## Purpose
|
|
|
|
I'm routinely asked if I'm okay, how things are going, what's been going on, etc. 🧐
|
|
|
|
I appreciate the concern which I assume these messages are coming from, but am not interested in helping others manage their emotions. 🙃
|
|
|
|
So, this article is to help those people self-serve whether I'm still alive and breathing. 😄
|
|
|
|
## Where to find "Signs of Life"
|
|
|
|
Here are a few ways to confirm that I've been online recently.
|
|
|
|
Just because none of them have activity does mean mean I'm dead or suffering.
|
|
|
|
I'm more likely enjoying some solitude or taking a break from technology.
|
|
|
|
### Most Likely
|
|
|
|
#### Code Changes
|
|
|
|
I love working on my projects. The longest I'd likely go without changing something is a week.
|
|
|
|
Don't worry about the technical details, just check the timestamps.

|
|
|
#### Written Posts
|
|
|
|
This website is new (at least compared to when this article is being posted) and I'm enjoying adding things every few days.
|
|
|
|
Eventually it may just be weekly or biweekly though. I'm not planning any "regular intervals".

|
|
|
|
### Somewhat Likely
|
|
|
|
#### Odysee Videos
|
|
|
|
There's not much rhyme or reason as to when I make videos.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes there are a few in a week, sometimes only one every quarter or half year.
|
|
|
|
It's a better proof of life than just code and written changes though, I suppose.

|
|
|
|
### Least Likely
|
|
|
|
#### Recent Photos
|
|
|
|
As of this article I'm well over a year late on posting photos.
|
|
|
|
I've worked on organizing them but it's just not much of a priority.
|
|
|
|
I'll get to them eventually, probably. ;)

## Conclusion
|
|
|
|
I really don't like check-ins, please don't ask for them. 😆
|
|
|
|
Ask me to hang out instead! Or if we're not currently near each other, tell me some cool news and I'll respond when I can. 🤙🤠🤙
|
|
|
|
I tend to ignore messages such as "Everything alright?". So seriously, don't do it. 😂

Otherwise don't be surprised if I take longer to get back to you than others. 😈

|
|
|
Peace and wellness to you! 💚
