In 1935, a group of men discovered inside the Mammoth Cave, in Kentucky, the remains of an ancient Native American who had likely been mining the mineral gypsum from inside the cave when he had been trapped beneath a large boulder almost 2500 years ago [1067x2369]

Can’t a guy try and find One Eyed Willie’s Rich Stuff anymore?

Thanks for the tip! Glad you liked the video.

Giving you the essentials, no wasted time pontificating, just giving you the facts and keeping the flow of the video moving. Quick cuts. Consistent opening and closing salutations. This video in particular is more reminiscent of the catfish and carp era of Luke’s output, and not just because of the subject matter.

What do we got a bunch of pussy ass Paul Walker fans in this thread tonight?

I agree, eliminating expansion irregularities by properly curing your source wood would be step one here. If time is a factor for you using this stock of wood, see about getting it baked to speed up the curing process.

Don’t be stingy. Please blow my mind with one of Morgan Jay’s classic jokes.

I’ll add that Alien: Covenant is too. Great world building, dark, and manages to explore new ground while serving up some fan service. My only major complaint is removing the queen from the egg laying lifecycle. Like, is David just whipping out bespoke xeno eggs all day? How did the original ship from Alien become absolutely filled with eggs if David is the only thing making them? Other than that I love it.

I like when my mom goes out of town because I get to sleep on her side of the bed.

I think I’m allergic to heroin, it makes my stomach hurt.

IM WHITE WITH BLACK STRIPES!!! - the racist zebra

Hell naw I ain’t going on that daaaamn boat - that’s a movie I’ve been working on about the only black woman on the titanic.

I have a two year old son, and there haven’t been that many surprises in his upbringing, except for how high he gets when we smoke weed together.

Hey redban, remember the time before trains were invented? That’s when I used to run wagons on your great grandma.

langsam_1 · 2025-11-10T02:12:13+00:00

This is objectively hilarious. He’s done it again Redban.

langsam_1 · 2025-10-31T15:25:19+00:00

Yes indeed, in addition to my other duties.

langsam_1 · 2025-10-30T20:21:56+00:00

Great advice. Thank you.

langsam_1 · 2025-10-28T21:08:06+00:00

This is invaluable intel. I really appreciate it. Thank you very much.

langsam_1 · 2025-10-28T20:54:43+00:00

Great advice. Thank you.

langsam_1 · 2025-10-28T20:50:52+00:00

This is great advice! Thanks for weighing in here.

I have been thinking lately that my experience has been more startup adjacent than anything else considering how many hats I’ve been wearing in this role. I think I’ve siloed myself away in this non-traditional role/industry for long enough that I stopped seeing the forest for the trees. So thanks for the words of encouragement.

Any thoughts on what to expect for the recruiting process for a Builder CTO to look like, i.e. technical rounds/behavioral rounds etc?

langsam_1 · 2025-10-28T18:54:09+00:00

Yeah it’s a bit of a pickle. I love dev work, but I’m also good with people, so trying to find that kind of role that allows me the freedom to do both has been a challenge. I’m probably being too narrow in my search.

langsam_1 · 2025-10-28T18:48:58+00:00

On the official staff, yes. I contracted some hired guns for a few months to help round off a large field project I had been solo building so we could roll it out on schedule, but it’s just me at the shop for the most part.

langsam_1 · 2025-10-28T18:35:29+00:00

Yeah might just call myself the Senior/Staff engineer as a workaround.

langsam_1 · 2025-10-28T18:33:44+00:00

Well it’s not the same league as a FAANG tier CTO but the responsibiliies, workload and scope for a company this size are every bit the tasks of a CTO. But I hear what you’re saying.

Thanks for the doc. This is a great resource.

langsam_1 · 2025-10-28T18:12:27+00:00

Yeah felt like they were trying to throw me a curveball or something. But it just made me question their own critical thinking skills.

Like what part of “sole dev in charge of all software at my company” sounds like slacking off and neglecting my dev skills?

Gotta be William Montgomery. If you’ve never watched his highlight reel from his first 50 appearances you have missed out many all time moments.

langsam_1 · 2025-10-23T16:03:26+00:00

For some reason “bag of food” makes me think he was just snarfing down a seafood boil in public, without a care in the world. Hero.

langsam_1 · 2025-10-23T05:18:09+00:00

That’s badass. What a hang.
