able to have a good laugh at the program (and how poorly I've implemented a text
to speech algorithm).</p>
<h3>Actual questions I haven't been asked by anyone ever.</h3>
<strong>"Jungle Horse"?</strong>
<p>Yes.</p>
<strong>What about Hillary?</strong>
<p>The original version of Jungle Horse supported Hillary, but I simply have
not had enough time to feature both presidential candidates. It takes a lot
of effort to gather and curate all of the required samples to power a TTS
engine, and as you might imagine from the <em>amazing quality</em>
of Jungle Horse-generated audio. Factor in the engineering work required
and bam... negative hours in my schedule remain.</p>
<strong>Why is this so late into the election?</strong>
<p>I spent too many weekends having wild parties (such lies ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)).</p>
<strong>How did you make this?</strong>
<p>I spent several weekends typing various letters, numbers, and characters
like "=" and "}" on my laptop keyboard.</p>
<p>For a more direct answer&mdash;people I know will groan at my
evangelism&mdash;I wrote this mostly in Rust, a systems programming language
I've completely fallen in love with. If you're an engineer, you should give it
a try. Rust makes a great addition to any toolbox.</p>
<p>For any kids and students considering a future in software engineering, you
should know that programming lets you do absolutely magical things on a daily
basis. It also makes an excellent career.</p>
<h3>Donations Welcome!</h3>
<strong>Future projects and stuff.</strong>
<p>I have so many ideas for projects! Tetris projected onto the Georiga
Pacific skyscraper, an interactive time travel film with hundreds of branching
plotlines, a video game with a blind protagonist rendered entirely with audio...</p>
<p>I spend my own time and money on making stuff, but if you enjoyed this, it'd be
awesome to get something back. No worries if not. I'm happy just knowing I made
somebody (you...?) laugh or smile.</p>

<strong>Collaborations</strong>
<p>If you're an Atlanta-area artist or hacker, you should totally meet me for coffee
at Krog St. Market someday. My only hobby outside of listening to terrible hipster
music is that I like to make stuff. Working solo is fun, but collaborators might be
neat too. (Word of warning: while I'm not a vampire, I may or may not be a night owl.)</p>
<p>So does anybody want to hack on a late start into the November

(And can we write it in Rust?)</p>
