This section seems more blog-ish. The perils of doing things at too-early anti meridian,

Just finished delving into the world of self taught c++ for the day. Got about halfway through my second chapter - bitwise operations - and my focus was really wandering, so called time. Did get to the bit where they explained when it would be useful though. And about 5 hours of learning under my belt.

Until the last couple of days, I was flipping between Blender and c++. That way, I wasn't getting so fed up. If I got frustrated, or bored, or lost focus on one I could fall back to the other. But, I injured my wrist and have been refraining from using that hand as much as possible. Blender, is a very multi-key-shortcut experience and so I've only been doing the programming.

Definitely, thinking long and hard about trying Blender again - following a game asset tutorial series on YouTube, that should lead to baking, but when I left it was all sculpture workflow, which is not my strong suit.
