A couple of years ago I had a nice chance to be employee approximatly #10 at Caonical and work on Ubuntu. I turned them down at the eleventh hour, and have been second-guessing that decision on and off ever since.

Today I realized I can stop worrying about whether I made the right decision back then, because it seems very likely that if I had joined them as employee #10, unless my contributions somehow made it develop much differently than it has, I would have left Canonical by now, for one reason or another.
