After the holidays: work

[mtbc]

At work, I've been trying to finish off a non-trivial task that I started last month. There are plenty of aspects to get right: I am trying to improve the performance of a part of our code that comes in different flavors, is called in different ways, and can utilize various constituents. Generative AI assistance has been helping me along. Perhaps I have finally got it all to a good state, we will see what the coming week brings. I start next week by filling things out for our annual performance review cycle. I look forward to working on my next task which is a smaller, more usual one. I have been putting some extra time into the meatier task because it's important and has already lingered plenty; it will be a relief to finally tie a bow around it, here's hoping.
