Paternity Leave: Month 2

Highlights

  • I’m finding it surprisingly difficult not to work.
  • Sleep is getting a little better.
  • I used Nix to create a slick and reusable fuzz testing workflow.

Enjoy family time

  • Result: Spent lots of time with my wife and our newborn son and had frequent visits with friends and family.
  • Grade: A
