COMING UP FOR AIR

Some time ago while mining for information about how I might improve my craft I stumbled onto a quote:

Beware of a guy in a room - Dynamics of Software Development Jim McCarthy

To sum the idea up, it basically alludes to the idea that a developer who is cut off and work as thought the process is black magic is the worst kind of developer. I was impressed by this idea, long has there been a myth that programmers are solitary creatures that require only a computer, power and time to produce software. A relic of the past, but more than likely a romanticised Hollywood fallacy. It was a thought that has stuck with me and will continue to do so into the future.

HELLO WORLD

I have started this blog… like many others with the intention of writing about the many facets of my life. Be they work (programming/software development), creative (art, drawing, music) or opinion (politics, current affairs)… Of course I’ve made the classic mistake of starting this without any real content… but I’ll give it a blast.
