It's been 38 days and 6 hours since my father passed away. I was let go from my internship during the last month we spent at the hospital. I went to the hospital in tears and poured my heart out to my father. He told me something I can still hear ringing in my ears: "If, when I took the university entrance exam, I had the opportunity to get into the best university in the country, believe me, I would study day and night to get in. I'd find some way, study hard, and get in. Your profession matters so much. Having a good profession is crucial for your family's comfort and future." Those words became a pearl earring in my ear. After saying this, he kept giving me advice to pull me away from the uncertain path I was on.

And now he's gone. For the past two years, I've been studying electrical and electronics engineering in my country (Turkey), and this semester I noticed that my interest in computer engineering has surpassed everything else. So I've decided to transfer, and with God's permission, I'll be switching to computer engineering next year — but I still don't know how I should navigate this field. I don't know which technologies I should learn. There are times when I even wonder whether I should switch at all. My fears have started to grow that by the time I graduate, AI will have replaced everyone. [1]

If my father were here, I'd ask him. He'd find the best path for me, and I'd trust that it was truly the best. But he's not here anymore, and I'm alone. Along with my family, we're carrying on with our lives.

This summer, my father was going to find me an internship — that's what I kept telling myself. I had no worries at all back then, but right now I feel like I'm drifting in a void, and I need someone to show me a path. I thought maybe someone on this forum could point me in a direction. My father's words keep echoing in my ears, and I want to have a good profession, just like he said. Maybe you can help me.

Since 2017, each time I finish a book I save a single quote from it. I like revisiting them sometimes, for example at the end of the year or just. This collection is available as plain text on my website.

So I thought it may be fun to ask the agents to port this into a 3D library where I can actually walk around and pick up the books, and I think it sort of worked! I'm not sure this is that interesting for people other than me – those are my books! – but I just find it really cool that you can just do one-off random things like this with minimal effort.

Only available on desktop, since movement is WASD + mouse.
