Edit: aninals to animals…
Welcome to the fold! Be warned: coders tend to be a weird bunch of folks.
The most important lesson I ever learned as I was starting out in software engineering came from my Design Principles teacher, during my short stint at a community college. That was a class which was technically not associated with a specific programming language, though the same teacher also taught various programming classes in different languages. She also wrote her own textbook for that Design class, actually… I still have my prepublication copy of it somewhere, that she had handed out to the entire class for free that semester. To this day, I still have a great deal of respect for that teacher. But I digress.
The lesson I learned from her was this: Programming languages are just tools like any other. Tools come and go over the years. The skills that you learn which will last beyond whatever language you’re learning and using right now are going to be things like how to construct good logic and how to structure a meaningfully intuitive user interface. These are the things that you should focus on perfecting first and foremost, rather than the syntactical nuances of any given language. If you have a good design at the outset, everything else should fall into place much more easily.
Minecraft and No Man’s Sky. (But then, I repeat myself.)
Also, to a lesser extent, Lemmy. That one is still more of a growing fixation, rather than a hyper-fixation.
Bicycles and playing bass. I also started collecting CDs a few years ago and that one is still going strong.
Yeah mostly albums I already know and like. I got almost 100 CDs from a variety of genres.
At the moment my executive function seems to be on summer break, but prior to that I had been designing a bird feeder in Fusion360. I usually find CAD to be a great way to shut out the world.
I’m (binge-)watching Star Trek. It is my way to destress and to cope with uncertainty since I was a child. It’s the only constant in my life and as an autistic person I’m really gratefull for such. Normally I would just watch one episode after work just like I watched one episode after school when I was a child. It helps me to relax.
At the moment I’m watching TNG (The Next Generation), which is what was running on TV after school when I was a kid. Inbetween TNG episodes I watched SNW (Strange New Worlds) as well as DIS (Discovery). Before that I watched PIC (Picard) season 3 as recommended by a friend.
When I was a kid I loved TOS (The Original Series) most, later followed by VOY (Voyager). Nowadays my favourite is SNW. Most of the series I like(d) instantly. To DIS however I just came back after quitting at season 2 when watching the first time.
