WTF was this??
Cockroach...?
No, killed some of those tonight, though. We are guessing some kind of strange wasp, but really don't know. Certainly not a roach, though. I know the local wood roaches very well.

Yeah, looking at it again it does look much more waspy.
From my quick googling, it looks like a member of the Paper Wasp family.Not sure which one but could be one of these:

Just kicked off another Windows 2012 R2 install. I've installed so many servers this week!

Maybe you should "install" yourself in your bed. Must be nearly 3am over at your place?

It got to be rather late, yeah.

Just got into the office, had to stop by the datacenter this morning because when we switched ISPs and got a new public IP block, we broke all the branch office VPN tunnels

How @RojoLoco learned to better appreciate the use of FQDN?

I do appreciate that, but our firewalls take IPs for the VPN tunnels. No biggie, we only lost remote configuration capabilities for one evening.

OMG, sooooo many "can't reach DNS server" and "can't contact DC" errors on those datacenter servers now....

Just got to work. I'm dressed up for the wake I have to go to later, which a lot of people are surprised by how nicely I clean up. Lol
I just wish I still had a proper suit with all the amenities.

Proper dress shoes, my tie clips (I used to have a small but nice collection), long and dark socks, etc.

I wore suits 3x/week, at least, for most of my life.

I got a proper black suit when I had to go to my grandmother's funeral. With a black shirt and tie, I look like a hitman (not a bad thing). I'll be pimping around in said suit once the weather cools down a bit.

So my fiance most likely wants kids. If I had some kind of guarantee (which no one ever does) that my child would have a full life I would probably be on board, but I have crippling anxiety about being responsible for a human life in the world we live in. I've had small conversations about this here and there with some ML peeps. I'm not a very vulnerable person in general, mostly because of bullying in my life, but a child is the one thing that I would never be able to push out. That is the height of vulnerability IMO. Kids with cancer scares the hell out of me and I'm not even a parent yet.I just don't know how I can reconcile the risks associated with having a kid because you can do everything right and still lose your child--something I don't think I'd ever recover from honestly. Thoughts from ML dads (and everyone else)?
Interested to hear @coliver 's opinion especially since he just became a Dad.
