Plus it’s not like there’s anything happening in the first couple minutes. The more people who are in the meeting the more likely someone will be late anyway.

If it’s a customer meeting I’ll join 30 seconds early. If it’s an all hands or has big wigs in it then I’ll join 10 seconds early. Smaller internal meetings I can be 10-300 seconds late.

For the first few weeks post separation it was hard, mainly because I missed my kids. But for the two years we were separated I got in great shape, learned to be alone and love it, and had some great experiences.

It’s kind of like an Elk’s Lodge. Mainly it’s a bar with cheap drinks and cheap food where everybody has to pass a background check.

They have holiday events, but mainly it’s a place where there’s all sorts of people, a whole bunch of regulars, and where the bartenders know your favorite drink. There’s even a guy named Norm.

Andrew WK, come to us now in our time of need.

(Seriously, though, finding a local social club has done wonders for my social circle.)

People also used to sleep in houses made of sod with mud floors and wood fire heating. But we don’t now because that’s not very nice, despite it being incredibly energy intensive to light, heat, and cool a whole house and refrigerate parts of it and have thinking machines just to play games on.

I want cars to be luxurious and fashionable but not necessary. I think it will lead to cars that look and drive better, and fewer people on the roads will make driving more fun.

The first date I went on after separating from my ex was probably a government agent. She didn’t have a picture on her profile, didn’t send me one until an hour before we met, and described her job as “analyst for the State Department.”

Quite a few people buy cars just because they need to get places and there’s not good alternatives. Otherwise why would cars like the Sentra or CRV exist? Just making it so those folks don’t need to buy one would do a lot to make cars more luxurious and fashionable.

It’s like rain on your wedding day

I’m a big fan of screen because it will let me run long-running processes without having to stay connected via SSH, and will log all the output.

I do a lot of work on customers’ servers and having a full record of everything that happened is incredibly valuable for CYA purposes.

People like this are why I support walkable communities and convenient, free mass transit.

I’d be totally okay with that, as long as he attempted necromancy
