For you newbies in the audience, this is Drew telling us he had little time for posting and to buck up and appreciate the fact he went to even this effort.
yes, it falls under the “trying to have a life” category. For every post that goes up here, 3 to 5 don’t make it. Because I try to have something to say that’s at least a little useful, that means I have to read them all. That eats up a lot of time. Arcane things that catch my interest require some research; those posts can absorb hours. Each.
Sure, folks send me links sometimes. That can help, sometimes. Still, it eats up quite a lot of time. We have a staff of 3 here, with minimal communication and coordination, and only one of us is retired. Theo’s has 30 people working for him. Mr. Puppy Blender over at Insty probably has a professional staff just to read the emails, and even then he only writes a dozen or so words for each link.
