@33MHz Yup. I’m super lucky to be in a spot like this, in general in life, let alone during a pandemic.
No doubt.
This allows me the privilege of being in a position to be able to donate and support others, which is also crazy lucky of a blessing.
And, I’m nearly back to “normal” healthy now, thankfully. My family is healthy.
I can even do a little exercise now without pain. Good stuff!
And, I love learning new stuff — it’s the looming deadline that worries me, ha.
3 days in on new gig, doing new-to-me language + libraries (not to mention new culture and, kind of, problem space). Having fun. At times, I think I’m all good. Other times, I’m sunk.
Lolz!
Either way, I’m learning, and I’m employed. So, all is good.
Yesterday was a good work day. Today was not. So I’m having an Old Rasputin [beeradvocate.com] for both days.
Freddie King often puts me in a good mood.

@Kabuku Yeah, I suppose so! I’ve been maybe 97% remote for ~8yrs. My wife’s company is set to go back to the office some time in April, at least as it stands right now.
She’s also co-chair organizing a conference for October, so that’ll be interesting.
@Kabuku Ha, yep. :)
If our household gets a check, I’ll be doling it out as large tips to delivery people or donating it.
My wife is still working, remotely now, and I start a new (remote, as usual) contract on Monday. So, we’re good.
@Kabuku For sure. I mean, I would have bought it anyway, but artists can’t tour right now. I’m looking at buying more merch.
I hope all the many people from restaurants, bars —and everybody else that can’t work from home— get the support they need, too.
@Kabuku Just saw it. Yeah.
I’ve never joined his IRC server, but I might give that a try. I’ll definitely be buying his album, of course.
@adiabatic Well, I’m no monitor salesman, but I think you have a reason in your pocket to get another one if you are otherwise so inclined. ;)
Ergonomics & balanced muscle development! 💪
@33MHz @sloanb I like this positive line of thinking.
Currently attending an online/remote Ruby user group meet up.
:)
One side observation is that I'm now wondering if the necks of people with multiple monitors (espeically 3+) are in better or worse shape at the end of a long day… 🤔
@33MHz Yes, you are right, I do need to get more done.
@Kabuku I’m glad you are doing well, and thanks!
@33MHz Sounds like you have a wonderful weekend planned. I hope your joint pain dissipates with haste!
My back / hip issue is maybe 50% less ouchy now, but my head+chest cold is probably 100% worse, so... 😅
How’s everyone else here doing? (Better than me, I hope! Tho’ I’m totally fine, these temporary annoyances aside.)
You gave up too much to turn back now. ⇄
