I started blogging on October 7, 1994. Thirty-two years on Wednesday. The longest running blog, and it's still even worse than it appears.

Congratulations!
I've known about your work since the Userland days when my company (STI, later acquired by Novell) was evaluating Frontier.
Never got to say hi to you when I was later at Apple, even though we were in the same room at Infinite Loop during the Copland days when you stood up to the bully Wayne Meretsky. I was a new hire and quite timid at the time 🙂
@rameshgupta -- nice story, but i don't remember being at infinite loop and have no recollection of the event you mention.
but apple people being assholes is something i do remember. ;-)

That was an invitation-only event for Apple developers when the ill-fated Copland was still taking shape. The confrontation left a profound impression on me. I had never met you personally before, and my Apple colleagues later identified the person as you.
It could be my mistake, but if you were there and have forgotten about it, I'm still happy for you. Glad that we cleared this up!
@davew Congrats Dave!
@davew congrats on your anniversary! Way longer than me! 👊
@davew Epic. I started in September 1998; four years behind you.
You don't look like you're slowing down any time soon, so my best bet to catch up is to try to make the most of the fact that I'm 26 years your younger! 😜
