     @wgahnagl This specific curse is why alt.sysadmin.recovery used to exist on Usenet. The curse of seeing things and wanting to see it all and put it all together!

     you could give me the most painfully boring project known to man. This could be a subcomponent built specifically to do the most boring task in the world but if you make it super complicated and ask me to start figuring it out I'll literally get dizzy from excitement, and that should constitute as some kind of diagnosable mental illness

     After the revolution where I'm permitted to laugh and dance and sing and engage in joyous human behaviors or whatever I'm going to be hunched over in a cave fiddling with ancient CI/CD infrastructure
