Well, I'm all ears and hopefully I will be able to answer.. Please lets limit the questions to things that have a statute of limitations

How do you like to spend your free time?

 

[Tyrsson]

Its usually spent one of two ways. Either learning new things about programming in languages other than my primary (Php) or making whiskey.

@Tyrsson how do you say Tyrsson - I assume it is Teer - son?

 

[Tyrsson]

Correct (well close enough lol), as in the son of Tyr

 

[Reverie]

Just was checking because when I look at it I also wonder if I'm saying it right lol.

If you could build a new social media, what would it have you have to have included on it?

 

[Tyrsson]

Well, first let me add a important note. Honestly, I think social media as most know it has been one of the worst things to ever happen to humanity. With that said.... A triggerable "easter egg" that would delete the entire application from the server

Oh man - that would a rather interesting easter egg of sorts xD

Would you advertise there is an easter egg to entice users to search for it?

 

[Tyrsson]

Absolutely, but not until the platform was in prolific use throughout the internet

Just pure evil lol. I love it.

Did you enjoy Myspace? (Since I know that's also how you got your start in coding!)

 

[Tyrsson]

It was...... Interesting to watch. In the end I enjoyed it for the exact reason that you mention. It got me interested in something that has literally saved my life more than once. Programming.

 

[Reverie]

What a good starting out story though!

I wish Facebook would be as customizable... I'm not as against social media - but I miss parts of Myspace honestly. The group feature on there in my opinion was even better.

How long have you known your longest friend for?

 

[Tyrsson]

Since probably 4th grade or so... Hard to remember really lol.

 

[Reverie]

That's cool you have a friend from that long ago still! That's rare!

What grade was your favorite year in school? Why?

 

[Tyrsson]

Senior year of highschool... I think you know why

 

[Tyrsson]

What's the most money you've ever made off of a programming project?
