Eve DevBlog 45: Fine Touches
There’s a lot to be said for superficiality. The more programming work I do, the more often I find that it’s easiest to start with the outside and work your way in, rather than build a scaffold towards a nebulous…

Eve DevBlog 44: The Lay of the Land
Sigh. And I am reminded forcibly of why I hate dedicating entire weeks to programming! Not only is the work sometimes a drag – I like programming, but it’s easy to get intimidated and/or frustrated by some of the problems…
Eve DevBlog 43: Making a Stand
Okay! Time is kind of all starting to melt together into one undifferentiated mass in my mind right now, which is a sensation I associate with productivity, so it may have been a good week. Let’s find out! Item 1:…

Eve DevBlog 36: Stalled
I’m super frustrated with how this is going. I don’t think working on programming a bit here and there is working very well, and problems which should take me a few days to solve are bloating and taking me weeks.…
