So, there are some things that most people do, playing games, watching movies or television, playing music. So let's get specific.

What are some of your favorite things to do with your time? The more hyper specific the better?

Haha, I love that kind of thing too - even if there's a "better" off the shelf alternative, it's fun to figure it all out and design it exactly the way you want. it feels like doing a sudoku or writing a story or something to me. I feel like I wouldn't be working in tech if I hadn't initially gotten into making my setup just right with scripts - before that point I just didn't have a lot of programming tasks that caught my interest, but I learned a lot that way and eventually branched into other stuff too.
