Love watching this. It makes you realize that the process of discovery and trial/error during programming is universal to everyone and what makes you feel sometimes stupid should never stop you carrying on. Also shows the celebration of the minor successes ('yeah! it's working'), followed by the 'what the... ?' is something even the greatest experience.

I can't help but think of how much money this guy has and how he's still at it, hacking away and streaming his program-a-thon. Seems like a good role model not only for creative programming but also surviving success.

'surviving success' is one of those good problems to have...which makes it, in some ways, a non-problem. surviving failure is a lot more impressive.

Success scares me far more than failure.

depends on how much you enjoy food i guess
