in 1996 i tore my rotator cuff trying to throw my kick drum off the stage and into the audience at some all-ages show in winnipeg.

i mean, is using ANY_VALUE generally a bad idea and usually an indicator that you're placing way too much faith in your data instead of it's structure? sure, yeah.

Christian HergertI’m no longer employed by Red Hat.
As a result, any projects I maintained there as part of that employment should no longer be considered maintained by me, whether in that former capacity or otherwise.
