Seeing the Forest through the trees
Today I accepted an offer from ChainSafe to work on Forest, the Rust implementation of Filecoin. I start on February 1st, and I'm very excited to get to work. So excited, actually, I'm working on a PR a week ahead of time, mostly because I'm actually really interested in it. It'd be something I'd contribute to even if I wasn't paid to work on it full-time.

Seeing the Forest through the trees
After that job, I had enough money to survive for a few months as long as we lived frugally, so I decided to make sure I understood Rust really well. Really get a solid feel for borrowing, and how traits work. Put tools in the toolbox; Futures, Streams, Reference counters, Mutexes, Messaging Channels, Thread Pools, Deques, B-Trees, etc. And the result of those efforts is Fuzzr, and it could be something really cool. I'll keep working on it, too. There may even be opportunity for convergence, since it's basically a graphical frontend for storing things in IPFS, and Filecoin basically just commoditizes IPFS storage with a blockchain.
