I have been busy due to a flood of inspiration to work on projects. Pleasant, but also exhausting.

The only updates to arkaine has been to fix an issue with default arguments in the ParallelList flow tool. The reason for the freeze in development is an accidental startup.

How does one go “oops, I made a startup?” Basically, I decided to quickly develop a series of simple apps that utilized arkaine and would demonstrate its usage. Then combine them into a large post walking through the examples.

The very first one you saw a prototype for in an earlier post wherein I made a interview practice question generator. This was a simple script, but the results struck me as promising. Why not build a nice site around it so that other people can use it? And so started hiredcoach

I really liked what I started to see, and realized that this could actually be useful to people if offered as a service. So that’s what I’m aiming to do - try and build out a startup from it as quickly as possible. I’m at ~12 days of development effort. I had hoped to get it out in 2 weeks - 3 or 4 still seems a possibility.

I’ll post here when I launch and my initial thoughts. I temper my anxiety of startup launching with thoughts that the worst case is a nice line item in my resume upon failure.
