It must be difficult having that pressure on you. I know a few people who have had similar experiences with family pressuring them into approved career paths. It's awful.

Have you considered changing careers now that you've proven yourself? With a resume like that you could probably do anything you like now.

I'm confused as well about the basics here. What sort of pricing structure is there? How are exisitng electrical providers involved? If I "buy" power from my neighbor, is the utility company informed or involved? They're still billing me for that energy. Is it a matter of being credited the difference?

This seems like the primary sticking point for a lot commenters in here. We all know what blockchains are and how they work. I need to know how the pricing structure works. This could be a really good idea if the financials make sense.

My parents were recently mortified when they found a drugstore receipt for condoms in my brother's car. He's in his late 20s and was engaged at the time. (Happily married now)

If I still lived with my parents, I would absolutely leave more of those receipts and others from the sex store nearby all over the place. I love my parents, but they lie to themselves about what their kids are up to, and I feel like it break the ice for more adult conversations about it.

I write C++ for work, and I'm quite comfortable with the language, but hesitant to pick Unity (above other engines) because I'd like my skills to be transferable.

What programming/scripting langues did you know before trying C#? Was it easy to pick up? Did you find any footguns the hard way?
