@codinghorror You know, Jeff, we never met IRL, but you may be one of the most inspiring persons for me in the whole world. You're doing great so often that, even in my 50s, I use your words often and often. I don't know what else to say, but, keep believing in the dream.
@Riduidel this is an incredible compliment. Thank you. I will try my best, and I know you will too 💛
