Reminiscent of this[^], and other art projects involving punch-cards, going back over the years/decades (a midi timeline and a punch-card are conceptually the same thing).
Fun to see, but it gets old really quickly.

Sudden Sun Death Syndrome (SSDS) is a very real concern which we should be raising awareness of. 156 billion suns die every year before they're just 1 billion years old.

Even after almost thirty years I still get up excited at the thought of doing my job even though I do far less coding than I would really like. And why, I hear you ask, is that?
1: Get to work with some elephanting smart people - I get to learn stuff constantly.
2: Who doesn't love cutting code?
3: Get to play with computers all day.
4: Get to play with new technologies when they come out.
There are more but those are the core reasons, especially number 1: it's hard not to be impressed by the people around me.

This is probably going to come off sounding arrogant, but I assure you it isn't -- I wish I had that experience. For the most part, it's been the other way around most of my life. The exception was (and still is) when I work with hardware engineers. I've pretty much never had the experience of working with software engineers that I've been impressed by.

After looking at your articles, I'm pretty sure it'd be a miracle if there were two people like that in the same place. You'll have to get used to impressing others rather than being impressed by anyone.

Are corned beef, potatoes, and soda bread common foods in Ireland? We grew up having that every St. Patty's day. Just curious how authentic it really is.

The main three food groups in Ireland are Guinness, Jamesons, and Murphys from what I remember of visits.
Oh yes, and Bull Sh*t, known locally as "Blarney".

I couldn't find any Tulamore Dew yesterday, so I had to make do with half a bottle of Jameson's. It's not bad really, if chased with scotch.

Really? Asking "Any Irish natives out there?" in St. Patrick's day?
Of course they are out there... having "party" and some drinks with friends and family. I think you should have asked it other day... probably you would have got more answers than today  
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Corned Beef is just Black Pudding for people who haven't the guts...
Also - "Paddies" or "St Patrick's"...

May the wind at your back not be a result of that corned beef and cabbage.

Ya, it's pretty funny what some people will focus on.

The English have infected Irish potatoes with famine. Thought that was common knowledge.
That's why we have the real Ira and before that the fake Ira.

I remember working with a black gentleman named Willis O. Webb in Washington, DC.
On St Patrick's Day, he wore a button that said, "Kiss me, I'm Irish".
Pointing at the button, I gave him a quizzical look.
He grinned and said, "The name is O'Webb."
