   I'd be interested to know what you guys have cooking up if anything, even projects just designed to learn from would interest me So anything good?

   I just finished the SQL course on codeacademy. Havent really done anything or have plans for anything with it but it was pretty interesting.
   
   Other than that I am working on learning R. Its a statiscally oriented language. Right now I am working with a bit of code that generates 6 numbers using the yarrow stalks method (different divisions and additions of different sets essentially). Im being a lazy fuck right now but maybe ill post it in time.

   Nice, what purpose did you have in mind when setting out to learn SQL? Do you want to be able to build a database or was it to get a better understanding of it for use in SQL injection? Also, sure if you make any progress with R or have a fun project to share i'd love to see.

   Kinda both. I needed to get a better handle on understanding how to build and work with a database and how the language works as a whole before jumping into SQL injection.

   That's a good way to go about it for sure.

   Working on a programming language, a lisp, may have posted about it before. It's implemented in javascript and is supposed to have very strong interop, the main focus is to give a better literal syntax for DOM manipulation and semantics for passive DOM state assertion/guarantees (I can go into more detail about this but it might be tedious without the context of making front-end systems at some scale). At the moment it's implemented as an interpreter and requires the full compilation pipeline to be loaded client-side to run. I've implemented a few of the special forms in a compiler as a proof of concept but I don't think I'll ever have time to bring the compiler up to feature parity with the interpreter and there are some language features (destructuring comes to mind, but even the module system poses problems) that I'm not sure how I would implement in a compiler (the compiler is very literal at the moment).
   
   The other project I'm working on is a computer implementation of the board game Yinch. Right now I'm just working through the logic of enforcing the rules and such but I'm working hard to decouple the presentation/input logic from the game logic because I want to make a fancy WebGL interface after I finish the rules and the super basic 2d presentation layer I have going now.

   I was working on a security program for android that could do a bunch of things but I've taken a break.
