Farewell
(For those who don&#x27;t know, Byuu is a member here and will likely see comments in this thread.)<p>Hi Byuu. You don&#x27;t know me, but I&#x27;ve been a fan of your work since the early days of bsnes. I&#x27;ve also seen at least some of your &quot;detractors&#x27;&quot; criticisms, while lurking. (My &quot;favorite&quot; was that you don&#x27;t know enough math to emulate the 3D graphics of the N64, because you didn&#x27;t stay in school. I didn&#x27;t know they taught how to write SNES emulators in school either... Maybe I was sick that day.)<p>Anyway... Please don&#x27;t be too hard on yourself. I think you&#x27;re more mature than most(?) of your critics, and more importantly, you&#x27;ve made several comments and actions that make me think you have a genuine desire to self-improve.<p>Social graces seem to come more naturally to some people than others. The rest of us have to work it out for ourselves. You&#x27;re a smart person, so I know you can do this if you devote the time to it. Of course, thinking of yourself as smart tends to be an obstacle, and the journey tends to start where you least expect it.<p>If you&#x27;ll allow me to give a word of caution, avoid distractions. Spend some time by yourself pulling back from people online, and not writing code either. There are problems in life that no amount of code can help. If you really want to solve this, don&#x27;t get too caught up in exploring Tokyo either. :)<p>I&#x27;m sorry if bsnes&#x2F;higan hasn&#x27;t made you happy, but if you still have some energy left, I know you can find a way to get what you really want out of life.<p>Thanks for your incredible effort, and godspeed.
