A readme file for Dylan Araps from 3 days ago saying "have taken up farming" and the github page for neofetch has also been archived. Good for him I guess.

At some point every professional computer person - programmer, sysadmin, whatever - will seriously consider piling all their computers into a big pile, lighting them on fire, and moving to the country to start a new life making things with their hands
When does it happen? I'm 53, and still obsessed with software development and technology in general. Moving to the country sound like it's nice and quiet, but too far away from urban things I enjoy.
Oh don't get me wrong, 99% of the time I love my career and 15 years in I still get a kick out of crafting code to make the stupid little machines do what I want.
The other 1% of the time - a couple of days a year - I get home at the end of the day with a profound sense that these machines are driving me slowly mad
