Timeline
ProxOS
Started a bytecode VM and assembler as a side project. Small, and I am writing all of it myself.
Shadow Workflow research
Began researching the work loan processors do outside their formal systems, before writing any software for it.
Peko on hold
Stopped after five and a half years. I could not convince myself the opportunity was good enough to justify another five.
Kyro
Specified a JavaScript engine for Peko to embed. Architecture, build order, and the rulings an implementer needed. Postponed when Peko was.
Eagle Scout
Completed the Veterans Memorial Wall for Escondido Moose Lodge 1874. Recognized by the City of Escondido, the City of San Marcos, and Congressman Darrell Issa.
Started high school sports
Football in the fall as a defensive end, wrestling in the winter, distance track in the spring.
Unity games and Replit sites
A few video games in Unity and a lot of small websites on Replit. None of it shipped anywhere.
Coding and robotics classes
The school version of it, running alongside everything I was doing on my own.
YouTube courses
Most of what I picked up about lower level programming came off YouTube rather than out of a classroom. Honestly that is still where a lot of it comes from.
Started programming
Scratch, when I was nine. Dragging blocks around until something moved on the screen.
