It seems to depend how busy I am at work. If I'm in a less-busy time at work and am not doing a lot of actual progamming, I tend to come up with projects to do at home more. It's like there's a little itch that crops up; "you haven't made a thing in a while - go make a thing."
- gravy 7y agoWhat kinds of things do you make?
- tmtowtdi 7y agoUsually little tools for my own use. Lots of times they're things that already have good alternatives, but I wanted to see what I'd come up with - weather script, a show-me-my-router's-IP script, bash version of the mark/jump utility I've seen for zsh and fish shell. I got into making autoclickers for a while and signed up for a bunch of browser-based idle games, just to see if I could manage to control an autoclicker with Perl. For me it seems to be more about seeing if I can do something I haven't done before, or if I can make something that I personally like, than trying to make something that anybody else would find particularly useful.
