Ground floor of a new year.

Let's hear those New Year's resolutions people.

I'm setting intentions rather than resolutions, because 2020 was a strong demonstration of what happens to best laid plans.

Anyway, intention for this year is to acquire property, enjoy spending time with my family, and hopefully go to a drat restaurant before the end of the year.

Happy new year losers.

Cup 1 of the new year is pour over of Dark Matter Coffee's "High on Fire" blend which they made for the band High on Fire.

We're down to Costco's "medium roast" (which is just Starbucks, and is very much not a medium roast). Dire straights. Our coffee subscription service couldn't make it through holiday delays. I seriously need to make a run to the store.

This is more meta commentary on football so I'm putting it here:

College football looks so weird to me these days. I used to watch the hell out of it but have been pretty much exclusively NFL since 2015 or so. The players are slower so things work that look like they shouldn't and it's unexpectedly jarring.

Owns. I really need to get something like this. Every time I need to haul my tools I put them in a tote and it's not ideal at all. Having wheels would be great.

In other I'm officially old because I'm way too excited about it purchases I bought a couple non-stick pans today because I'm sick of poo poo always sticking to our old stainless ones.

Oh man last year we bought some scanpan pans without any rivets sticking out from the handle, totally smooth. Incredible difference.

Good for you man, for real.

My Grandma was a horrendous alcoholic when my Mom was young. Lots of vodka-related self medication to cope with an unhappy marriage in the 1950s. By all rights I shouldn't even know her, but like you she made a choice to save her own life. She's turning 90 in May and I couldn't imagine my family without her. Just a titan of energy and love, and just as huge for all the people she has helped in AA.

People like you and my Grandma help so many people just by being alive and being yourselves, so thanks for being here.

The numbers were already posted, but this is my first time on a computer with Excel this year, so here's the final post counts for the TFF 2020 Chat Thread top 30 posters.

The sum total of posts made by we top 30 is exactly 67% of the total number of replies (55,743 of 82,966 total), so this represents two-thirds of chat thread content.



Also it's in Bookman Old Style, so feel free to include this on legal briefs and whatever.

e: Also I made a joke in early October about C-Euro and I being neck and neck, and he edged me out by three posts, so we're nothing if not consistent over time.

Lol at Mel being 8th, when did he bail from the thread again? What a work rate.

Oh man did this chap the rear end of my programmers and even senior IT leadership. Every year - you submit your goals (professional, personal, education) all out and then you are measured against them in your annual review.

It got to the point where when had to meet with our executives to lock in our goals for 2020, we’d all meet beforehand so our guys would agree on the goals in the worlds most vague standards, so they weren’t screwed over when they came up short due to timeline or technology hang ups - which was happening ALL THE TIME!

It’s square peg round hole. It’s like when we’re switching to agile and my management flat out me to just reuse our contracts that were specifically tailored to waterfall methodology. It’s... impossible.

Well, if it cheers you up, somewhere out there is a consultant who has made a *lot* of money off of your company.

Exhausted. Angry. Beyond furious at the insane DC police apparatus that in normal times I commute through every weekday, that it would so transparently give up on this threat when I watched them beat the poo poo out of BLM protesters all summer. We as a society fork over so many of our resources to this police state and it can't even bother to stop an attack on its center of government.

It's tough to have hope for this country right now.

Wednesday was a sad day for America. Sports maybe now more than ever needs to be an outlet from the divide in this country. However #Phillies fans will not be happy with this news. The #Mets will be a better team in 2021, as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that'll be a home run. And so that'll make it a 4-0 ballgame. I don't know if I'm going to be putting on this headset again.

I'm still really loving mad about yesterday.

Same. I live here and feel loving violated, both from these maga types that we've had to put up with visiting and being shitheads for years and the apparently useless security state that has nevertheless constrained our lives for forever.

Like, you live in DC you put up with bullshit security theater all the time because everyone tells you it's necessary, and when an insurrection actually does happen while congress is in session they let them in the loving doors and then let them walk away, after spending the summer treating BLM protesters like they were fighting the Battle of the Bulge.
