Whenever I think about ideas for side projects, I get bogged down in the necessary guardrails for hosted services—things like session management, security, hosting, etc., which prevents me from starting most projects because I don't want to deal with those things. At that point, it's just work.

you’re fired. wait you’re rehired. email us a list of things you’ve done today wait forget it you’re fired again. come back your job was important. you’re fired. or hired. come in to the office. wait the office has no computers go home. we are the department of government efficiency.

Got paid what I consider to be a very high compliment today. One of my newer coworkers told me that I'm very good at making people feel welcome AND comfortable. That's how everyone should feel in the workplace. I know that's how I want to feel at least: welcome and comfortable.
