OK, If nobody's got a better idea, I'm opening a bottle of rakı!

Walk to the nearest shop selling good booze, and buy another bottle?

Ooooh, you don't know Sweden, I can tell.
SO much double standards when it comes to alcohol here. No shops open at late hours, I'm afraid...

Ah, what the heck, rakı isn't that bad, and it gives me an excuse to practise my Turkish... (all by myself)

That was a very disturbing email to receive, until I realized what conversation was involved!

In Sweden you learn to plan.
The problem is those people who overplan, if you get my spin.

Reminiscent of this[^], and other art projects involving punch-cards, going back over the years/decades (a midi timeline and a punch-card are conceptually the same thing).
Fun to see, but it gets old really quickly.

Sudden Sun Death Syndrome (SSDS) is a very real concern which we should be raising awareness of. 156 billion suns die every year before they're just 1 billion years old.

Even after almost thirty years I still get up excited at the thought of doing my job even though I do far less coding than I would really like. And why, I hear you ask, is that?
1: Get to work with some elephanting smart people - I get to learn stuff constantly.
2: Who doesn't love cutting code?
3: Get to play with computers all day.
4: Get to play with new technologies when they come out.
There are more but those are the core reasons, especially number 1: it's hard not to be impressed by the people around me.

This is probably going to come off sounding arrogant, but I assure you it isn't -- I wish I had that experience. For the most part, it's been the other way around most of my life. The exception was (and still is) when I work with hardware engineers. I've pretty much never had the experience of working with software engineers that I've been impressed by.

After looking at your articles, I'm pretty sure it'd be a miracle if there were two people like that in the same place. You'll have to get used to impressing others rather than being impressed by anyone.
