Worked Whole Day, Deployed New Version of Vegpal

5:31 AM (of Friday, June 17th 2022)

Today is Thursday, June 16th 2022 and it was a very productive day today. I woke up pretty early I think at around 4 or 5 AM. From morning until night time I basically just worked the entire day which is pretty insane. I started with working on some items for Vegpal and doing some testing, and then deploying that build so the interns could test it.

After I finished that, it was around 10 AM, and I was getting kinda hungry, so I went out to Wal-Mart to buy some quick snacks. The past few days I've just been eating some Clif bars, 6 a day, which is 1500 calories a day, and I've been steadily losing weight like that. I don't recommend this extremely odd and possibly unhealthy thing to do, but yeah, I think for me this is better than fasting because I can at least eat some food and not starve. I only ate 6 Clif bars only today and a bag of Vegan Robb's chips, and I lost weight again today. I also did 100 knuckle up push ups though and some arm curls with a 35 pound weight.

After that, when I got back home and snacked a little, I got into a stand up meeting with the Interns again and we talked about what we were going to do for the day. I wrote up a comprehensive post of the updates that were completed today and asked them to test it. They tested it a little bit, found some bugs, and then I realized the correct build wasn't deployed on TestFlight for them to test. I quickly tried to compile and deploy the correct version out on TestFlight, which took me over an hour to do, yeah, and then asked them to test it again.

At around 2 PM Lia asked me to join her in a meeting, and she basically told me to get on a call with the Interns so we can test it together. I invite them to a 3 PM meeting but no one showed up, except Lia, and we chat there for a bit about the business and the Interns testing and all that. So I think the Interns were away from keyboard at that time, and they responded they were back at around 3:30 PM, so I invited them to a meeting at 4 PM just so we can test these items together real quick and make sure it's all good. We tested it, and everything seemed to work, we did find some bugs, but we'll be fixing that on the next release instead of now.

Then it took me several more hours to compile the production build and send them out for review, and I also did a bunch of similar and related work as well, lots of testing and things between each step. Somehow the new app versions were reviewed and approved rather quickly, with the app store app being approved in just around 30 minutes. The Android version was approved in under 2 hours, but I was watching some Future Diary anime while waiting.

Anyway I ended up releasing these builds tonight, and also releasing all the other updates. So that's basically all I did the whole day today.

It is quite surprising that so much time has passed and it seems like I didn't even do much, but I did things the whole day.

This was a fun day. I finished the Future Diary anime and I loved the ending. I don't recall watching it to the end before, I probably watched it for the first time in 2018 and got to the last episode but just didn't recall it since I was distracted playing GTA V while watching anime during that time period. Like I did know certain things happened, but I had no idea of the whole scope of the story. I loved the ending. It's probably one of the more realistic and better anime endings I've seen. I really enjoyed the story of Future Diary as well, especially the romance. I don't think I've seen better romance in any other anime.

Anyway that was my day today.
