Also, please answer your own question :)
Playing video games, drawing, reading, hiking, I've been getting more into rock climbing but I've only gone 3 times, camping, lighting shit on fire(Im a proud pyro)

fingers are crossed though :)

JETPACK MAN! ... Programming it. :)

Collision detection and (especially) resolution is hard. I'm trying to make it deterministic (exactly the same every time, meaning the game is unaffected by frame rate), 'a priori' (meaning predictive collision detection -- mine goes a step further, and collision is predicted at the exact instant it occurs instead of checking the next frame), and to follow as many 'good practices' as possible (e.g. making it 'pythonic', using libraries, writing tests, writing documentation, tracking issues, etc).

I'm working on getting a 'resting state', so that you don't get insane lag whenever you're 'landing' on something. I recently ran into some issues, and now I'm beginning to write some unit tests, that I hope will pay off some time in the future.

Also: 40hrs/week at an internship, working on a to-do list Windows 7 phone app, watching anime, playing games, trying to learn japanese, etc. :p

Making small games and failing to complete them..
Attempting to learn AI and failing (a few weeks later, I forget most of what I'd learned and re-learn them)..
Reminding myself to learn more math and physics and forgetting..

That's pretty much where I am now =/

I've been playing around with cards. Magic and flourishes - the fancy stuff. Then there's League of Legends, which eats up lots of time. I used to go climbing quite often, but now I do it occasionally, like once in a few weeks.
Now that I'm 18 and I've got the driver's license the bars and clubs may become the "new hobby" with my friends. Hopefully I start going climbing again. It's something where a car is a must-have.

@Sajin: Check out some Chris Sharma's videos. He's THE badass in climbing.:thup:

I recently decided to give sketching and drawing a go... it's going pretty well so far actually, quite enjoying it too. I recommend giving it a go :thup:
Yeah, it definitely sounds like a really interesting way to kill time, and if I get any skill with it, well, even better, right?

:D

I tried when i was younger, but i dont have the time for this. There are many other things much more important to me right now although i would really really like to be able to draw and sketch on a higher level of skill.

squash is a fun game, just hardly any places still have a squash court.... (or newly built places don't have them -.-")
Yeah? I know there's at least one place somewhere near me. I should give it a go sometime.

    We have been getting crazy numbers reported by the forum of people online the bots are going crazy on us I think it is AI training bots going at it at least that is what it looks like to me.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Most legit traffic is tracked on multiple Analytics and we have Cloud Flare setup to block a ton of stuff but still there is large amount of bots that seem to escape detection and show up in the user list of the forum. I have been watching this bullshit for a year and still cannot figure it out it is drving me crazy lol.
