You know it must have been stressful when you were compelled to list your desserts in order. Now that we're almost in June, does it feel like the deal happened

You know it must have been stressful when you were compelled to list your desserts in order. Now that we're almost in June, does it feel like the deal happened a million years ago? I know when stressful things happen and time passes, it always feels like it was so long ago even when it was only a month or 2 back. It was a pleasure having you on a few years ago in the Running in Production podcast: https://runninginproduction.com/podcast/105-tinypilotkvm-lets-you-remote-control-your-server-from-your-browser https://runninginproduction.com/podcast/105-tinypilotkvm-let...

Hey Nick, good to hear from you again! >You know it must have been stressful when you were compelled to list your desserts in order. Haha, that's true, but I also get more excited than the average person about desserts. >Now that we're almost in June, does it feel like the deal happened a million years ago? I know when stressful things happen and time passes, it always feels like it was so long ago even when it was only a month or 2 back. Yeah, I hadn't thought about it, but you're right. We're only about six weeks out, but it feels like it happened six months ago. It was funny during due diligence, I was really stressed out, but I could already tell that I'd look back on it and wonder why it was so stressful. At the end of the day, it's mostly just preparing reports and answering questions. I think the feeling that's hard to recall is that even though the reports I was creating weren't that complicated, they were stressful because the stakes always felt so high. I was always so worried about making errors and messing up the deal or opening up myself to liability claims after closing. >It was a pleasure having you on a few years ago in the Running in Production podcast For me as well! It was fun to chat about TinyPilot's stack and tooling.

  Thanks a lot. Realistically as things currently stand, probably not but if something pops up in a way that changes things to where it makes sense then absolutely. The conversations were the best part and I still want to do that.

I loved your podcasts, Nick - as a tech recruiter with zero tech background, you really helped me better grasp what my clients/candidates actually do. Any plans to get back into it?

  Hi, thank you. Currently no plans but I do plan to keep the site up in case things change in the future.
