Introduction

I've worked at some places you may have heard of, and others you may not have: <list of companies>. I could say I focus on <>, all of which is true, but I like to think I work on whatever is necessary to make a company successful.

Notepad, thoughts out loud, learning in public, misunderstandings, mistakes. undiluted opinions. I'm <>, an itinerant developer. I live (and try to work in) <> on the south coast of England. Please don't mistake me for an expert in anything. I love technology and programming, but make no claims to be any good at it. Much of what you read here may be poorly thought out, wrong, or just plain dangerous.
