But I think that longer term, I am interested in some sort of governance model because I don't think I'm going to be working on a terminal the rest of my life. And I do want this to be impactful. So that's something I've definitely thought about. The beta testers have been involved in this. discussion we've had for almost a year based on project sustainability.

Because even though it's not something I want to pursue any financial gain for, I would like it to be sustainable for others. And so we've talked about, can we set up, whether it's, is it sponsorships? Is it this? Is it that? In order to, I don't want any of that, but in order to pay the infrastructure costs and also potentially in the future, pay contributors as well. And so that's something that

we're just talking about and we're not a hundred percent sure about, but that's sort of the extent to which I've been thinking about this so far.

Yeah. I mean, yeah, for now it is definitely a BDFL model for now, but yeah, BDFL for now. Gotcha. BDFLFN. There you go. How long have you been working on it? So the first commit was actually March or April 2022. But it's very deceiving because I was still full-time working for HashiCorp. And you could just tell through the commit history. I worked on it here and there.

I worked on it here and there.

There was like a three-month period where I didn't do a single thing. And then, you know, it was very, very on and off because it was really just me playing around with technologies. I think I got a little bit more serious probably last about over a year, a little over a year ago. Yeah.

I do fly planes. I do. Yeah, that is a hobby. But it's... I didn't get all pessimistic like a lot of people get. I still love technology and I think that technology is getting better and I think that there's a lot that could be done with it still. So I knew that I was going to stick around and do something.

The important thing I did post HashiCorp was when I really formally really left, like wasn't getting any sort of paycheck or anything and had to get healthcare on my own and all that sort of stuff. When I really left, my daughter was about... two and a half months old. And so one thing I really wanted to do was just be able to spend a ton of time with her.

So for the majority of this year, and that's a big part of why I didn't publicly release Ghostie right away. For the majority of this year, I've been home and only working during naps or at night or whatever. Every time my daughter's been awake, I've been with her. And it's only been within the past month

For the majority of this year, I've been home and only working during naps or at night or whatever. Every time my daughter's been awake, I've been with her. And it's only been within the past month

month or so where that started to change a little bit as she's about 15 months now she has more things that she's going to and stuff and so I've been able to carve out more like dedicated even though she's awake like working hours and so I think I did spend that time but on the other side You know, I, I'm not someone that can't work. I love working and my family knows I love working.

And so finding that time, um, showing, being able to, as my daughter gets older to like see her dad working, you know, that's important to me. And so, uh, that's, that's all part of it.
