My side-project-to-unwind is done. /r/belgium loved it. A friend of mine who lives in Antwerp thinks it is a good idea to print it out and put it in the mailbox of the mayor, so there's that.

The article I'm writing on selfdriving cars has gone through like five iterations and is starting to really come together. Not yet happy with it, partly because it's a difficult article, partly because I'm insecure about my writing.

In exactly one week I'll be in Berlin, and in one week and a few hours I'll be in Western Poland.

The job I mentioned two (two!?) months ago is finally taking off. I'll be getting a workstation laptop so I can work pretty much anywhere, probably will do one day at the office a week and work from home with that laptop.

That is beautiful.

Thanks! I loved how it turned out, especially some of the details. Like how the brown line 5 at Sport/Sportpaleis (center top) arcs away from the other lines to make room for the station icon, with the red 12 station symmetrically on the other side.

A. It's quite an interesting subway system.

B. The design is well done. I'd be proud of that if I were you.

C. Nobody gives a shit if your writing's bad. Only you do. Throw it away, and you become a good writer. Best of luck.
