#I love watching videos on like. punctual(?) subjects re: physics but my brain is not very friendly with it unfortunately

[sevicia]

danteee i know u dont talk a lot about what u study specifically cuz reasons but can i ask why did u choose to do physics / coding stuff? somehow i feel theres some correlation with ur ability to play master mode on pjsekai

KYA (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠) I chose to do coding stuff cause I genuinely enjoy doing it and the classes where it's the sole focus are always my favorite<3

There's just something about like... getting it Right that is so satisfying because it really feels like I'm making friends with my computer<3 I genuinely love the fact that you have to be very precise and thoughtful in your instructions in order for things to work right. It's the kind of communication I wish was everywhere 24/7 like OMG... we understand each other.....

I also love getting to see it work in the same way I assume animators feel when they see their hard work move on the screen. I've made super small, simple gifs very sparsely in my time but it's the same feeling. It makes me sad that others can't seem to get it and look at me all confused when I'm raving about a computer doing things they take for granted because it's not just A Computer doing something "simple", it's years and years and years of hard work by people who are passionate about what they do. They were probably jumping up and down and cheering for joy and now people just say "well, of course it can do that".

Besides being a chronic "My computer is my friend :D" type guy, I also chose this instead of anything art-related because of the obvious economic insecurity factor but also because creative work just takes up so much more brainpower imo. There's just so much more thinking involved when it comes to getting people to see what you want them to see because you're not creating something for a hard-set purpose (even if it's silly). A book can mean a million different things to a million different people, but a calculator is just an aid for everyday life (for most people). Also, I just really hate the thought of not being able to make the things I want to make just because they won't pay well or appeal to a broad-enough audience to be considered "worth making". It's one of the reasons Terrifier's success makes me so happy.

OK ramble over #SORRYYY I just love my computer even when she bites me and hates me. on account of the storage space warning I choose to ignore....
