Knowing

There are some bits of code
That... I just... know... won't work
Yet.
Not yet.
There's no point in testing
Linting
Uploading
Anything
Until I've passed that point
Where logically
... no... intuitively
It makes sense.
And it will work.
And I can have some amount of
CONFIDENCE
In the code I test.
Release.
Write.
And knowing that I know this
Is one of the greatest signs
That I know what I'm doing
And I can have some amount of
CONFIDENCE
In my ability.

GMScreen

GMScreen is a pet project of mine. Like all pet projects, it started out as a tool for myself. When running pencil-and-paper Role Playing Games, I often found that the tools I was using for notes, initiative order, and combat modifiers were just insufficient.
