A Resignation

I can no longer sustain the level of activity needed to run SoylentNews, and so I have resigned as leader.

In the end, I was literally begging people to step back and let the site "just run" for a few days while I caught up... alas, to no effect. Issues must be resolved "right here and right now" continuously throughout my day with no end in sight.

NCommander has taken over as project lead - he has access to everything from the registrar down. I understand he has a different vision for the project, which will soon be revealed.

I'm sorry to leave like this, but there's really nothing for it. I'm going back to my AI studies, which happen at a more leisurely pace.

John Barrabas

(And yes, this was an amicable transfer of power. There's no hard feelings on my side.)

[Ed. Note: this is a word for word article based on Barrabas's journal entry.]

    Rom is built at a rate of thousands of units per day, so I'm not sure what your point is.

    Maybe he means ROM [wikipedia.org] wasn't built in a day?

    The first ROM took ages to build

    Take it as a subtle pun :-)

      We have a winner! ;)

      If I wanted to be pedantic it would have been "ROM wasn't designed in a day", but then it moves a bit too far from the original to be easily recognised.
