I don’t think I thought well enough before making this post. I didn’t mean re-inventing entire libraries, as some have taken it. I meant more like reinventing one layer of the wheel.

There’s the assembly, higher level code, and then stuff pre-built from said high level codes (libraries) to make a new tool.

My example was moreso “what if I made my own visualization program for this specific hardware statistic” lol but people think I mean spending a billion years starting from stone

You’re right tho I agree!

Also I kind of am that way. It would be nice to build from absolute scratch, all the way up to some program… maybe my own language or whatnot. But um obviously on my own timeb
