I'm working on a macOS - it's not Mac OS X anymore - USB Video driver. This is by far the most complex driver that I've ever developed.
It works now, but only for a hardwired resolution and pixel depths. There are lots of other problems, the worst one being that it doesn't play nice with power management. There are vast quantities of "// TODO:" comments.
When I get it to beta - hopefully Real Soon Now - I'll be getting a huge paycheck. When it's completely finished, I'll get another one.
My client is a fabless semiconductor firm. They sell chips to manufacturers who sell finished products to end-users. Hopefully my whizzy new driver will enable them to sell lots more chips.
We're big in China.
I told my client about my mental illness. They were totally cool with it. But I haven't mentioned my experience with homelessness.
In other news, I have a mad crush on a barista, but as yet she doesn't seem to return my interest.

I wish you well--you've been a true inspiration to us this last while, and deserve all the rewards you've worked for, and more beside.
And may Fortune (or Destiny) also gift you with romance--I've been enjoying some the last few days, after a long dry spell, and it has been better than I recall...
