    At that time if you could upload PHP code to an FTP and it connected to a mySQL database you were a pretty rare animal. I mean, this is not long after PHP became a thing at all. Mo…

    I love a good manifesto. I'm excited to read it over the weekend. The initial pitch appears to be in line with my interests. Big fan of the minimalism in the pitch.

    I have been trying to hook a client on a useful demo to get someone who is not me to spring for that big display. Lol. The portrait is like $300 though and it looks good on that.

    I'm fine with whatever. I'm getting to the point where I wish I was liquidated or vaporized in 2018. Shut off the power, tell me I have to live in the woods, take away my car, star…
