Mark Wielaard: New GPG key.
Finally created a new GPG key using gnupg. The old one was a DSA/1024 bits one and 8 years old. The new one is a RSA/2048 bits one. I will use the new one in the future to sign any release tarballs I might create. pub 2048R/57816A6A 2011-01-29 Key f...

heart and soul
Though I've yet to receive my red pill or my blue pill, I cannot let this eve pass without a formal farewell to the company I've called home since college. Just the other day I came across my original Sun badge while cleaning out an old box:
Sun was 6. I was 22. I chose Sun because it seemed like networking might be important for the future. We were battling IBM, DEC, and HP, and feared that Windows NT would be the death of Unix. Apple's future seemed bleak. Let that be a lesson to anyone who thinks they know what the future holds in this business.
In addition to being a phenomenal place to be an engineer, Sun had tremendous heart and soul. Thanks, Scott, for creating that. I will miss it.
