WEEKNOTES 16
2024-W16 - 15 to 21 April

I haven’t had enough time to finish writing it, and I might need some help from ChatGPT, just like I did with my other projects.

It’s not the fastest process, for sure and it usually takes a whole day to complete the backup but it’s totally worth it for the peace of mind it gives me.
