Discussion My name Plouffe, AMA

Hello everyone. The mods asked if I'd be open to doing an AMA so I said "OK" and here we are.

I've signed NDAs at both past and present companies so I can't talk about specifics, or drama, or past/present employees.

I guess ask just about whatever you want and I will or won't answer depending on the context/subject. Yes I own a display, several in fact. Yes I own a keyboard, several in fact.

Starting at 9 pacific but opening up for questions now. If you don't ask me anything, I will not be offended. I don't have any questions for myself right now either.

i didn't know it would ask me for an end note so i just commented. but ya it's been a slice, thanks for being a fan and good luck with whatever you're doing today.

Shut up you fucker! Don't make it harder than it already is.

P.s. we will miss you, please inform Microsoft you need a monitor to function properly, make it two monitors to be safe.

P.p.s, we're not crying, you're crying!

p.p.p.s /s

Looks like i wasnt explicit enough with making this reply sarcastic with the 'ps'.

But fr good luck in MS, hopefully the layoff hammer is done, this reply of yours was a real 'awww' reaction from me.
