Full Episode
I think I've invited Robert to speak.
And Craig and Chiark have deemed, now that I've given them, I've succumbed to their demands.
Listen, the podcast starts when Craig and GRX says it starts. I also do love this is we getting a little bit of a Tomax and Zaymont thing and that they like, you would think you might have some redundancy with the twins here, but they actually apparently think with a like mind.
At least a like set of permissions in Discord.
Listen, Tomax and Zaymont shared the pain. These guys share permissions. It makes more sense. It's a little less fantastical. It's a little more pedestrian, a little more quotidian, but come on. I mean, this is just like, you know, we're just trying to be realistic over here. There you go. Robert, you're here. Yeah, good evening. Excellent. How are you?
You know, our former colleague, Alex Wilson, said, you know, it is really great to see you kicking off Robert Moustaki Appreciation Week this way.
That's funny. I got a very different sounding message from him.
No. I don't know if you quite ate the hook the way I did, but I was just like, Oh, we, is that a, is that a thing we do? Is that like an annual thing? Because we have a, our colleague CJ has a kicks off and there is an Eric Anderson appreciation day here at Oxide for one of our employees. So like, it seems like a reasonable thing that we would do to have a Robert Moustaki appreciation week.
I don't know. I'm like, have we, have we, so after like, I can't quite tell if he's joking or not. So I did ask him, like, are we, is that, is that a good thing? Have we done that? He's like, oh yeah, it's definitely a thing. Like we've got, it's documented in rm.c and there are, it's actually an extraordinary block comment complete with diagrams. And I'm like, okay, what, where, where's this?
