I haven't touched this site in months and cringed when I saw what I wrote back in February, so for the third time of the year I'm doing changes nobody cares about just so that I can feel better about myself. If you visited this page before you might remember it as the Articles page; however I quickly realized I wouldn't have any motivation to make actual articles. Maybe I'll be able to do something if I use this format instead. Now that I think about it I remember considering to write a detailled breakdown of the bytebeat-based demo I released at revision (video here) because one scener I met there was really interested in what I was making, but after writing my comment on the video I thought I already said enough things about my prod so I gave up and that's the end of the story.
Also I may talk a bit about myself now thet I'm pouring some effort on my personal site (for once). I'm currently writing this at 5am because my sleep schedule is completely messed up. I've had virtually all the free time I want to work on personal projects since college ended in early May (I'm admitted to year two by the way), yet I'm even less productive than usual and this makes me feel like shit. In two months, I've made two bytebeat covers (and a few other related projects with the display tech I made the demo for revision) and three C64 programs that barely work (waving rasterbars, a sprite multiplexer and a DYCP scroller); that's pretty much it. All that could have been done in a single day if I were less lazy. I can't imagine what I could have done in two whole months at this pace, but instead of making a good use of my time I watch youtube until I run out of videos to see (trust me, that's not an easy task), then I open wikipedia and overload my brain with info about trains until I can't assimilate anything more for the day. Despite this I'm still having a decent amount of human interactions (not IRL of course), I've done a crazy amount of discord voice calls in the past few weeks. Due to that I'm improving quite a bit at speaking english, but at the same time seeing other people being productive doesn't help me get more motivation. I'm not even lacking ideas, in fact I have several (semi)-long term projects I want to finish, but I can't be bothered to learn new stuff or focus on coding for more than five minutes straight. "Fortunately" I will soon be forced to keep a schedule again and I really hope this will mark the end of my struggles with productivity (why am I even saying that).
That was pretty much everything I wanted to get out off my chest and on that I'm going to sleep.
