So my friend Jordan Rob, and I, are self-taught developers.
Everything we know, we got off Stack Overflow or YouTube (lol).
We have shared a number difficulties in trying to be better developers with each passing day.
With this in common, we promised to always lift each other up and encourage each other to take up new opportunities. We promised that we would not get comfortable and we would always strive to get better at what we do.

So when Google stopped working and our parents were restarting their phones several times, is when we realized that truly, there was no end to the surprises.

I was not making any contributions, and sadly, that whole week went just like that.
We (devs) wondered if there was a backdoor to the whole situation, maybe some independent internet Service Provider that didn’t serve the government or something – lol.
I was not sure what to do without the internet so I read books, watched movies on CD, took nature walks, anything to pass the time. How did our forefathers survive without the internet ?

This week:

- Has been a little bit slow, to be honest. Internet speeds are much slower now because of all the Virtual Private connections that have now become the new normal.
- I wrote a script for the In-depth video tutorial about the Mixxx communities; [the forum on discourse](https://mixxx.discourse.group/), [Zulip chat](https://mixxx.zulipchat.com/), Mixxx' social media platforms - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/mixxxdj/) and [Twitter](https://twitter.com/mixxxdj), filing a bug report in the [Mixxx launchpad](https://bugs.launchpad.net/mixxx/), and then finally how to contribute to any of the Mixxx projects on [GitHub](https://github.com/mixxxdj).

Submitted it to my mentor, in case I needed to make any adjustments, which I did.
- I was going through past articles on the Mixxx website when I came across this one about a minor website revamp and the creation of the current Mixxx website logo.
I noticed that the link to Paul Bloch of Open Artist was broken so I opened an issue for this in the website repo [here](https://github.com/mixxxdj/website/issues/200).

One of the things about contributing to open-source programs remotely is that no one will be physically around to push you to do anything or get work done.
The process is, for the most part, self-paced and I believe it takes a certain level of organization to make valuable contributions to a project.
