Yes, happy new... er, what?



But hey, what's going on in everyone's life? I think it's been a while since I've shared any deets. Let's see... I'm married now. To an American, so I get to deal with immigration fun. I currently work at a machine learning shop. Mostly with Python, but recently my focus has been on a parsing project that is written in C++ (for performance reasons). On one hand, I love working with languages. On the other hand, it's a pretty messy codebase (I didn't start it!) and refactoring is currently limited because we got multiple tickets that all touch this component and nobody wants merge conflict hell. Also, I still don't like C++, even with the shiny new features. I also did have a successful interview with a big 4 company, which I'm very excited about going into the new year!

Congratulations!

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. I hope things go as smoothly as possible.

So, did you get the job ?

Oh, yes, I did!

It's great. Great culture, interesting projects, and hefty pay. I've relocated to Ontario for it, so it's been a busy few weeks.
