  • Hi! Friend of mine just came back from PAX and grabbed a copy of a new book that mentioned zelda universe in the foreword... made me remember browsing that site a ton back in the day, and how it linked me to Zelda Comic and the original forums. Those were the good ol days! Anyone browse these forums anymore? I'm working a…
  • Haha, I've never played MTG or Hearthstone but I've heard both were great. I dunno, witnessing so many kids collect SO MANY pokemon cards in the 90s left a bad impression on me as far as collectible card games, but I'm sure I'd get sucked in as soon as I tried it. I enjoyed school while I was an undergrad but I am glad to…

  • Double post: second episode wasn't as bad as I remembered. Natalie Portman is still my role model

  • What's uuuuuup. I've been living in my house for a couple months now, and the cats now give their full approval of the move. Work has been downright crazy the past 6 months or so, but I recently got a promotion to "data engineer" so it seems to have paid off! Plus I get to be in the "engineer" boat now which is really…

  • Why hello there!
  • Nice, congrats!! That's exciting. Did you end up printing a customized ring for her?
  • I promise to geek out and enthusiastically explain the backstory if I ever come across someone playing the game stumbling across the tomb stone. I will be the superior gamer in such a situation..... Yessss.... It will be glorious.
  • As long as, ya know, you've already paid for rent. That's the kicker

  • I looooove yoooouuuuuuu!!!!!
  • Mooooooove soooouuuuuthhhh
  • Lol. I watched the disney movie Princess and the Frog with some friends last weekend, at one point the main character gets turned down from her dream property and is told "Oh about your offer, someone came in and put in a higher offer in cash to close tomorrow." Her response was, "But I worked so hard...". Made me tear up…

  • "Spend some time in weather that is below 0 for a while with wind chill factors making it feel even colder. It puts 50s into a completely different perspective. I was pretty happy to see 30 degrees and higher lately. It's quite warm!" The pumpkin field scenario sounds lovely and I suppose I can understand the desire for…
  • I'm buying a HOUSE! It feels very grown-up :D It'll have a guest bedroom AND an extra room for whatever we want! Sort of on the small size for what we're paying, but the Austin housing market has been beyond ridiculous the past 2 years and it's only getting worse-- a semi-decent-looking one story house in some…

  • "I could really go for some more of them 50's to be honest." Wat. But... why? What could possibly be better about 50 degree weather over 70 degree weather? Speaking of which it was a gorgeous weekend here, went hiking in shorts and it was lovely.
  • D'aww, so many wonderful smiles :) Your adventures are too cute Mario!!! I need to get out and do more, you looked like you had way too much fun in 2014 :)
  • Holy shit it's Noobity!! 15 years since inksandwich... good god. Glad I can still come back here and talk to at least a handful of folks still lurking around :) I can totally understand having a facebook page instead of a full website-- most businesses would need to hire a developer to not only build but maintain the site.…

  • If I didn't have cats that constantly demanded attention I would probably work from home more for that exact reason, but I've found that people are way less likely to lay on my keyboard at work than at home.
  • Not sure if I was born this way or I've just conditioned myself by always procrastinating school projects (probably a little bit of both), but I'm always most focused in the middle of the night and it has followed me into my career. I pull late nighters almost weekly at this point working on projects into the wee hours of…
  • Gah, that's how I felt when I flew to Australia. Good news is that every other plane I've flown in since was great in comparison! Seeing a new country is pretty magical though. I've been itching for an out-of-the-US adventure for a couple years now, haven't been able to find an opportunity where money and vacation time…
  • Ain't that the truth. I'd still be down for a meetup, regardless of how theoretical that might actually be.
  • Heeeeeey since I posted in the Love Sweet Love thread earlier, I'm curious-- what's everyone up to nowadays? I got that full time offer at the awesome job last September (RE: older post in this thread), still workin there to this day. It's still pretty amazing, although I'm not quite as ecstatic about the whole situation…

  • Guys..... I love you. Turns out bein a grown-up can be quite time consuming!! Worth the perks though, when things are goin good. It has now been a whole decade since I first joined Inskandwich and met quite a few of you crazy people... How time flies!!! And I still love ya. Hope things are going well, if you ever find…
  • I've always heard good things about Seattle! Except the weather. And the depression/suicide rate. ....Yeeeah... Other than that though, it sounds like a cool city! Good place for a tech job too, aw yeah tech jobs.
  • Hey look I'm famous! ...What do you mean you don't see me?? There's a picture of me right under the "Tech It Out" section! I'm the one watching the intense foosball game. ...Okay, so maybe not famous, but it's still pretty cool considering this page will probably have the most views with my picture on it than anywhere else…

  • I was also drunk when I posted that, but yes, bitter about the disconnect between academia and real world experience. Not only from my own experience but also from what I've heard about from other majors at the university I went to. The university I went to is also a big research school, so that probably has a lot to do…
  • You guys... you are being way too practical with what you learn from school. What, are you thinking professors are going to focus on something that would actually be valuable throughout your career??? HA! Nooo, nooo.... you just focus on bullshit academic/theoretical BS that will give you a good grade for no more than one…
  • Ha! Tanya, congrats on your upcoming colorful baby!! Can't believe Hannah is 2.5 now, that means Esmé is even older. Doesn't seem like that much time has gone by, but I suppose it has! I've heard video game programming can be miserable, what with the strict deadlines and all. I consider myself dev-lite since I mostly just…
  • I love my job, but I do spend a lot of my time there. Been trying to come home more since the boyfriend was saying after 8pm is not an appropriate time to get home when I have a 15 minute commute, buuuut it's tough sometimes! I have largely lost my presence on the internet. What's even sadder is I feel largely anti-social…
