The Expense Trackers Conclusion
Several months ago, I had expressed wanting to get a handle on my expenses cause I have no real budgeting techniques. After downloading all my statememts, I embarked on a journey to make my own expense tracker in Python. I had a pretty good start with a good concept and the database was fast with DuckDB.
Of course, life happens and I got more focused on the pick a gun and some recent career shifts, the expense tracker was not getting any love. However, my problem still persists. I was watching some video with Linus Torvalds and the speaker opened that he had made Linux in the 90s and git was created in 2005. He was asked that it’s been too long since he made something impactful, so when is he gonna release the next big thing? His answer was a hopeful one for developers at large. He had created his projects because he had problems and no solutions existed for it so he solved it himself. Linus, like other people who are lazy, hopes for other people to solve his problems and he hasn’t felt a need to create something.
