Already midway February
=======================

Already midway February, time surely flies!

Last year I declared February is my personal Pareto Month [1]. Which
means that it is time to pick that up again.

So many things to do, it wouldn't indeed hurt to do some
retrospective on "focusing on the vital few and dropping a big chunk
of the rest".

I haven't been on IRC for ages, I think the last time was about
November last year, something that brings the risk of loosing the
connection with the outside world.

The list of people I follow on the Fediverse could use some cleaning
up, just like the list of RSS feeds I follow. Funny how these things
seems to be growing on their own, a kind of kipple that slowly but
surely takes over your life.

A few weeks ago I started with translating the GNU Emacs Lisp Intro
("A simple introduction to Emacs Lisp programming"), which is quite
a time consuming task for the coming period, there will be less time
for other things.

solderpunk announced OFFLFIRSOCH 2026 [2]. Last year I didn't
participate, so I am thinking about doing that this year.

The weather, gray and cold wind, at least isn't very inviting for
outside activity, so that helps :)
