Last night, Q got sick and spent the entire night vomiting and having diarrhea. I have no idea what they ate that caused it. When I got up in the morning, I decided to take the day off and stay home to rest, so I rode my bike to work by myself this morning. I left a little late, but fortunately, I hit green lights all the way and managed to clock in before 8:30.

At lunchtime, Q was still at the rental apartment and hadn’t eaten anything, but I had already ordered takeout. After thinking it over, I decided to take it back and have lunch with Q, and I also packed a serving of delicious plain rice porridge from the rice noodle roll shop near the subway station. Come to think of it, this was the first time I had returned to the rental apartment at lunchtime in the half month since I started working at the new company. This little electric scooter isn’t very durable and can’t handle many round trips, so I’ll have to charge it again tonight.

I was thinking that I need to find an opportunity to go back to Zhongshan and bring over that Hello electric scooter. It can run for a long time on a full charge, and then I’ll be able to come back and sleep more often during my lunch break. But I still haven’t figured out how to get it here. The delivery fee with Huolala would be too expensive, while riding it here directly would probably require two full charges. I haven’t planned the riding route yet, so I’ll see how it goes when the time comes.

I ran into a very common prioritization issue at work today. I hadn’t finished my first task after joining the company when a new assignment came along, and a colleague criticized me for it. I felt that what they said wasn’t unreasonable; perhaps I still haven’t gotten used to the pace of work at a private company. So I started moving the projects forward in parallel and tried to get that React Native project running, but unfortunately, I got stuck on the Android Studio configuration and still hadn’t gotten it working by the end of the day. I’ll continue working on it tomorrow.

Another pleasant surprise was discovering that the official next.js repository had actually open-sourced the website code for its docs. This means that the next.js Chinese documentation I’ve been thinking about for a long time can finally be put on the agenda, even though it isn’t completely identical to next.js.
