What I'll Be Ranting About

Good development practices bring us quality code, confident systems, and missed launch windows. When do you refactor and when do you factor in the passing time? As engineers we need to design what is possible and capable. As programmers we need to turn imagination into reality without a physical product. As developers we need to bridge the gab between that engineered vision and the end product.

I also blog more personally over at my tumblr page.

I am available for small contracts, consultations, tutoring, and other development services. My "skills" as a technical writer are also available. If you've got anything you'd like to talk to me about or for me to see, drop me a line.

How To Follow the Book Meme

This is not a bug.

I traced the book meme that is going around back to this guy. My nearest was The Best Software Writing. Somehow, I really like what this random peek into a book gave me to post. Somehow quite fitting.

The rules for this meme thing are :

  • Grab the nearest book.
  • Open it to page 56.
  • Find the fifth sentence.
  • Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
  • Don’t dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.
