#40 I need to keep my journals regularly updated.
6 years ago
It's been well & truly over two years since my last journal. Wow! Has it REALLY been that long? Time flies!
Well, 2020 is at my doorstep & I'm armed with my trusty .357 to tell it to get the Hell off of my property!
In all seriousness, here's what I have planned for 2020...
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
First, things first, I have decided (for now) to revert my writing color from cyan to default white. Mainly because I don't frequent F/A as often as I used to, & every time I do, I have to re-teach myself F/A's coding syntax.
Put this on top of the other coding languages I have to remember (C, C++, C#, Lua, Git, HTML etc)... yea. To make it easier on myself (& hopefully, on YOUR eyes), I'm stickin' with this color for the time being.
I have made quite a sizable post over on my FaceBook page with regards to what I have in store for 2020.
That is, I am going to be restoring some of my guitars, as the move to Ohai (now, two years ago) had left them in a sorry state of neglect.
As far as my YouTube channel is concerned, there is a lot of uncertainty surrounding YouTube currently, & I find it very discouraging with every time Google updates their terms & what constitutes "monetizable content" - IE Google does not want to pay content creators the money that they deserve.
As a result, I have been holding off uploading regular shit to my channel since 2012 & I still have my reservations about uploading to my channel.
By the way things are going, I don't see myself uploading to my YouTube channel any time soon; as much as I would like to do so, it seems to me that any time I plan to, Google throw another spanner in the works.
I am even iffy about SoundCloud & BandCamp, as whatever Google does to YouTube (& by extension, content creators), it has a flow-on effect throughout nearly every other facet of the internet.
I also haven't been uploading my music here, for similar reasons.
In recent years, I have turned my attention toward software engineering. That is doing things like programming microcontrollers for electronic devices (based on the Arduino open-source prototyping platform), script work for Garrys Mod Train-build, etc. A lot of that is going to be uploaded to my GitHub page.
With having saying that, it looks as though I am branching out of F/A. That's not entirely true. I have always treated F/A as my central hub, for everything that I do. IE There's links on my main profile to appropriate parts of my side of the internet. Be it my FaceBook page, Tumblr (which I no longer use), Twitter or my YouTube Channel.
I have also used F/A as a sort-of showcase for what I do, & in an indirect way, a social network.
I will still keep my F/A page here (& by crikey, I need to keep it updated more regularly).
Aside of that, I hope y'all have had a good new year & holiday season.
