Damn, this is so weird. I had the same experience, and was desperate and sad by how many years went by without me "actually living" (as I so thought at the time). I went to an extreme of really thinking with this internal monologue for everything that I did, even going to the bathroom. Otherwise I would feel like a robot from the cartoons I watched.


cool, now we all know that you are a fraud, permanently. Your reputation as an artist is doomed since the blockchain is nothing but a reliable and immutable ledger. Since it's public and verifiable now that you are knowingly stealing other artist's work, all of your other works and contracts will be crushed in the market. (yes, I'm being hypothetical here, I know it was just a proof of concept, etc)

So.. it is working as intended?


But the knowledge that he's stealing others' work comes from sources other than the blockchain record, if you don't count the fact that it's internally invalid for a living person to claim a work created in 1506. So the immutable ledger provides no value.

Regardless, taking a picture of a painting doesn't verify that you painted, or even currently own that painting. Adding a timestamp doesn't change that.


first of all, relax. I'd do anything to be a 18 years old programmer. Can't you get some help from your family? If you're really broke, that would at least cover your food expenses and such.

Otherwise, just keep looking and programming, you seem really passionate about it and started at a very young age (I begun programming when I was 22). If you really need some money, try anything that pays your rent/food/etc. and on the side keep looking for programming gigs.

I don't think it is a matter of luck, so I will just wish you a good night of sleep and a more relaxed mind.

Sorry about my english, lack of practice hurts that much.


I appreciate the warm advice and compliment. Relaxation sounds wonderful. Going to finish this "Buddha walks into a bar" book with a cup of tea soon.


As I was looking into your source code, I found out that you use SessionCam to kind of record the user experience. I wonder, as I'm not using a low-end PC or tablet, if it consumes too much memory or has any restrictions of use that I should be aware of. I might use their product in the near future, would you mind to give some thought on this?


We should removed that in production. We had it in there so we could debug rendering issues that beta testers were reporting. SessionCam claims it has little to no impact and we haven't really noticed any. Overall it works pretty well. The main thing for us was that other screen capture services didn't work for Angular apps, but SessionCam seems to work fine.


Thank you, ah, I forgot: really interesting app.


As long as you relax, make love and create, you will live forever.

Thats the message I got from it. Beautiful.
