When Brandon Sanderson has talked about possible screen adaptations of his books, he's started to hear people talking about an Arcane-style animated adaptation as an option they'd like.

And if we already have to involve all that, what good is blockchain doing that "a database" can't do?

Yeah it's definitely an HN clone, and that's much-needed because the orange site is a hellhole. I like their invite-tree system, and need to finish tracking down an invite.

• Software side projects, including a serious crack at a game I've been noodling with in my head

• Hardware side projects, starting with smart home stuff

• The physical house-construction part of smart home stuff, and some other diy projects too

• Mini painting and board gaming, especially trying to pull together some overlapping friend groups

• And yeah, some time no-lifing a game or two
