Are you unemployed or millionaire?
- ethanwillis 4y agoI think this an insensitive comment. I don't know if you meant it that way, but if so well. You know :) In either case whether the OP is unemployed or a millionaire this takes dedication and hard work and it's an amazing amount of work so good for them!
- KodyBerns99 4y agoThanks for the support, I think he meant how someone can spare so much time in creating them.
- llagerlof 4y agoSorry, I don't meant to be insensitive.
- KodyBerns99 4y agoIts okay, I think you said it in humor
- KodyBerns99 4y agoIt was a hobby project to have some tools of my own, but once I started... every day a new idea for a tool started popping up and I kept creating one after another
- ggandhi 4y agoI know this feeling. I have gone down similar rabbit hole once too; and it was fun, relaxing and act as a stress buster for me. Thanks for sharing these.
- arcturus17 4y agoIt's very cool, but nothing drove you aside of that? Did you think it would bring you prestige, etc.? Did something else than the joy of coding keep you going?

- arcturus17 4y agoa) I wasn’t asking you, I was asking OP b) That page is condescending af; I am a hacker too, and even if I wasn’t, it would still be condescending af. Rather idiotic, too, as it assumes that asking about the motive for building something is a bad question, when in fact many hackers may have perfectly good reasons (learning, self-promotion, profit, etc) to build something other than just for the fun of it.
- KodyBerns99 4y agoI really dont know how to explain this, but once I started I never thought of stopping. I felt like Tom Hanks of Forrest Gump who was just running and running.. I really enjoyed creating those tools and for surely, I will create more.

- Tempest1981 4y agoCould be a weekend hobby -- 12 per weekend. Still, good dedication!
- KodyBerns99 4y agoYes, but sometimes I ended up making just one because things sometimes dont go as per plan.
