Hey guys. This article isn't meant to be helpful, or motivational, or really have a point at all. I'm just feeling a whole lotta love for code righ...

I vibe with this π Creating the goofy/silly one-off projects for me is the best - such a great way to create and learn while staying motivated!
Hell yeah. As much as coding can be a tiring and frustrating activity due to complexity which never goes away, I can't imagine giving up this super power of understanding on some level how the world works in a way you just can't if you don't understand software.
Yeah a great many years ago for me I also realized: creation without materials or manual dexterity is why I also fucking love coding :)
Even better for me is when I revisit a material idea I never got around to because "man, that's gonna be so fucking hard!" and can now look at it and (thanks to advances in technology and my own skill set) say "man, that's gonna be so fucking easy!" Well, maybe not totally easy, but so much easier than they would have been back then.
(hint: such ideas involve Raspberry Pis and mobile apps, things which either didn't exist or I was no good at when I first had the ideas)
Yew! I have no idea how I'd be surviving this isolation in Australia if it wasn't for coding and the winning vibes with pet projects.
(Probably would have watched the thirty Netflix series with my housemates)
Same! And it's such a good feeling to start a sideproject and then manage to get it to work π None of the (relatively small) sideprojects I'm working on will bring me any income or whatever, but it's so much fun doing it β€οΈ
It's nice to be able to just make something simply because you want to make it, and not because you're bound by some contractual obligation to do so, and then they get all the fame and fortune in the end.
Congrats for feeling this way, when you love something everything comes smoothly.
Did someone inspire you to learn Go?
I had this imperious need to learn Go and I just fall in love with it, but haven't got any time yet to learning it in deep.
Can you share your learning curve about it?
You are awesome, your love and fiery enthusiasm for the craft of coding is music to this formerly burnt out game industry vet. I have to set circumstances so that I feel that enthusiasm and thrill as it's been Hell trying to get the flow going against the PTSD (which I suffer from for violence related trauma) like procrastination of having burnt out twice working for AAA studios. My current project is a labor of love, very dear to me which might lead to some commercial opportunities or financing from local government programs as I'm designing it to be a reusable framework, turnkey scalable security oriented social media. The first iteration is meant to help sex workers work in a safer manner by engaging in their security and that of their peers in a proactive manner that will leave them in total control of the info they share. If self deployed timer events, chosen contacts will have all the shared info on hand to either decide to intervene themselves or call in Law enforcement. It will be open source :)
Ooooh, great idea, Spotinder !
Hahaha Iβve been debating about the name for far too long. Decided to go with Swipe Jam!
Did you pull Swipe Jam again? Just read the blogpiece and wanted to try it out but cant find it on Google play :(
Seconding this vibe ππΎ. The joy and challenge of going from thought bubble to any kind of software never gets old ππΎ.
Been cyclically rediscovering it for a bit more than 40 years now
METOO
I love coding too.
