About three weeks in, I'm seeing the results of shedding anticipatory grief.
* I'm sleeping.
* I don't have daily headaches.
* I can focus.
* I'm more present.
* Phone calls don't make me anxious. There's no, "oh boy, what's going on now..." feeling.
I'm reflecting on how taking care of my dad over the last 4 years affected my mental health.

Not for taking care of him but how I responded to the stress.

i believe there's such a thing as objectively high quality code.
for teams, i think objective code quality less important than everyone agreeing about what they think is high quality code.
