Wolfwalkers cost $13 million to make and that's with human labor drawing it with pens.
How do you manage to make it that much more expensive than the thing you want to replace?

I wanted interesting looking typefaces for my printmaking assignments when I was taking studio art classes on the side in university. Now that I've been laid off, I wanna polish it and see what other people create with it.
Lots of room to rewrite and improve it, but I have job applications and interviews to get through.
I was working on a routing application for San Francisco (+Daly City) where it includes being able to put how willing you are to walk to certain bus routes instead of how most apps try to put the least amount of walking and don't consider that if the wait for a bus or train is long, then I don't mind walking to connect to another route that takes me to my destination faster. It takes tree shade, elevation, and marked off location to avoid into account.
It evolved into more of tool for planning leisure walks and runs that could hit places I'd want to visit with a loose timeline--for days where I would want to wander and then end up at a particular stop/station to get back home.
Talking about them here has more ideas churning in my head and reminds me to step outside of my little bubble to remember why I truly love coding. To make fun and convenient experiences.

I'm a Software Developer with experience in applied cryptography, general backend and solving bugs in distributed systems. On the side, I develop websites for artists to maintain their portfolios and shop fronts. Definitely flexible as a generalist with a knack for picking up new technologies, exploring new challenges, and not afraid to dive into complex math when the situation calls for it.Currently working on a designer-oriented application that gives artists more control over typography for their pieces and websites, as it's what I've wanted when I design my own flyers and as an event coordinator in the music industry.
