I'm a dad

[eigenbom]

Hey HN, I just had my first child and am over the moon! Witnessing childbirth and the strength of my wife gave me a whole new perspective on humanity and life. My day to day for the last 5 years has been filled with code, so this event was a good reminder that I'm human.

First, Congrats! Second, as you likely know by now, your child is basically a meat computer. It runs pretty well other than it needs routine debugging. It will feel a lot like working through a bit of code you only wrote half of at 3am having not had a full nights sleep in 5 months with 115 decibels melting your brain as you try to recall important subroutines. Enjoy it though, its over before you know it. =]

Haha with a constantly changing ABI right? Thx :D

Great you now have a new kind of device to program! :P On a serious note, congrats! I have a 9 month old myself and its a crazy feeling, soon you'll be saying certain words at certain time of the day, talk about programming humans

I think she triggered an interrupt in my brain and now I'm running a deep hidden subroutine..

[chitrang89]

Great mines a she too :D Don't forget to surround a try/catch and log the exceptions, you'll run into catch more often

This should be tagged as Show HN ;) Just keep calm and carry on coding.

Thx!

Glad to hear the seed round worked out. :P

[eigenbom]

Took a few rounds but the Angels were in on this one.. ;)
