Today I'm carrying on looking for a literary agent to represent me for my young adult speculative fiction. Long after human civ collapsed, crows have evolved to speak and are under…

FFS, can humans not just keep creating plastic crap that'll ruin the planet. Make your own wooden spoon and you have a beautiful object created with your own hands.

Woah. Do you have any pictures or videos? I'd love to find out more.

Awesome! It's much easier to get into than people think. It's well worth learning how to make decent tongs, it's one of my favourite things to make, especially if you learn to punc…

Sorry, I've got a long way to go before they're sellable! I'm just setting up a forge at a friend's farm to do more forging at weekends. There are a few people who want to learn an…

I tried being self employed for 3 years but didn't make enough money to live on. Now I'm full time employed. I don't forge that much, lots more time doing cutting, welding, grindin…

Great article! I'm a dev turned blacksmith, currently getting back into bladesmithing. Working on my perfect kitchen knife. Here's my first attempt (San mai, mild steel with recycl…

From the description: "Two dummies are impaled on poles. You have slap the hips and smack the bum in time to the music. Its probably the worlds first mannequin based guitar hero ga…

Thanks! I also wrote Tiny Solar System which is kind of KSP for 5 year olds. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2116950/Tiny_Solar_System...

Spacewar! (there's an exclamation mark in the name) inspired me to write a modern one player version with gameplay more like the amazing (and free) Waves ( https://store.steampower…

I'm throwing this out there but maybe it'll catch someone's attention. I'm not your usual coder. I've been programming since the age of 10. I'm 52. I've also worked in forestry, fa…

Hmmm, interesting. Not sure if it would be much use for balloons but if you could make vacuum sections for walls then you could make super insulated walls.

Have more money coming in than going out. Escape from the city back to the country.

Great feedback. Not offended at all. And you write wonderfully, with compassion and passion. Yes, you're right. Life throws some terrible things but a lot of those things will occu…

That, man, right there. Those are the moments you remember. I had jobs where I sat at a desk for a year and nothing remarkable stands out. Then there are small memories which are j…

Drop stuff that doesn't work. I started programming as a kid. 40 years ago. I wrote a game with a friend while we were at school. It made us a tiny amount of money for 3 years work…

2 and 3 now implemented. Just gone live. Hopefully working :-) Check the about page too.

OP here. Haha. That's sums it up perfectly. I don't mind coming across as stupid.

OP Here, Considering how much I've played it, it still doesn't surprise me at all when I'm wrong. Glad you enjoyed it.

Yeah, things did get hectic. Still pretty busy today. The support and feedback from here was amazing though. I didn't expect that. It really helped me get through. And takeaway foo…

Oooo, I like that. That's really clear.

OP here. It all came out right in the end! The server was bought to it's knees. Sysadmin thought I (as a very new customer) was up to something bad (my email address is james@rootd…

OP here. Awwww, I love how much great positive feedback this is getting. I literally have tears in my eyes.
