not everything has to be fast. not everything has to be efficient.
write in a language that sparks joy. don't want to figure out a clever algorithm? don't. your program is eating ram like a motherfucker but it gets the job done? that's okay
you don't understand recursion? don't use recursion. you don't understand how to manually allocate memory? don't use a language that makes you do that
there's time to learn all of that. or don't! people have worked hard to make it so you don't have to!
just make things
@nolan i noticed this a few minutes ago and now i'm kinda curious!
you pull-request to yourself in your projects..?
brain stuff (+++)
i had a doctor's appointment today to ask about the sort of things i could do about the extreme measures i need to take to get over my inertia and actually *do* anything productive, because it turns out that's not typical at all

i didn't feel even a *little* bad about starting to do things! is this what it's like to have normal motivation??

I went to the Living Computers Museum in Seattle last week! I don't take photos much so I don't have a lot to post but I figured I'd share what I did take https://livingcomputers.org/
lack of empathy (-)
saw someone publicly dragging an artist through the mud because they didn't get to commissions fast enough, and then sent a sketch for the wrong person
now i just feel bad for the artist and extremely never want to interact with the person dragging them
this whole mentality that not being productive is enough to cancel someone makes me so sad
it makes me so happy to know that there are people in the world who think of me like that, hee!
oh hi! i do computers, and sometimes draw stuff~ i like lo-fi things and cute aesthetics!
