@gvwilson Greg, I found an old downloaded copy of the vimeo talk from 2010 that went missing, I've put it up on youtube as I don't have a site that would withstand the downloads if I just uploaded it to a blog site.

I'm guessing this should reside in _your_ youtube channel or other site, let me know when you've grabbed it and I'll take it offline from mine.

I'm in the top 3% of earners in Ireland (I'd love to say because of hard work as there was a lot of that, but the amount of sheer blind luck and Other People's hard work and sacrifice is too high for me to believe anything other than Elizabeth Warren's take on "self-made men" here).

Next year, the median price of a house within ICBM range of work will climb more than I can save in a year.

If that's the top 3%'s experience, what the fuck is the plan for when the inevitable rioting starts?

@gvwilson BTW Greg, I just found a copy of your 2010 CUSEC talk "What we actually know about software development and why we believe it's true" buried on an old hard drive; should I reupload it to vimeo to pass it across to you?

Well, feck. The dentist who told me that the extraction was today had his wires crossed and today was just an examination and briefing from the oral surgeon. Two more weeks till stabby mctoothy gets evicted. Yay.
