Inspired by [Justin Flory](https://justinwflory.com/) and [Dan Schneiderman](http://www.schneidy.com),
I decided to make a 2018 review post. I believe that it would be a good way to reflect upon what I did
in 2018 and make plans for 2019. This post will be a very high level overview of the projects and
activities that I did in 2018 -- nothing personal. Pictures say a thousand words, so, I will include a lot.
