Re:I have made the decision to disband Hindenburg Research by steve_avery on Wednesday January 15, 2025 @08:18PM (#42719762)
Wow, this made me really emotional. And even though I definitely did not expect a chill Bali DJ set as the motivational link, it also resonated with me in some way.

I can't think of a more honorable way to move through life. I liken the act of closing shop at this point for Hindenburg to the legend I know of Cincinnatus, the Roman emperor who did the job of emperoring and went back to his fields when it was done.

It also moves me how the team is described, as being from whatever background, but all moved by the same fire. I wish that I could be a part of something like that. What the hell am I doing with my life?

Being pedantic here, but Cincinnatus was never Emperor. He was, though, twice given "Dictator" powers by the Roman Senate during the Republican era.
