#### This Week
- Advance on [Khan Academy](https://www.khanacademy.org/mission/algebra-basics)
- I am frustrated by a lack of time. This will change soon, but I have set up a forked strategy for the coming year. Either my work contract will be settled, and I will continue working at Tech 2U, go to Sierra and worry about this later, or I will use my new days off to go to ARC where my assessments render this step un-necessary. Either way, I am removing this goal.
- Stay up on [Medium](https://medium.com/)
- I have done a great job of staying up on Medium every day, and contributing regularly. I will expand this goal to include contributing regularly.
- Advance on [HackerRank](https://www.hackerrank.com/domains)
- I have not had time for this, but with my coming transition, I will hope to make more time to advance here.
- Read [Hacker News](https://news.ycombinator.com/)
- I still read this almost every day. I will pin it to chrome to keep it fresh in my mind.
- Read [Indie Hackers](https://www.indiehackers.com/businesses)
