Do you have some kind of subconscious awareness of interests you already have or know you eventually will take deep dives into at some point in life? (self.asklemmy)

I mean like awareness that, just under the surface, there are deep explorations waiting for the right time and place to emerge; things you've set aside or placed on the back burner but will tackle eventually/many you already have tackled.

Are you deeply self aware of these interests like some kind of list? If so, are these interests deeply connected in your mind to your past explorations and interests like some kind of road map or branching tree structure of thought?

Reverse Engineering Software.

It's been on my bucket lists for ages, but I never found the time. I've stuck my thumb into numerous tech pies, but I've never finished a crack me. I've done binary patching to skip bunches of code to call other code, but that's not quite the same.

Metal casting.

I have some steel and aluminum cans and a 3-D Printer. I'm good at blender, FreeCAD, and tweaking prints, but I haven't setup a foundry to make some solid metal parts. Yet. But I'm pretty sure I want to.
