Hi Jessamyn! I read Soul of a New Machine for the first time just 3 years ago, even though I’m old enough to remember seeing it in the computer section of my local library as a relatively new release. Before I read it, I saw a comment you made (on Bryan Cantrill’s blog perhaps?) similar to this one. I wanted to thank you for that, as it undoubtedly changed how I interpreted the book as I read it. It can be easy to romanticize the hard work and sacrifice portrayed in a book like that, without understanding the toll that sacrifice took on those around them.

So thank you for continuing to offer your perspective on your father and his work.
