Henry Sanchez

Henry Sanchez, also known as The Terminator, is a goofy-footed former professional skateboarder from the San Francisco Bay, California.[1] Sanchez gained widespread recognition for his part in Blind Skateboards' "Tim and Henry's Pack of Lies" (1992) with Tim Gavin, Rudy Johnson, Brian Lotti, and Guy Mariano.[2] He appeared on the cover of Thrasher (magazine) in July 1993.[3]

Skateboarding career

Henry's career spanned two decades in which he starred in Blind's "Pack of Lies" and a decade later in Transworld's "Sight Unseen".[4] Henry Sanchez along with Mike Carroll and many others served as an impactful pivotal point in skateboarding progression at San Francisco's Embarcadero Plaza.[4] Sanchez and the EMB crew led the way during this highly innovative time in San Francisco skateboarding. Henry was the first person to flip out of a ledge trick. After retiring from skating Sanchez briefly started and ran a clothing company called Magik.[5] Today he works on hotrods and sheet metal fabrication.[2]

gollark: Anyway, good news systemd-dislikers, I made an EXCELLENT and AMAZING replacement using the RUST programming language.
gollark: I have DashMap in here because of some vague dream of concurrently doing... stuff.
gollark: ```rustuse std::process::Command;use anyhow::Result;use std::path::Path;use std::fs;#[derive(serde::Serialize, serde::Deserialize, Debug)]struct RawServiceSpec { command: String, args: Vec<String>, name: Option<String>}#[derive(Debug)]struct ServiceSpec { command: String, args: Vec<String>, name: String}fn load_spec(path: &Path) -> Result<ServiceSpec> { let file = fs::read_to_string(path)?; let raw: RawServiceSpec = toml::from_str(&file)?; Ok(ServiceSpec { command: raw.command, args: raw.args, name: path.file_stem().unwrap().to_string_lossy().to_string() })}fn run_service(serv: ServiceSpec) -> Result<()> { println!("thread {:?}", serv); loop { println!("Starting"); let mut child = Command::new("/bin/env") .arg("python3") .arg("test.py") .spawn()?; child.wait()?; } Ok(())}fn main() -> Result<()> { let services = dashmap::DashMap::new(); for entry in fs::read_dir("./services")? { let s = load_spec(&entry?.path())?; services.insert(s.name.clone(), s); } let mut handles = Vec::new(); for e in services { handles.push(std::thread::spawn(|| run_service(e.1))); } for handle in handles { handle.join().unwrap(); } Ok(())}```
gollark: Well, I guess that's systemd replaced.
gollark: I can define a service in a TOML file and it's automatically restarted on exit and all.
