    I am very good at cooking now, like whatever I want to make I can AND I can take whatever we have and make something good, and I enjoy it, and people comment on it and want me to cook for them. Hobby level good, I would say. Food and drinks both, always something fermenting over here, and I love making cocktails (obviously).

    There are some things I really like to do but I wouldn’t say I ever got good at them, despite dumping lots of time into them.

    So I guess you could say I got really good at accepting I’ll never be really good at anything.

    I have a real passion for software development. There are raw skills like algorithms that lots of other people are better at, but when it comes to API design, clean code, enacting principles of good architecture and UX, I think I am uncommonly good. Most of the people I work with don’t care and frankly I think caring and practice is all it takes but somehow that’s not something most people in the industry are capable of.

    But I love making software that people like or at least hate less than what they had before.

        I have one that I’m enjoying, but we are going back to 4 days in the office and it’s 1.5 hours away without traffic and I only agreed to 1 day when I took the job. I just had a recruiter hit me up for a team lead position that I had to interview for at least, so for the right opportunity I’m looking. Ideally something permanent. Feel free to DM me if you’re serious.

    Oil painting

    I’m pretty good. I had a client donate two of my portraits of Patrick Mahomes to his foundation, which he signed and auctioned off, so somewhere in this country my signature is literally next to Patrick Mahomes’ on his own portrait in some rich assholes’ art collections.
