[22-02-2026] - Weekly Review

Review

I started to work on upgrading Journeys web API from net 4.8 to net 9. The upgrade was extremely confusing, as each TMC instance is unique in it's own right, so figuring out the Dependency Inversions, Authentication, Authorisation and all that stuff was a manual process.

In the end, the PR was made, and the base net 9 project is underway. Apparently, this API is the one that consumes the most resources, so upgrading this (alongside the other 5) could yield a saving of 110k whole british pounds.

On another note, Ramadan has officially started on the night of <2026-02-17 Tue>. It's imperative I take more screen breaks as my eyesight is getting worse, and I randomly get dizziness due to prolonged screen activity.

Some other things I worked on:

  • Reintroducing nextcloud, this time with more capability for file editing.
  • Added an office suite extension for nextcloud, so now I can edit excel files online.
  • Working on the zone dashboard.
  • Got back into some powerbi (after I found some .pbix files which I'm pretty sure is not meant to be seen by the company.

Competencies

Not sure to what extent this is of any use but I can see the progress of everyone's competencies. Interesting find.
