   I feel quite down today. 
   It was the first time in ages that when I started walking to work, I thought "I don't want to go to work today"

     I don't feel like doing anything really.  I don't want to stay at home. I don't want to get laid.

     I don't want to watch TV, I don't want to sit in the sun. Everything just feels like too much trouble, but I have this terrible feeling that time is running out, and everything I am is just falling away from me, like sand out of my hands.

   I haven't posted anything from https://www.perforce.com/careers in a while because I haven't gotten much feedback about the posts. We have 10 (or 12 depending on how you could) positions: 3 in England (it says UK, but they are basically in London), 5 in Minneapolis, and 2 in what is essentially Oakland, CA. Most of them are technical positions, but we do have 3 entry level sales positions: https://www.perforce.com/careers/open-jobs?gnk=job&gni=8a7883a861976b8501619a0d66e34efd (this is where you get the 2 extras), and a Payroll Analyst position. A bachelor's degree is required for the entry level experience, but it's truly entry level: no experience required. Let me know if you have any questions about the positions. None of them are on my team, but I can find out details, and of course tell you what I know about the company.
   
   We do have a fair amount of BSD-licensed stuff, and we do have git tooling. There's definitely a lot of proprietary stuff though.

    “GitHub Business Cloud” has got to be one of the most Microsoft-sounding phrases I’ve ever heard and they haven’t even been officially acquired yet.

    @craigmaloney it's interesting that so many people have picked Broken Hymns as their favorite track on https://hypnoticdirgerecords.bandcamp.com/album/iris -- The first four minutes seem to drone on forever. It's the only place I can identify as a weakness on the album.
    
    As somewhat of an aside, something must be going on with my Last.fm scrobbling on my home laptop, because there's no way I've only listened to Altars of Grief 16 times...maybe 16 times all the way through Iris, but even that seems low.
    
    But anyway, it has taken many times through the album before I even identified that spot as a weakness.

      Cake's The Distance features essentially rapped vocals, and stands out from the rest of their catelog in that way. Much of their other work features horns extensively, and has, as edythemighty put it "some of the best bass lines"
      
      I guess, you can think of them somewhat like if Primus was a pop band. They are quirky like that.
