the orange pilling came from my experience building a bitcoin fork, which made me into a PoW maxi, and then in 2022, the Terra/Luna crash, and i almost got a job working for the scaffolding tooling for Cosmos but then at the same time, cosmos was going all in towards the Rust bullshit as well, which meant i was not able to find a shitcoin job that didn't require rust. and i hated rust, i tried to learn it but it's insane syntax and grammar and slow and expensive compilation just made no sense to me after being used to a fast test/modify/test cycle

also, yeah, i wanted to build things as a small child, and my father hated on me for it because he didn't offer to teach me things or give me work, so i would borrow his tools and play with pieces of wood and such, and then get into trouble. i have built a few things in my days and hope to build some more things, i have a vision of building some novel geodesic dome based structures for my bunker/cottage in the mountains of eastern europe in the near future. fun stuff with novel building materials and designs for radiation protection.
