A couple of them. They're 5 and 8.

When they were younger, they slept (sometimes) and I didn't. I've never slept much, so I didn't feel like I was missing out on too much.

Last spring I noticed I could finally do things in the daytime again, too. Which is great, I really missed guitar. Suddenly they're interested in what I'm doing too.

Haven't talked either into updating my VM fleet for me, but maybe some day.

I treat my "alerts" as more of a suggested to do list. The things I'm self-hosting are important to us (we all use them), but not critical. Life will go on until I get to it.

I've also learned that "boring tech" is the way to go.
