Joe and Dave discuss the progress of their respective projects, delving into the challenges, successes, and failures of being commercial software developers, periodic game developers, and general technology enthusiasts.

In some ways we’re all dealing with the same issues, and in others we’re dealing with a problem space uniquely our own.
