Barry RowlingsonWell that's my career wrapped up. Pint anyone?
Sean Gillies@geospacedman cheers!
Wait, really?
Atanas@geospacedman @sgillies Cheers!
@geospacedman Wow! Good for you.
@geospacedman congratulations! Good for you! What are you going to do with yourself now? Please report after a few months. Seriously. Asking for a friend.
@AtanasE Plan is to live off my severance payment, pension, savings, and do this "enjoy life" thing people talk about. What's it like? (Also, will do consulting and training for £££).
🌎 Don Meltz@GeoDon @geospacedman It is though. Because unlike a job that you have to go to, consulting in retirement you don't have to do. At least this is what my friend told me, the one who has been thinking about retirement.
You do it if and when you feel like it. It's like a hobby that you get paid to do.
Ian Turton@geospacedman all the best for your future plans, we should catch up at foss4guk unless you are going to Roumania or Japan
@ianturton Good idea! I'll put an expenses request in.. ah, flaw in my plan there...

Dirk Eddelbuettel@geospacedman More like "we need a brewery to celebrate this!". Sincere congratulations though!
Chris Newton@geospacedman Wish you all the best. Never met but I definitely owe you a drink for all the times your stackexchange (memory may be failing me) posts helped me out in the past. 🍻

@defuneste Do people go to conferences any more or do they just send their AI agents?
@geospacedman depend of the skill.md you are using. you know this field is so fast, we should have conference for agents 
@geospacedman @defuneste This here is my conference and you are the people I want to confer with.
