Snowflake largely dominates my Wednesday. It’s a new piece of tech I’ve not used, or even heard of until a few months ago, and now for the last couple of weeks I’ve been staring at it, I’ve been reading its documentation, and I’ve been implementing things in it.

Not sure if it fits my job description, but as a tech lead you do what’s needed for the project, and you might not be the best person for it, but if you are available and it becomes a priority, then you move things forward and make it happen.

Explosions continue as part of the outdoor swimming pool renovations, there’s the odd message from a neighbour who hasn’t heard about the renovations and wonders if they should be worried about the sirens and the earth shaking.

A reassuring message from another neighbour says that it’s just because the apartment buildings here are built on top of the same bedrock and thus the feeling of a tiny earthquake every now and then.

The outdoor swimming pools won’t be opened most likely this coming summer I’m told, but the year after that. I’m still excited and looking forward to it.
