Thank you. Yeah, it's been 10 years since the last show. And then the first time, the only other time I was on, I think it's been like 13, 14 years. It's wild.

That was 2007. 10. I don't know, but yeah. Wow.

No, I say ghosty. I say ghosty.

If you want to be pedantic, terminal emulator, but you really don't have to be. I think to most people, terminal would make the most sense. Yeah.

That's usually the first thing I get asked. Yeah, I mean, I think... I think the important thing to know is I didn't set out a couple of things. I guess I didn't set out like knowing I wanted to work on a terminal emulator. And second, even when I decided, Hey, I want to work on this. I didn't think anyone would actually care.

Uh, but the why really goes back to, I wanted to post HashiCorp sort of get back into different categories of programming that I hadn't had the time to work in and felt a little rusty. And, uh,

no pun intended and um i you know for me that meant you know non-infrastructure non-server side you know desktop side software using a gpu something i never used you know while we're at hush corp at least not too much graphics programming you know just everything the polar opposite of what you could think of what i've been doing i wanted to get back and play around with it and

I poked around at a few things, but felt that a terminal emulator was a good combination of those things I wanted to play around with. And as I sort of spent more time doing that, recognized, hey, I think terminal emulators can actually be a lot better. And I think there's like an opportunity here to do something that people really love. And that turned into a much more serious thing, I guess.

It's not even the speed. I'm not a big fan of the built-in one, but yeah. Gotcha. Yeah, I mean, I think that one thing I've always said about terminals is that I think if you compare them conceptually to a web browser, then it starts to make a lot more sense about why I care about terminals.

And what I mean by that is the web browser has for better or worse, just, I don't think it's controversial to say that it's one sort of the graphical interface ecosystem of the world.
