But I could probably still run my Perl code from 15 years ago, while anything built in Python refuses to run after each minor version upgrade in a dependency far, far away.

Delphi was great for the time.

What did TEML.exe do?

Hasn't Matt been nominated for Trump's cabinet?

Sorry, it does make sense. It's is different from PIN et al.

La Spaziale Mini Vivaldi - bought it ages ago when we didn't have kids and could spend time and money on these things. :-)

A dosing ring can help. A nice one from metal is 10 Euro.

We are moving into a new flat and I have high hopes that the dark concrete look of the new kitchen will hide the mess I always leave behind when making coffee.

Your grind is intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Do your manage to tamper that pile of coffee down without spilling half over the rim?

It exist. Canon EcoTank inkjet. Super reliable, super cheap, good quality.

Was using brother laser printers for many years, but this one is even better.

Back the few gigabytes were 50% of your harddisk.

pile of old suits

Bad: None of my suits from 10 to 15 years ago fit me anymore.

Good: I apparently didn't have to wear a suit in a long time.

Time to clean everything out.

Yes, medium-sized-family-transportation was basically a solved problem with the often ridiculed minivans. Gone from all car makers now. We still have a Grand Picasso, but I hope to get rid of the car completely, as we move more into the city center now and have better public transport + car-sharing.

LOL, we were overruled as well. When we were travelling on our boat was the only time, where we could convince them to go with a small plastic tree.

LinkedIn sucks, but not because of recruiting messages.

I always thought that was a bit more south near Almeria / El Ejido. And that is why they have a million greenhouses there.

We spent a winter there with the family. Wonderful.

Love southern Spain.

Also have a nurse as a wife. When the kids were small we mostly managed to do the holidays on time by switching around shifts. We are now slowly relaxing that, but the 7yo put his foot down for christmas presents on the right day this year.

skill issues with C. :-)

mostly good library support for many things i need.

i did a similar system (similar only in: does a similar task) in Java at a previous company - even though the JVM is amazing these days, I hope to have better consistency without a GC trying to clean up my mess.
