Something I wrote recently to put a smile on my face after a couple of tough weeks doing cold outreach. If it makes another person smile, it was time we’ll spent.

I think it would be handy to show what sloc is (spire lines of code). I had to look it up since I'm used to just loc and I could not get my brain to figure out the s this morning.

Apologies for the confusion. I hope the ambiguity didn’t detract too much from your enjoyment.

Maybe I could sneak an in there for SLOC like I did for CSP.

I'm really curious where you found "spire lines of code". I can't find anything for that in a google search. What does that mean?

TMI: I'm stressed, in pain, behind on work, tired from caring for my partner, and I have a constant headache because my short range work glasses broke forcing me to use a much older pair. You made me smile and laugh, so I'm grateful for you today. Thank you.

Keep your head up man try to find something to do just for you today

Hey thanks for the thoughts, you're pretty great you know?

In good news, my new glasses got delivered today so I'm able to eliminate that literal and figurative headache :)

That’s great news re: the glasses — headaches are horrendous!

I think the number of badges in the README also need to be included in the formula for Q.

An astute observation! More badges being more vain than less, should that push up or down one’s Q-quotient?

Push up, obviously! I mean, more badges is always better... right?
