Around 80% of them are non-critical – newsletters, alerts from GitHub, issue trackers, etc. But I believe in inbox zero, so I had to...
The first half of the week was busy, with most of the time, including some weekend hours, spent closing work TODOs. But now that we’re in Langkawi, it’s all good :)
