I spent 30 years writing CAD plugins in C++, mostly in Visual C++ 6.0. Then the industry collapsed. And I lost an intellectual lawsuit, my income dried up, and my marriage ended.
Now I live alone in a trailer in rural Canada — still writing code, still surviving, trying to crawl back.
This is a short video I made (50 seconds), documenting a quiet moment from this strange life. If you’ve ever hit rock bottom and kept going, you might relate.

Thanks for watching. Just sharing — not selling anything.
