What OriginalGriff said makes sense. If your new idea is exciting, plugging away on something that has become tedious will be a chore. You're beholden to no one but yourself, so follow whatever path appeals to you!

This is a hobby. Maybe I should re code it in VB.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Soo much things to write, so little time..
honey the codewitch wrote: but that idea may mean two weeks of immersion in something unrelated, which if it works, may make the above project - not obsolete, but in need of retooling.
Imagine waiting until next year; the longer you wait, the more it grows, the more tedious the retooling becomes.
Can you cut down the two weeks to the bare bones, to see if the concept works?

I don't think so. The two weeks is learning curve. The reason I won't need more after I see what works is because I already have the cradle to drop the engine into once it's running.
I just have to bolt everything up. I've been waiting for this for a couple of years.

Which is harder to estimate than writing code

Then grab the opportunity! Also, it is not abanoning, it is putting stuff on hold, to make better stuff after that.

Congratulations to everybody on there: Feature Competition Winners List[^] (except me, of course - I'm only there because I have a good Fermented Sunflower Seed distributor).
Beware all! Sean has been seen shopping for a new Mankini ...

Now, the real test: Sean delivering the certificate in person, dressed in a Mankini (with nipple tassles when cold).
Check your rep as well - IIRC it adds 1000 rep points as well.

Tap / click on your rep score in the top right of any page, and it'll show you you most recent events history - that should include the event. (It hasn't worked for me for years as the SQL query times out due to the sheer number of events involved in my history)

It used to have a counter on it, and I was waiting to see if it overflowed at some point. Not so far, it currently says 79,868 messages.
I don't use 'em: I work from the emails instead.
