Build a solid, working system out the gate: nobody notices.
Build a buggy mess and then fix it later after everyone experiences the pain of using it: you're the hero.
Visual scripting is objectively terrible in 99.99% of cases. This is the hill I will die on.

Man, C is so much simpler and more fun to program in than C++.
It’s so ugly. It looks like a 90s inflatable plastic chair
friends, full disclosure: i have ZERO recollection of what we talked about when we recorded this. But I was hanging with Alan and Syrenne so I'm sure I had a good time. Go listen and be entertained? Educated? Who's to say, I guess. Go listen.
