I'm mostly retired from a lifetime as a graphics programmer and CTO, and now I'm working through my lifetime of fun backlog projects. https://pcons.org, https://deep-timeline.org, https://pelorus-nav.com, https://packzen.org, https://github.com/garyo/sea-surface-temp-viz, https://globe-viz.oberbrunner.com/ and lots more. All open source and free.

Sure, make money from software. I did. But when you have enough and it's time to give back, open source it.

This is where I'm at. I'm one of the few Gen-Z with enough to live on comfortably + safety net, so I give back.

Edit: took a look, neat stuff you're doing!
