Adok/Hugi leaves the demoscene

category: general [glöplog]
I am now a professional programmer. Since I do not study any more, have no wife and no kids I would have plenty of time to invest in demo coding, yet I am not interested. I prefer playing Civilization IV - Beyond the Sword. As I stopped making Hugi in 2014 there is nothing left I do for the demoscene. So I say good-bye. I have always been more interested in the technical aspects of democoding, such as size optimizing. I am not an aesthetically inclined person and do not have the patience to work on a project for a long time until it looks good. I actually have a solid understanding of computer graphics but it is not my area of specialization. During my studies I focused on algorithms, logics and theoretical computer science. Now as a developer I am a specialist for algorithm design, code optimization and creative problem solving. In one of my past jobs I developed a mesh voxelizer along with a method that reads the data from an IFC file, thus allowing the import of complex 3D models. When I was making Hugi I was always doing it in the spirit of serving the scene. I hoped I have served the scene for long enough and that my altruism will lead me into Heaven.

your last act of altruism called 'sex is fun' will never be forgotten!
I misunread the term "Altruism" for "Autism".
Anyway, gald to see you go.

So did I. And I was like, ok, it explains a lot of things. But now I'm confused :)
Also, good luck on your carreer as a professional programmer.

That's that then.
The scene is officially "über" now.

This is not an airport, you can just go without a check-in or an announcement. May you have better success promoting eugenics and sketchy high iq stuff somewhere else. Or not.

it is normal to be not motivated in these covid days...
Good luck, dude.
Although, I am (almost) sure, you gonna be watching some demos... from time to time.

"Oho!" said the pot to the kettle;
"You are dirty and ugly and black!
Sure no one would think you were metal,
Except when you're given a crack."

"Not so! not so!" kettle said to the pot;
"'Tis your own dirty image you see;
For I am so clean – without blemish or blot –
That your blackness is mirrored in me."

Well, yes. I am aware of that, Garg.

I quite enjoyed reading some of your articles on logic, algorithmics and TCS. I hope you find time to keep publishing, even if unrelated to the demoscene. All the best.
I was wondering the other day if anyone still making diskmags?

Although the scene is based on binary stuff beeing a scener isn´t a 0/1 thing - you can always create a track, 256b or whatever release whenever you like to do so.

PC diskmags seems like a lost art.
