StarGazer waves farewell
Saying goodbye is never easy, but in 3 days I will disembark from our beloved space station. After nearly 13 awesome cycles with all of you, team and Citizens, my journey has come to end. I am sad, but at the same time very grateful and full of love. Knowing about the upcoming features and awesome (not only nice!) UI upgrade, I see a bright future for Tau Station.
Have a good holiday, Citizens!
For many members of our beloved Community, as well as some of the Tau Station team, right now is holiday season! Shuttles have been dispatched and orbital vacation facilities have been booked (always while maintaining the appropriate social distancing and safety requirements)!
Making Complex Software Simple
As of this writing, Tau Station is about half a million lines of code. Most of that is Perl, a language that is famously concise. Were it written in Java, for example, it would probably clock in at well over a million lines of code. When a codebase gets to this size, it can be very hard to maintain. This is how we manage that complexity.
Wishing you a good holiday!
It’s holiday season for many right now, including the Tau Station team.
