I have to make time. I call nearby pharmacies to ensure meds are in stock before I request a refill from his doctor. If I don't, the doctor blindly sends it in and if the pharmacy is out of stock they will reject it and no one alerts me so its resulted in missed med days for my kid. Every 30 days.

Hooooold up!!!

So you mean to tell me that doing performance testing informed refactoring saves money? We should tell management about this life hack.

Yup the industry certainly is. I don't suggest anyone get into it now. It was much different 15 years ago.

I need to skill up my pixel art skills to make some fun games.

I've been around gamedevs for a long time, but never touched engine work. Unreal and Unity always felt overkill. I have enjoyed trying my hand at raylib and LÖVE though. Those seem to speak to me.

Much thanks. We've been trying to zero in on what matter most on the homepage especially since we've been around too long to list everything we can do so this was the result. Not like we get much organic traffic to it, but at least it gives a gist to folks who get referred to us.
