MaxCoderz

Apologies for the necropost. I felt like reliving some of my favorite and cringiest moments of my life, so I stumbled back upon MaxCoderz.

I'm curious where everyone is at in life... What people are doing, working on, etc.

Hi Patori, good to see you're still around and I hope you're well!

I work as a web developer but still dabble with programming older Z80 systems and hacking around with electronics for fun when I have the opportunity. Sadly I haven't done much on the calculator front for a long time after my TI-83 Plus developed a fatal fault (a corrupt certificate, as far as I can tell). I have since purchased a replacement but not spent any time working on any projects for it. There are sadly only so many hours in the day...

What have you been keeping yourself busy with?

I ultimately ended up getting into Software Engineering.

I do fullstack work for a FinTech company. Rails stack, sometimes Kotlin and python work.

Got married, have a 4 month old daughter, and am pretty happy and blessed.

Haven't gotten to do much with my Ti83+ for a while, but have been tempted to work on getting it to interact with a raspberry pi somehow.

Heya long time no see

I'm still around, although I'm mostly active on Cemetech Discord server nowadays, as well as CodeWalrus discord server (which is much less active though). A lot of the French people are still on TI-Planet and active on Cemetech too. I check here too every once in a while in case some "secret" projects appear. (we never know!)

I don't code as much nowadays but I made an RPG last year.

Due to sexual harassment in real life that happened sporadically but in bursts from 2007 to 2017 and to a lesser extent some bullying by the same people involved I have been out of work since late 2018 (although I have some minimal revenues from music making) due to the combination of the resulting PTSD and other related issues.

Hey patori, long time no see.

I'll never go away by choice lol
