Hi! I'm ~_ on tilde.club (which username I think technically breaks Unix standards) and @_ on Twitter. 5 years ago I managed to update my Tilde blog every day for 36 days before…well. But in any case, I updated it http://tilde.club/~_/ today! 

In other worlds, I help run Meh.com. Before that, I helped run Woot.com. Way before that, I helped run Geeklife.com, which, not coincidentally, looked almost exactly like what my Tilde Club blog looks like.

It's a surreal feeling to look back at something that was designed, in some ways,  to look back at something. Is there more of a story to the transition of ownership and what's happening now? (Sorry if I missed it in the rush of exciting new emails, I'm not fully caught up yet.)

Wow, I can't believe tilde club launched *5 years* ago, way back in 2014!

What's so weird about that is that 2010 is also 5 years ago, as is 2006.

And I'm sure I speak for many of us here when I say that I still have
very, very fond memories the *real* old days!  Circa 2000/2001, both of
which occurred exactly 10 years ago.

Anyway, nice to see you all again!

Regards,
Ryan
