In the Beginning There Was Darkness

Hey there, welcome to this tiny little corner of the world wide netscape I call my website.

This is your typical first post of the typical personal blog of a typical software developer. Why am I doing this blogging thing? That’s a very boring and typical question to ask myself.

The Why, in Bullet Points

• I want to be better at communicating via written form. I communicate a lot with code, not a lot with words.
• I want to write more. I haven’t written anything meaningful since university.
• I’m always learning new tech. A good way to learn is to try to teach. A great way to learn is to try to teach by writing for a hypothetical audience.
• Everybody and their mothers are doing it. Like with Bitcoin, I fear missing out.

Google image says this is a statue of Plato in thought. I like to think he is facepalming at the sight of yet another blog by yet another software guy.

Why do they call them bullet points? What did they call them before guns were invented? Arrow dents?

The What, in Arrow Dents

In the future you can expect from this blog:

• Tech stuff. Yeah, that’s super vague.
• Cringe worthy amounts of sarcasm and bad comedy.
• Uninformed thoughts and opinions.
• Stolen Referenced and recommended material.
