       One of those weeks where I need to deal with cross-compiling cgo, write some kernel patches, make bazel happy, figure out why gazelle is unhappy, work out what Yocto's doing now, and also write strategy docs. I do actually and genuinely enjoy my job a great deal.

       @mjg59 Brian Stableford said something similar about deciding to switch to a writing career during a long night in the lab.

       @mjg59 and after that, you'd have spent the rest of your career telling others to remove the ovaries from pregnant fruit flies.

       @mjg59 Good luck with bazel, and you find me on irc if you have annoying yocto questions :)

       @mjg59 considering the number of fruitflies in my kitchen maybe I’d have still benefited from your work in that alternate universe :)
