    My focus is on psychology and backend (+devops) technologies right now.

    Psychology: attachment styles, soft skills, how to connect better to other people

    Backend + Devops: Asp.net Core, Go, Github CI/CD, Docker

    Live looping. I've played in cover bands for 20 years, but haven't done much solo gigging in a long time. I also have been pretty technophobic as a musician.

    Well, I got a full featured looper and drum machine and a bunch of other equipment and I'm trying to adapt my cover band repertoire into a solo one-man-band kind of thing. It's going well and I'm actually really inspired.

    I’m trying to learn statistics. I’m up to implementing regressions in python using sci-kit learn.

    I was playing around with Bayesian modelling last night with https://bambinos.github.io/bambi/ But I’m not really sure how to interpret the outputs.

    Always open to reading about learning resources/books/videos/courses from others.
