Hi gang, super excited for tilde 2.0

I’m Ryan, and for the first and probably last time in any social namespace, ~ryan.

I’m a Philadelphian, a solutions engineer in print manufacturing (automating print orders to press, monkeying with databases and APIs, that kind of thing), and a movies, elections and dad jokes enthusiast.

I’m on Twitter a fair amount at https://twitter.com/rgodfrey, and at Letterboxd at https://letterboxd.com/rgodfrey/

In honor of the new birth of tilde.club Mark II, I have updated my semi-creepy tribute to Enya (itself a bit of a dad joke) with a fancy bit of javascript that calculates her current age down to the minute. She was 53 for like five years, man.

Looking forward to sshing with youse again.

—Ryan

[tapping on brain] Is this thing on?

Lovely to see y’all, and thrilled to see that 90% of http://tilde.club/~kentbrew/ still works!

Hey everyone,

I'm ~mat. 

It's amazing to see so many familiar names on a single chain. I was/am "emptyage" a lot of other places online. I forgot about domain registration and lost all my websites, so I can't really link to anything of my own, but my audioscrobbler appears to mostly be kids' music now. 

I will be in NYC next week and would love to see other ~tildes. Would anyone be interested in meeting after work on the 24th?

What a gas.

You’ve Got Mail is a great movie and I’m not even a little embarrassed to admit to all the times I’ve watched it completely alone. Simpler times. RIP AIM. At least we still have IRC.

Hey all! Just wanted to say I’m glad the site is back up! Also very funny to me that my wife and I are watching You’ve Got Mail tonight feels like I’m going back in time

Cheers,

Man this is real cool; how nice to get to engage with the internet in 2019 and not be left vaguely nauseated by the experience. 

I’m Matt (~langer) and I live in New Mexico. “It ain’t Mexico and it ain’t new,” say some of the bumper stickers; “so far from heaven, so close to Texas” say the others. I write code some of the time and work with horses the rest of it, and apparently I never bothered to update my default tildepage. 

Loving this thread. Keep the emails coming.

I was just waiting for someone to admit they forgot their password and/or lost the key there were using, so I could admit that too.

anyway, I'm Sid and I'm in NYC. I was part of the devopsdaysNYC this year - if you remember that or were there :)

now to email root to get my password fixed.

Completely forgot my password too. I probably used a very retro one trying to be all smart.

Hello Nerds!

I'm ~stefan (and @stefanhayden on twitter) and I'm a developer in NYC at Shutterstock and I've been there for 9 years. It's a solid gig but I'm trying to get some side project off the ground so I can be more independent. Right now I'm trying to build out this site that lets you get fun notification sounds when some JS code run on your site (https://audioalerts.io).

It's a pleasure restarting to talk to all of you!
