Mine looks a little like that. It's my job though. Everything's on GitHub.

Mexico does that! It doesn't look super common but it's a thing.
I think the technologies are pretty bubble based. We are 80/15/5 Mac/Linux/Windows and it's been 15 years since I worked on a software team that's thats mostly windows. But I talk to them from time to time. But if anything Mac feels underrepresented compared to my bubble.
I admit I'm probably biased in favor of believing the survey is representative. I work on one of the databases.
Speaking of databases, I don't work on SQL Server but can see the appeal. It implements a huge array of features and it's documentation is pretty good. Folks have told me it's a lovely database to use.
I'm with you. Words change.
There are still good southerners. But it's hard sometimes. I still live here but I'm weary for my kids. It's fine for now.
I wish you peace with your family. Whatever that means.
I downloaded google lense a while back to identify a mushroom. It was pretty and I was curious. After installing and taking the picture it replied.... "Mushroom."
The second image said false widow's death wish or something metal as hell.
I used gerrit and zuul a while back at a place that really didn't want to use GitHub. It worked pretty well but it took a lot of care and maintenance to keep it all ticking along for a bunch of us.
It has a few features I loved that GitHub took years to catch up to. Not sure there's a moral to this story.
When someone is having a computer problem I ask them to restart first. Not because I think they don't know to do it, but just in case. Some people don't know. Sometimes people forget. Obvious advice is useful sometimes.
I think all those are a little true. But I'm mostly guessing. I'm happy to change my mind if anyone knows better.
Either way, these folks are my hero.

It's hard. I love Harry Potter. I love Ender's Game. But their authors hate the people I love. Not personally. They don't know them and hate them anyway. It makes me sad. I want to share those books.
But I guess it's better to share books by people who don't hate my friends. I'll always have Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. I've been sharing The Golden Compass with my kids lately.
Harry Potter was good. But I can live without it in my life. I think I will keep sharing Ender's Game though.
Good for them!
Yeah! Every place I saw that did it seemed quite different from the US. I just thought it was neat that there are places trying this.
