To some degree with software projects I feel pressure to choose the latest technology,
or a programming language that's especially well-suited to a task.
After reading ILSSA's report and Emily Larned's essay "The Work is the Thing,"
I felt inspired to re-think how I pursue personal projects.
About halfway through January I decided to spend less time on social media.
Specifically I decided to do less scrolling. I wanted my media consumption to be more deliberate.
While I didn't like Keyholders, I'm sorry to see that it's closing. In my opinion,
more skateparks means fewer people at my skatepark. Also I assume having more skateparks helps grow the sport locally. I don't know how many beginner skaters Keyholders attracted, but it can't hurt.
This is my tier list for skateparks in and around Buffalo, New York.
Only skateparks within an hour's drive of downtown Buffalo are included.
Skateparks that are in Canada (Fort Erie) or attached to skateshops are excluded.
