I work as a Java programmer, which means that I spend about 50% of my day complaining about Java. Why doesn’t it have enums like Rust? Why are there no tuples? How many goat sacrifices do the Java gods require to support named optional arguments to functions like Python? In the remaining time I have meetings, write docs, write tests, and sometimes even code. Nothing to complain about though, seeing how we are treated compared to people I know who work as taxi drivers or in elderly care, we programmers are basically treated as gods.

As for music, I like Hardstyle and Drum and Bass primarily. Examples: “Phuture Noize & Devin Wild - Waves”, DnB: “Telomic & Susan H - Underwater”. I’ll be visiting the DnB festival “Liquicity festival” this weekend so I’m very hyped right now

Did a 30 day fast years ago, definitely need to look up medical information beforehand though. There’s some nutrients your body needs to function but it’s a short list which you can take with water (stuff that helps your neurons, etc). Was truly a different experience, would probably do it again if I had the time available.

I got synaesthesia, and Track_Shovel is a red and yellow name.

I don’t have synaesthesia, and Track_Shovel is a name.

Fair enough, equally valid

Track_Shovel OP ,

That’s super cool! What colour is your name

Bonus points for metal

I always recommend Shaka Ponk

More electro-rock-metal but still jaw-dropping

Part-time cashier at a big orange hardware store while trying to get my degree in horticulture.

Best cake I’ve ever had: Chocolate Chocolate Chip by Nothing Bundt Cakes. Seriously, if there’s a location near you that you’ve always passed by, stop by and try it. Their Carrot cake and Lemon cake are also amazing.

PopcornPrincess ,

Omg the carrot cake is delicious. Everything I’ve tried has been on point.

Track_Shovel OP ,

Check out gnoosic.com they have a really strong algorithm that’s great for finding bands. It’s sent me shit with 27 monthly listeners.

I’m an Asian (Hongkonger to be exact) and I speak Cantonese. I love sharing about my culture, most of the time including language. People don’t quite like it tho.

Meanwhile I study CS, make vector arts, play piano, and stream.

Just out of curiosity, is your username your name in Chinese?

Nope, but it is in some way related

Work: Self-employed software developer, currently designing veterinary shop microservices. Still haven’t decided if I will use Java(spring) or Python(django-rest), (or none?) Insights will be highly appreciated ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Music: EDM, Robert miles ~ children . This song reminds me how we moved around a lot when i was 3-4 yo. (My father was a civil contractor on different companies, states apart) Finally, a song that sums up the confusions I had.

Tidbit: People highly underestimate their hearing capabilities. I mean, We’re not dogs, but our ears collect more information than we ever asked for. All you have to do is LISTEN.

Best Meal: My mom’s. And yes, I know I might be highly biased on this. I’ve tried pizzahut, KFC, and every premium buffet out here. But naaah. My mom hosts catering services, BTW.

Best place: to date? High school where I was studying. It’s at the foot of Mt meru, at the gates of Arusha national park. Almost every day, we wake up to the sound of zebras and giraffes grazing high trees, takes all the stress away.

Track_Shovel OP ,

Man. That HS experience. I would give a kidney to see Africa like that

Lol, you should have seen us the day buffalo herd grazed 50m away from school fence bruv, absolutely no one got out of the hostels (of which, as a high schooler, jumping and hanging all day in the rooms). One of the guards almost got horned.

Still, I wouldn’t trade anything on this earth with this experience. I’m highly thankful 😊

Edit: To be frank, I was busy chasing my crush, who was also chasing her crush, who was my homie, whom we played GTA san Andreas together. (a stupid triangle 😫). Every time I got a chance to look out the window on my hostel and see these graceful creatures, it reminded me how lucky I was.

Those things do not fuck around

I am one of a handful of people in the world known to have been diagnosed and treated for a rare sarcoma cancer in an even rarer area of the body, that generally effects only women (I am a man).

It’s a really crappy club. I wouldn’t suggest joining.

Track_Shovel OP ,

Shit.

I’m really sorry, dude. I genuinely hope you get better.

Monster96 ,

I’m a storyboard artist/3d generalist and I’m working towards my dream of one day developing my own cartoon or video game. I’d love to be a showrunner or game director and this is one of the ways I believe I’d be able to get there!

A few of my favorite songs are Love You by Idenline, Sacrificial by Rezz, Over You by Flume, Paint It Black by The Rolling Stones, and Walk by Pantera.

Did you know that for the music in 2016s Doom they used an actual chainsaw as a sound one of the songs (reddit.com/…/til_mick_gordon_pitchshifted_a_sampl…)

Best meal I’ve ever had was a BBQ burger in New York. I can’t quite remember the restaurant since thus was back in high school but I’ve never tasted something as good as that since.

Best place I’ve ever visited was Banff in BC, Canada. I went with a lot of friends and to this day I still cherish those memories of walking around the town, having ice cream, and just having fun.

International buyer for performance exhaust system manufacturer.

My foster child is also my niece

LOVED Belgium. Visited St Truiden, Ghent and Brussels. I cried for a week when I left I missed it so much.

I have every album by Radiohead, Bela Fleck and Medeski Martin and Wood.

Track_Shovel OP ,

That’s really great you took your niece in.

Never been to Europe and kick myself for going to Asia instead.

I'm going to a King Gizzard show next month, pretty excited.

Best meal I probably had was an emotional support curry I made for myself.

I'm also excited about restarting my D&D campaign after a small hiatus.

Currently I'm pretty tired but I'm also going though some revenge bedtime procrastination...

Track_Shovel OP ,

I’ve never actually sat and listened to Gizzard. On my list, but my free time is chronically limited.

Curry is love. Curry is life.

What are you going as for DND? I don’t play, but know enough to be dangerous. Also, I’ll make an AI drawing for you if you like.

Example:

Hope you rest up. I burn the candle at both ends so I know the feeling.

If you're a metal fan give PetroDragonic Apocalypse and Nonagon Infinity a try. Their other albums aren't metal but pretty good nonetheless.

I'm the game master actually! So I play as all the NPCs lol.
