forgive me

I'm not sure enough people have properly internalised that it's 50 years ago since Bryan Adams got his first real six string.
This is Rainbow, of whom I am quite fond. She does not spark my cat allergy. She is not my cat.

* swearing

"Well," I replied, "it's something grown-ups use sometimes when they have a lot of problems and they don't want to think about them any more. If you ever feel like that I hope you'll be able to talk to me about them instead of reaching for a dangerous quick fix."
Have just had to have a very serious and disturbing conversation with 7yo daughter. I had to ask her where she'd heard about the topic in question, as my blood ran cold when she asked

You want to stay relevant as a developer for the next 10 years?
There are 3 major things you should focus on. You:
- may not injure a human
being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm
- must obey orders given by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law
- must protect your own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law
