I hear the world is full of pain, Flooding, terror, acid rain; Music, theatre, laughs and art, Whiskey, coffee, beer and darts, Rainbows, glaciers, hiking trails; Rare Pepes and EPIC FAILs, Overwatch and Pokemon Go; Donald Trump and Bernie Bros; Dreams, and Drugs, and Rock n' Roll, Dharma, Love, and the eternal soul, The Holy Quran and the Higgs boson Tajwid in Geneva, QFT in Tehran. Yet day by day I sit and type Edit, grep, compile, pipe All that a system smoothly might run Ashes to Ashes, Zero to One ''' npm install; grunt &; restart nginx docker run -d me/interests; pkill sleep; pkill *** nice 14 nutrition; rm /etc/cron.daily/exercise pkill -STOP judgment; scp foodler:'**/{burger,fries}' ~ ''' It's rather ironic that this metal you see, Seems quite a better multitasker than me Whereas It stops its world to switch one task for others My open descriptors always overflow my buffers Whereas it take new patches with a simple 'apt-get' My resolve for upgrades I quite often forget And when its health checks fail, we regrow the ASG But my self won't reboot. et memento mori.
