About MacBook, and how I visited the office of Habr
It so happened (it was supposed to happen, as the bokonoists say) that the news that I won a MacBook caught me on a business trip in the capital of our country. I had a chance to pick up my prize in person.
What I actually did.
After a certain amount of telephone conversations with representatives of Habr, I got to the office. He came before the appointed time, and for ten minutes walked in circles, overwhelmed by various feelings. Then the hall, corridor, elevator. Doors to the office.
And in the office there is a muffled light, a sofa, a huge monitor from the nearby desk. I was in the heart of Habr :) Some small things on the tables, Darth Vader's helmet on the cabinet, radio-controlled cars in a box in the corner. Then I realized that I immediately liked it there. There was absolutely no official atmosftera suits and ties. As if they come here not as a job, but simply move to another place, and people's life goes on. In general, a cozy office in which good people work.

To the room were two girls from iProLab, one of whom introduced herself as a director. Workers of Habr were treated to tea, told a little, asked a little. And I was exhausted by Moscow, work and cold, but I tried not to show my mind :) He told me that this was my hobby, that I was a programmer, and all that.
Then the official part ended smoothly, we went out into the hall, and the historical moment of the prize presentation came.
IProLab representatives give me a laptop. (On the photo there are invisibly some more Habr employees. Try to guess where they are :)
Once again I will say: thanks to Habra and everyone who voted for me. Special thanks to the sponsor - iProLab . And this is not an advertisement at all. Just the very moment in that very office is remembered to me every time I see this computer. And it will be remembered for a long time.
And then I left. With macbook. In mild stupor, still not believing that this really happened.
Someone asked to write about the impressions of working with poppy seeds. For me, who first used a poppy, it was something. But that's another story ...
Until we meet again, friends!
