i got myself in the "i wish i were in a band still" mood

might have to dig out the guitars tonight?

hi i still secretly wanna be in an early 2000's pop-punk/emo group

i just discovered that Senses Fail made a spotify playlist called "emo night" thank's you know where i'll be

sucks that "the middle" is the jimmy eat world song everybody knows

sweetness >>>>>>>>>> the middle

.

i basically got to take a back seat and watch as a new(er) team mate took over a huge infrastructure migration on a project i mostly built.

i answered some questions, helped track down some bugs, but she did all the work and found the support she needed from our platform team on her own

and this huge thing is migrated now!

that's awesome to watch

it's really funny getting into engineering. the concept of "rockstars" "code ninjas" whatnot... even coming from a direction where you reject those ideas, it's still easy to feel like building is in some part a solo performance.

but honestly, after years of running solo, it's so much more rewarding to hand a thing off and see somebody else run with it. seeing people succeed is just so much better

have you ever:
time?

so i got rogue squadron running on my computer last night

i am kinda really excited about this, even though i hear the pc version is pretty buggy

it seems to work, i got through the first mission 💯
