After setting up static IP between two computers, (1) it was not so bad, and (2) I estimate I am two decades behind. The only way to catch up is to foster an environment where one must create the things one wants to do. Make a game to play one. Write the screenplay instead of watching the movie. Make paper models, sketch wireframes, and read books. All I can do is block, block, block. Be bored or burning calories. Be the only one--for a while, maybe--who can quit vi or compile a program. Fundamentally, mechanics, math, and programming. Write adventures, design levels, and port Photoshop tutorials to Gimp. Foster a network, but (locally) not many may subscribe to this quirky constellation.
