I&#8217;m going to reset for next week and pick some tech refresher work based on things I&#8217;ve been doing on the home front rather than jobs I&#8217;m looking at. Patience is clearly called for and I&#8217;d much rather find a job where everyone if comfortable with my skills and abilities and we can dive into challenges with confidence rather than something where there&#8217;s any doubt on either side&#8230;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not sure where I&#8217;ll shift to at the moment. Probably something related to the VR coding I had been working on, but that covers a lot of ground as I was looking to have a RESTful web back end for that work so lots of possibilities. I still may look at some AWS or Azure coding as those are both possibilities for the back-end and while my web hosting is already paid for and supports PHP that isn&#8217;t really a very scalable environment and PHP isn&#8217;t my favorite language. Got to reflect a bit over the weekend and make some decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I may even go back to the OpenGL coding I was playing with a few weeks ago. OpenGL is a good tool for handling the sort of 3D rendering that a flat screen view of the things I was trying to do in VR would work on. Getting back to that environment also has potential for jobs that could be interesting so might be a win-win. Have to think a bit&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I do think I&#8217;m going to take a high level look at Azure to see what the Microsoft cloud offers. Probably also worth some practice with C# language integrated query as it offers interesting capabilities akin to Java 9 streams. Lots to play with, lots to learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just ordered a couple of Azure books from Amazon. One high level and the other also covers ASP.NET Core with Azure. Should be interesting reading.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Definitely ended last week feeling a bit frustrated.
