The connection between cross-stitching, Lego, and DevOps
I guess one person's mundane problem is somebody else's exciting challenge. Aside from that, cross-stitching.
Viktor Farcic: Cross-stitching? What exactly do you mean by that?
Kohsuke Kawaguchi: Cross-stitching is needlework. I started doing this because my wife picked it up and I thought it would be good to have a common hobby with her. It's generally an old woman's hobby. Let me explain cross-stitching in a way that geeks understand. Imagine a screen, and there are the pixels. Each pixel can be a different color. That's how we build graphics. Cross-stitching is the exact same thing; it's just on the piece of cloth, instead of a screen, and instead of pixels, you're using colored threads. It's just the analog version of a video screen. So, I stitch some video game characters and so on for fun.
Now, obviously, the actual stitching is incredibly manual and repetitive...
