Damn. Spot on. Not a farm, but a proper house in a rural area with outside space enough for various crafting projects. And a garden. And a cat.

Im dead tired of living in a 5x3 firstfloor apartment with a single window and an outside area under tight control by a HOA. Teenage me enjoyed cramped, spartan living arrangements. Now if only I had money enough.

Something is missing from the farm picture... oh right, the company actively collapsing in the background because "code maintainability is less of a priority than cost".

I'm moving to a few acres this weekend, assuming everything goes well. We got plans for a giant garden, a duck run, and fruit trees. This meme is all truth.

Being fully remote is a great gig if you can swing it.

Disclaimer: farming is not a hobby and you need expertise in a broad range of fields, including chemical, technical, administrative. And the job has a high failure rate (if you don't have the expertise) and death rate (big machines and chemical processes).

In reality I see myself in the exact same position I'm currently applying for. To impress you I make something up I think you want to hear, but not too far away from what I'm applying for.

Was about to make this joke myself.

Honestly the appeal of just running off and living in the middle of nowhere without any responsibilities sounds quite nice. ~~Also getting a fursuit~~.

In the Pulitzer prize-winning book "The Soul of a New Machine", Tracy Kidder writes about a microcode programmer having to deal with timing in nanoseconds. One day his desk was empty and there was a note on the monitor saying that he was going to live in a commune, and no longer deal with any duration shorter than a season.

A farm would be nice.

Still looking for someone else’s solution to solve a problem I haven’t yet encountered, I reckon.

Yes.

I don't get the jr sr part, is that referencing the age of the person in the comic or is it two people?
