@saramg amazing! I think when I first saw that (20 years ago!?!!! Gulp) I thought it was one of the funniest things I'd ever seen..!

Hiring a software engineer in their late 40s:

Pros:
* Understands your stack better than you do after glancing through the repo for five minutes.
* Will rewrite said stack 2x as fast, and half as buggy if you let them.

Cons:
* Gives zero fucks.
* Knows we're not *really* like family here.
* No, seriously, absolutely zero fucks given.

Do not cite the deep magic to me, product manager, I was there when it was written.

@saramg will probably know better than doing a big-bang rewrite instead of incremental refactor/rewrite.

Gives some F***s about professional pride & achievement, but seeks no family in an organisation that will discard them like an old dish-rag the second it suits their (budget-saving) purposes.

Y'all, America desperately needs to embrace the metric system.

Fer reals.

Brain is back to doing the PTSD things because evidently it's a day ending in Y.

Lord, give me the strength to remember who the assholes are, and the restraint to spare the innocent.

@saramg It is also a battle that requires allies.
