Yep, I'm doing a ton of things right. It's really enjoyable and I highly recommend it. :)
Just to name some..
-Working on the IT infrastructure and one of the 5 or so founders of a 160p LAN party.
-Data analysis of Chicago parking tickets: https://plot.ly/~red-bin/6.embed https://plot.ly/~red-bin/6.embed
-Sued the mayor of Chicago for his phone records and won. Still working on it, but I met up with a journalist to discuss last Monday.
-Doing HFT systems tuning as freelance (pays the bills, too).
-Submitted a major infrastructure bug to comcast. Talked to their CISO and everything.
-Did the same for Northwestern, but with less followthrough.
-Learned a bit of R, significantly improved my python, did a bunch of random silly projects.
-Made a proof of concept for a domestic violence shelter finder for a hackathon. Just handed off the code to a few junior coders to ride with.
-Made a minecraft 3d printer print a png mural by pulling from github in-game. Limited myself to only using textures in the game without color transformations. Became a really hard problem, since the 'pixels' used by the printer don't move. Learned more than I'd thought from that project.
..It's fun. :)
