Not only that, but it’s a huge pain in the ass as well. I say we abolish it altogether. Who’s with me?

I know when I was younger, my mom would put me to bed pretty early. I used to sit there, eyes wide open, listening to the kids outside playing.
I am 100% with you. I’ve been advocating we drop DST for years. It’s just plain stupid.

- I wonder if it's too soon to post that Coffee House Coders is on Wednesday, so as to get it on @lmorchard's radar.
- Corralary: If you've let your codebase get to the point where developers complain it's formatted wrong, fire your management.
- Managed to set the coffee pot this morning without putting water in it. Got a nice hot pot of nothing this morning for my trouble
- No problem. Sorry the response was late. :) LMK if you want any more recommendations. :)

I never realized this until I became a parent (because when I was little I never noticed it I guess)…
It’s a royal pain in the ass to try to get a little kid to go to bed when their room is still as light as day! Seriously. Even at 8pm, which is a good bedtime for most young kids, it’s still super-bright in Kayleigh’s room for almost a full hour. It was that way last summer and it’s gonna be even harder now that she’s a toddler.
Looks like I need to go get some black-out shades or something.
