Hocka's Coder Application

[Hocka]

Ckey/BYOND Username: Hocka

Discord Name: Hocka#1201

Position Being Applied For: Coder

Past Experiences/Knowledge: I had very small stints (mainly just different games using lua from the top of my head). All of my experience in DM - and the majority of my coding experience overall - stems from all the PRs I've made to Aurora, listed in the field below. Mostly small bugfixes and minor tweaks or QoL changes with one or two larger PRs sprinkled in there.

Examples of Past Work: Here is a link to all of the PRs to Aurora I have authored.

My main man Hocka, AKA Ninja Main, AKA Special Forces, AKA IRA Mechanics, AKA I've-gotta-get-serious-before-Arrow-puts-me-in-the-dungeon-again.

I have been helping you code ever since you started I think? And your progress has been not only very quick, but very effective. The can PR didn't even need much rewriting in review!

I support your application and I hope to see your name green.

With all the work you've done, I assumed you were an official developer for the longest time. I think this application is a longtime coming and you easily have a +1 from me.

I’ve had the pleasure of watching Hocka learn and progress as a coder. They don’t give up easily even when faced with a problem that halts their progress. Very open to collaborate and work with people. Goes out of their view to get feedback and ideas. Very easy going with people.

 

I could go on but I feel this summarizes Hocka well enough. +1

Hocka has always been a great pal and we coded afew things together and we brainstormed for a while, we've been coding on/off and talking about things ever since Skulls programming lectures that we attended together. I think they have what it takes ?

I mistook Hocka for someone else, but I still very much think they have what it takes, the things on this that actually happened aren't striked through.

+1 from me.

Working with Hocka has been a pleasure and Matt and I totally didn't pressure him into making this app.

While his technical knowledge isn't as robust as other devs (except me, marble-brain), he possesses the drive to learn and create. He is not afraid to take on larger PRs (such as his makeshift can grenades), nor is he afraid to ask for advice from more experienced devs. He would fit well in a team setting and would only benefit from being able to work closer with the dev team as a whole. His contributions speak for themselves. He's quick to fix any bugs or make any changes that are brought to his attention and I think he would be an excellent addition to the dev team.

I absolutely support this application.

They have retired so I'll move this application into the archives.
