Update for the week ending on Friday, Jul 17, 2020

TinyPilot

Conducted two customer interviews
- Reached out to 5-6 other local IT shops who didn’t respond
Fixed a bug where holding down a modifier key (e.g., Ctrl or Shift) would be treated like sending the key repeatedly
Fired the logo designer I hired last week
- They submitted sketches that were much worse than the samples they sent me from their portfolio when I was interviewing.
- I reverse image searched the samples and realized that they were plagiarized
Hired a new logo designer and reviewed their concept sketches
Captured updated screenshots and live clips
Upgraded uStreamer dependency to v1.1.9
Fixed a bug in ansible-role-ustreamer that caused it to build corrupted binaries during version upgrades.
Published assembly instructions

Discovered that one of the merchants I’ve been promoting has been ripping me off
- I ended up emailing the CEO demanding payment, so we’ll see how that goes.
- Dropped the merchant from the newsletter and buried any pages mentioning them on the website so that you have to search for them specifically
Refreshed Amazon affiliate links to make sure I was linking to related products that are still available and for sale
Fixed some broken/missing internal links

This is still relegated to hobby project, but I’m trying to get it to the point where it automates my personal rebalancing strategy.

Added support for multi-account portfolios
- Before
- After
- Still needs a bit of work. I’d like to get to the point where I can have per-account options
  - e.g., never sell any holdings in this account - only add investments
Got import from CSV working, just need to polish the UI

Checked in on my Enterprise customer
- Looks like they’re switching to pay-as-you go after this week since they completed their bulk parsing.

In an effort to help Gridsome improve dev velocity, I’ve been volunteering a few hours a week to help manage their documentation.
