Kevin Fenzi: DC move, riscv, Hey Hi (AI) and more for early February 2025
I realized I had some PTO (Paid time off, basically what used to be called 'vacation') that I needed to use before it disappeared, so I have planned a number of vacation days in the coming month. Including 2 in this last week. :)
I'll also point to an old post of mine about what I personally think about vacations/pto when you are working in a community: time off when you are paid to work in a community
The biggest things for me about this isn't completely disconnecting or ignoring everything, in fact most days I get up at the same time (cats have to be fed!) and sit at my laptop like I usually do, but it's that I don't have to attend meetings, and I can do things I fully enjoy. Sometimes thats still working in the community, but sometimes its like what I did on friday: Look into a battery backup for house and tradeoffs/ideas around that. In the end I decided not to do anything right now, but I had fun learning about it.
