Mine‘s getting so accustomed to cold showers that I a) absolutely do not mind cold water for swimming etc. anymore and b) could not enjoy warm or hot showers anymore. They just weren’t nice at all.

Some code I wrote is buried in an archive storage underground in the Arctic

If you had some code in an active GitHub repo before February 2020 you may too, https://archiveprogram.github.com/arctic-vault/

That's heckin' cool, but why is it archived?

I think the idea is that it's like the Global Seed Vault but for knowledge (and it's physically close, too). Maintain copies of important things in such a way that they are designed to survive ~any catastrophe.
