      I started doing tons of math, programming, and music composition when I was young. Now, all of it is second nature (math at least up to a select few abstract subjects, almost all applied subjects). It feels good to have a couple skills that I know I have, and I know I am good with them, and I know how much more I really know now than how much I did when I first started. It feels good.

      Attenborough: "If we look closely, we can see the developer attempting to find what he believes is the last bug of the day. Little does he know, there is great danger lurking just around the corner. For this is no ordinary bug. This... is an off by one error, introduced to his codebase from a Stack Overflow post... dated February 2014. The developer is in for quite the shock when he spots his array... being read not twice, but three times... and of course, just before the print statement that he has so haphazardly used for debugging. For now... we watch... and we wait... for we will be given a rare glimpse into the demise of yet another developer."

    But you take it so many steps further. You do the research and study and practice the things that can help you to do it yourself.

Kinda like Runescape skill leveling applied to real life; it's a grind while you're in the moment, but after some time, you can look back at your progress, and see that you've gotten somewhere.

You, sir, are an inspiration for someone like me - who stayed in the corporate world for far too long, burnt out not once but twice, and while I don't have a penny to my name, and if I did I would definitely be supporting you on Patreon - but what I do have is compliments and my sincerest "Thank you" for putting together what you've done with your videos as well as telling me about your history.

And dont compare yourself to others too much, just focus on were you are now and then decide where to go and learn from there. Otherwise, you will set your expectations too high and you will get frustrated too fast. Let your interests guide you and pick a small project at first, then you automatically will find more interesting concepts that are aligning with your current skill level.

    "I pitched the audio down several levels to sound more manly"
    I run a studio, and I think people just hear their voice deeper when they talk because most of the sound is coming from inside your own body, and a lot of that low end is lost when it goes through the air. You probably just pitched it down to sound more like you thought it would sound.

      I actually started in AMOS on Amiga, then in QuickBasic DOS era, then moved to Java, but then Flash got my full attention in the late nineties, and I got pretty good with all of the iterations of ActionScript til 2010's. Since then I'm in Unity C# where I feel my home is. Some of my first 'useful' code happened on a summer 1987, on MSX, I used to make little games and funny programs, like the one with which I measured how fast the cars were driving on a highway that I could observe from my grandma's flat. I knew the distance between the street lights, so I would hit space when a car would enter and leave a particular segment of road. In the early nineties I've made a graphical multimodal window interface (similar to Windows) in plain DOS on a PC '486, by hacking into memory segment in which BIOS stored its system ASCII font and making it display graphical elements. In the mid-nineties, when I was 15, I was already repairing hard disk soft errors (like vanished partitions) by editing the partition tables manually. In the late nineties I was reverse-engineering MP3, but the games have always been the main passion for me. The games are the pinnacle for me, because of how graceful you need to be with the machine, and yet all you care about is someone's soul. I believe the art is true only when you're proficient enough that you care not about the medium, but the message that you're sending across. We all come with crazy and different backgrounds, you see.
