start an anonymous weblog
I guess it's worth doing. 1 year ago

It was fun for a while, but I stopped bothering. I already have a weblog with private family stuff and a more public one, but keeping things anonymous is annoying, and I suffer from a lack of interest in writing if I don’t know that anyone’s reading.

never work for Microsoft
Success! 1 year ago

Well, since I decided to quit the programming game for good, there’s no chance I’ll ever work for MicroSoft. So I am calling this task COMPLETE, even though, technically, the only way I can honestly mark it as complete would be if I died, and then, you know, there would be issues with internet connectivity.

Skydive
Not for me, thanks! 2 years ago

I saw a couple of articles recently about tragic skydiving accidents resulting in death. And sure, people die all the time from skydiving, and a great many more people skydive without incident. But for me it just really struck me, now that I’m a father, that I really can’t just do crazy shit like this whenever I want to. It’s a weird feeling, but I don’t mind it. It just means I won’t be skydiving for a while, if ever. So long, skydiving!
