getting asked to do/join/keynote/answer things is often gratifying and humbling but man do they add up...

@bagder I've been asked to do the QEMU keynote at KVM Forum this year. I'm told your talks are an exemplar for use of data.

And now I'm sing a song from the 90's:
🎶🎵
No no,
no no no no,
no no no no,
no no

there's no limit!
🎶🎵

(Song: "No limit" from "2 unlimited")

🤣

Just watched it, lucky for me I have seen the MTV clip often enough that it doesn’t affect me.

@bagder I had a colleague who could have used that practice. He was very well liked, and very talented, but he let people walk all over him, and always ended up doing the most soul-crushing tasks for someone.

Unsurprisingly, he ended up burning out.

Be like Daniel, practice saying NO regularly!

@bagder You need an assistant. Or fake an assistant, so you don't need to feel the pressure from society.
