Vaporware does tend to be pretty bug-free.

Try compiling without treating warnings as errors, maybe?

Probably a much better question is "why", for which the answer is: "You probably don't want to".

If you care about the learning: You can learn all that stuff for yourself.

If you care about getting a credential: You are in a field which doesn't care as much about those as other fields do.

If you want to teach and need the credential for teaching: Get therapy, teaching is a great way to live and an awful way to earn money.

Stupid question from an idiot from communist Canada: Can't you just import the bloody pills from somewhere that isn't the USA?

I may not believe in depression, but I'm trying to do this in response to having a hard time in life (issues with well-paid employment and belonging) while severely autistic/Asperger's.

It isn't helping much for finding a place in the world, but the activity this is generating is making me much happier. I have realised how powerful I am. I am actually pretty awesome to be doing the things that I'm doing. That feels good!

Not much luck with earning money though. I'm fine with it, my part-time job provides for me well enough. If money is an issue, you may want to first try to get some financial stability before you take a leap into creating something of your own.

EDIT: Post an anonymized resume here. Can't hurt. Worst case scenario you'll get some feedback.

I have always wanted to try OCaml, but there sure are a lot of things marked as breaking changes. Makes me a touch nervous.

Is this normal for OCaml?

Stable branches come to mind. How would you version those?

Good grief. Couldn't you have made the fonts less legible? I'm having too easy of a time reading.

Might have tried white on white, with a gray drop shadow. Still technically readable without highlighting!

Courage.

Try things. I have done web dev (front and backend), low-level OS stuff, game dev, math simulations, teaching, VLSI, etc...

In the end, looks like teaching and game development is what stuck. Took me years to discover this, but I'm happy with it.

If something does not appeal to you after trying it? Don't do it, go and do something else.

Be your own test.

I won't have it any other way.

The "not starving to death" thing is a bit of an issue on the way there... Well, I have savings, but...

And if I get a horrid job, then I won't have the energy. :P
