I worry that Putin will be backed into a corner, and nuke a city in Ukraine as a warning, and start us on a path that leads to a flash outside my window, and moments to live. (Odds of that, < 1% I hope) I'm finally out and about thanks to a new pair of glasses, after spending months waiting for the results of my retina repair, it's great to be free. Folks here don't seem to understand the power of tools that can directly maniupulate the abstract syntax tree, and just give you your source code back as a "view", one of many. DION was a great idea, but they stopped short to worry prematurely about interoperability. Folks here also don't seem to understand that the world is about to deglobalize, and a lot of people will die. The US will be ok, but it'll suck to be in a country that imports most of its food or energy in a few years. Lots of thoughts.
