        @dharmik required that you fix two bugs. I think I must have fixed two bugs from the bug tracker, and then chose one of the GSoC projects and wrote a proposal.

        My GSoC was successful in the sense that my mentor and I did some work on the guidelines in Inkscape. Was able to get some understanding of the codebase. Unfortunately, by the time the project ended, the code was no where ready to being merged, and I went into full time university. I was not able to regularly contribute to Inkscape after that. Ideally we should have chosen a project that could be merged within two months.

        My mentor was nice and supportive. Had a great experience overall. Learnt a lot. I think I was the first person to build Inkscape with clang++. Made a small patch that allowed Inkscape to be built with that compiler.

        I definitely would like to contribute to Inkscape some day...

          i love open source, but hate the contributors who do it for the name sake of it. if there's a organization whose products you use and either want to know the workings of it and can contribute it. certainly go for it. but not for the tag of open source.

                    i really like be drunk by charles baudelaire that talks about similar ideas.

                    You have to be always drunk. That’s all there is to it—it’s the only way. So as not to feel the horrible burden of time that breaks your back and bends you to the earth, you have to be continually drunk.

                                        when it comes to text-based social networks, it's almost always unsolicited and obvious that when someone asks a question, they expect a viewpoint. but when instagram influencers or creators ask something, i’m left wondering—did they actually want to know, or was it just engagement farming? or a rhetorical question they’re posting to post.

                                                                  but on what? wine, poetry, or virtue, as you wish. but be drunk.**
