RESISTANT?
There's an anagram of STAINS in there, and ABOUT would be RE, but I can't justify the extra "T".

Nope.
But I do agree that restrain myself if I am suspicious

I've been writing code I've been meaning to write for years, and I loved the challenge.
Slang is a cool project even if
A) maybe i can't explain it to anyone
B) maybe i'm the only one that ever uses it
C) maybe it's only even cool to me
And deslang was super cool too even though it was just basically a utility for slang. Serializing code to code - what's not to love? 
I used to work with someone that could have appreciated it, but back then I *did* make something like it. It was proprietary because I did it for money, but this version is better. Better designed, better executed, and with some new ideas behind it.
Kinda wish I still did work with that someone right now though. He'd get a kick out of this.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

You better not talk to her about parsers and code DOMs though

There's a slight chance she'd like that.

I tried that before. Trouble is we had a falling out. Each blamed the other for it. Then he moved 3000 miles away to NYC. I tried to bury the hatchet after years. He tried too, but things were just never the same.
In a way, I helped make the guy rich tho. I'm the one that taught him to code. We don't hate each other, but we just can't connect like we used to.

Wow, he really can't stand being near you! 
Sounds tough though.
How many years ago is that?
Maybe if you call him now he's like "hey, that's nice, how are you!"
He'll still live 3000 miles away though.
I had the same thing happen with a really good friend from high school.
We met a few years ago and it was just a bit awkward.
After all those years we just went completely different ways.
Anyway, this is exactly what I don't like about being my own boss.
It's always just me.
Sometimes it's fun to talk about some code with coworkers.
I do share a workplace with some people now, but they're not on my team so it's not quite the same.

Actually, he survived a mass shooting that took several of my friends in seattle in 2006. He was in the house.
So I think part of the move was to get away from that. Completely change gears. I don't blame him. That, and Mastercard offered him a ton of cash to develop something for them, so he took the deal and started his own shop in NY.
It was a couple years ago that I reached out. I don't think I will again for awhile.

Gosh, that's relatable. Even I'm not working in software, i was my own boss in the arena for a bit. But I've found in doing it so long, I just didn't have a lot of peers in general in the field depending on where I landed. It's why I sometimes liked bigger shops like MS that sucked up all the local talent. I could find people to talk to. Otherwise, it was really hit or miss. A lot of other coders don't understand my work.

Ouch 
Did that in any way contribute to your current mental health?

That includes yourself

My therapist seems to think so. It destroyed my inner social circle. Even the people that survived were never the same.

I can imagine.
Really sorry to hear that 
Luckily, you now have CodeProject, your distributed, highly available FaaS (Friends as a Service) cloud offering 
If one region goes out it'll failover to another (unless that region is hamster world in Canada)

You could still show it to him though. Right?
honey the codewitch wrote: A) maybe i can't explain it to anyone
Not everyone, but anyone yes. I intend to read it properly during Christmas vacation.
honey the codewitch wrote: B) maybe i'm the only one that ever uses it
Just because I don't have a reason to use it today. I still know where to go when I need to look it up.
honey the codewitch wrote: C) maybe it's only even cool to me
Nope.
The ways to reach Ikigai is can be convoluted.
So keep in mind that what the world needs might be wisdom and knowledge.

I have a lot of code like that.

A. I don't completely follow it.
B. I probably won't use it.
C. I still think it's cool though!

I'd love to know about the things you're not clear on as it will help me in future explanations/articles.
I'm probably going to continue working on this beast for awhile. It's got a lot of shoring up that needs to happen

It not a case of I can't understand it, it's a case of I don't have enough free time to spend on going through the stuff that isn't immediately obvious. I am working on three home projects at the same time as being under pressure at work to finish ahead of schedule because... government!
