Philadelphia, PA, returning to Richmond, VA. I’ll miss Philly, but it’s really great to be back — and really great to be able to pop down to the Mobius office to get stuff done.

This was definitely my big project for the month, so other than work for Mobius, not a lot got done otherwise.

Philly Tech Calendar crossed a fun milestone — the email newsletter now has 100 subscribers!

Speaking of Tech Calendars, I made one for Richmond! On the last day of this month, Sujith Paul in the RVA Dev Slack encouraged me to make a version of PTC for RVA, so I did that. Check out the RVA Tech Calendar.
