Some day, maybe, #Steam will move the "big picture" button from the place where every other window has its "minimize" button.

The experience tiers of #software #developers:
Tier 0: never tried #programming
Tier 1: tried programming, realized it was hard
Tier 2: kept trying programming after realizing it was hard
Tier 3: experienced enough to identify and properly build basic structures
Tier 4: experienced enough to identify and properly build large structures and systems
Tier 5: experienced enough to know when *not* to build large structures and systems
Tier 6: too jaded to be useful anymore; probably a gardener or pilot or something now

There was some really cool #purple #cloud #lightning last night just after sunset. The most surreal part was that it caused no #thunder. Here's a compilation of some of the cooler strikes I was able to capture with my shitty phone camera:
Software engineering contractor/consultant in Florida specializing in .NET C# #WebDev, plus #Indie #GameDev in #MonoGame, #Stride, and #Godot.
I like complex simulations and enjoy writing procedural generation algorithms for fun.
#Pilot in training. Burgeoning fan of #Aviation in general.
Fan of #1A jurisprudence and the kind of #FreeSpeech that applies to everyone equally.
Pro-Democracy. Pro-Rights. Pro-Freedom. In that order.
