Where I've Been
silicone_milk:
I kind of disappeared after setting up some projects for myself (q3map2 executing on the GPU and my website).
The reason for this is I landed a full time job. I currently work at an IT consulting company. I handle enterprise level database administration, data analysis software development (think google analytics for MS SQL, MySQL, and Oracle databases), network security, and in-house software development (auto status reports on all active servers, ez-sync programs to get computers with fresh OS installs updated with necessary updates and necessary software before being connected to the internet, etc...)
So, yeah. I've been really busy. I also just moved in to a new place three weeks ago and I still haven't gotten around to hooking my desktop back up :P
Looking forward to pay-day so I can get my hands on a cintique 21ux :)

That's a bit of a departure isn't it? Going from a game developer into IT? Are you doing any game related stuff at all now?
silicone_milk:
Hm.. I suppose it is. ;D
I'm still doing game related stuff... just not as much nor as often.
I have a couple contracts to finish up at Chronic Logic and I'm not sure what's going to happen after that. I still dream of working for SquareEnix or Kojima Productions some day :)

this is another topic I previously missed *ratty bangs head on desk*
@ milk, good luck with your new job. my gf works in IT for a london insurance company heading up their help desk among other things. she's found it very stressful at times, I hope your job doesn't turn out like that.
silicone_milk:
haha no worries. It's not too stressfull. I just work with people from Peru and Mexico with really thick accents so communication breaks down at times.
They also don't listen to my suggestions. Such as the security measure that just requires us to connect to a machine at our shop then to our clients computers to encrypt our traffic to protect sensetive information. According to them it's "too complicated"
