i am formally declaring (announcing?) the conclusion of operation: octo-squid. while the operation’s primary objectives will remain in place, i feel that the short-term goal the regimen was put in place to achieve has been accomplished for the time being. after nearly two years, i am well positioned to complete the project with my current resource i plan to keep the task categories and time blocking in place as it is for now, as i have found it to be a useful sort of mile marker for the day. it is unfortunate that some of the longer term benefits or goals of the experiment did not play out as expected; namely, the hope that by continuing to learn new topics, my interest and passion would not wane in the wake hence, i will likely forego the learn aspect, at the very least until project Dextrora has launched. i may in the future decide to reintroduce operation: octo-squid for this or other projects if beneficial moving forward, i have planned a new operation to carry out before resuming production, that will hopefully boost my output and motivate my desire to create, to be announced anon
