Yes, I agree completely. I'm pretty strong in creativity and program 
logic, but applied mathematics usually messes me up unless it's pretty 
straightforward. I'm an artistic hacker, but no scientist. Also 
programming while half-drunk is a skill all in its own. :)

I give credit when it's due. Too many in the forums and mailing lists 
don't care enough to even post their solution. They take, but don't 
give. I try to reward anyone who helps, in whatever way I can.

Most definitely. My project site is here:

It's not very updated. There are some updates here, which is where I 
really try to publicize my work:

My YouTube channel is here:

My weekly updates to my recent financier are here, which are a little 
tedious:
