Just because my wife is always right about the house and kids, does not imply anything how deep our relations are. In fact I have more time to hack things because I can leave a lot to my wife. That's how successful companies get built

I do not 'keep peace', we both understand that it is the most productive approach. And yes I do have my voice when needed.
