No ideas on what you should do with your time but I would LOVE to see you solicit a bunch of editorials and articles from your community of readers to...

I have a Raspberry Pi on my Christmas list.
I already have a bunch of Arduino stuff but wouldn't mind have some more random sensors or maybe a robot chassis and...

Well that's anti climactic. 🙁

MVP is an award for community contributions. That's it. It shouldn't guarantee a DBA job any more than spending time at Toastmasters should. It's about how much you share with...
