I'll go first.
I'm a developer by trade, but also a longtime entrepreneur and company founder, so my day job these days is less development-focused. My main specific expertise is Ruby on Rails.
In my personal life, I'm a Canadian living in New York State. I'm one of five kids growing up. I'm married with two dogs and have pretty eclectic interests in my personal time: I'm a lifelong comic book fan, into sports, enjoy art and design, and generally like to make things.
🙂
I am a full stack web developer, more focused on developing products.
Right now I am working at SoftwareONE as Microsoft 365 Architect.
In my personal life, I am italian living in Zurich (Switzerland). I have a son, three dogs, 6 computers and a lot of tattoos. :)
I am a triathlete, as well!
I mostly build small, specialized tools so that leads me to dabble a lot. I've focused on C# lately since it can be used for many different types of applications. But I can use other languages if needed for the project.
In my personal life, I love playing board games with my family and friends and enjoying the California sunshine 😎
Hi everyone!👋😊
About me
I'm a software engineer from Mumbai, India, and worked in the startup ecosystem of Bangalore for several years. My love for writing helped me make a transition from full stack development to Developer Relations 🥑 at my current organization.
My interests outside of code
Science, fitness and philosophy are some of my other passions.
Would love to connect with y'all and know what your lives are like! 😄
Hi Everyone!
About me as a developer
I am an average developer. Plenty of spaghetti code knocking about with my name on it.
However I have spent a lot of time working in and learning about accessibility, website performance (and core web vitals) and Conversion Rate Optimisation and despite imposter syndrome I would call myself an expert in all 3.
Just started a new role at daily.dev which is even more on the marketing side of things (I am designing my own job, so my official title doesn't exist yet!), so my development skills will be spent on dashboards, analysis and tools to speed up the marketing process and I will finally get to flex more of my creative muscles!
About me personally
After 15 years of abusing my body, eating poorly and doing no exercise I have been hitting the gym hard the last few months! Loving it (still weak and fat, but less weak and less fat than I was 3 months ago!)!
I have also been improving my diet, luckily I really enjoy cooking, it has always been something that I find relaxing.
I spend a lot of time reading and writing nowadays, I really love challenging my own beliefs and biases so I tend to try and read things that conflict with my own views and opinions.
I have an unusual talent, I can watch 2-3 seconds of a film and (assuming I have watched it), tell you what film it is purely from the colour grading and sound design etc. Maybe I missed my calling in video production 🤣
Occasionally I draw, I am useless at people etc. but I love architecture so I draw cityscapes, dream houses etc.
Nice😊
Welcome to Dev , @inhuofficial !🥳
'Average' is a tricky word to use for a developer...no one knows everything , not even top I.T. management.
Certain projects take years and various refinements . It is by working together that we get the job done.
Good luck to you! Hope to see some of these cityscapes someday.🤩
Having studied electronics, I learned on my side to develop with a very old computer. Over the years, I was able to exploit more of the Web dev and other languages that are useful to me today.
Since one month, I am following a training that will give me a diploma at the end. 👨🏼🎓 I am so happy to be part of this path, to finally be recognized as a developer and not an electrician! 🥰🚀
Apart from coding, I like to read from time to time, my latest books are about the world of Harry Potter, and a written account of a Youtuber's life called "I am not virile" (In French : "Je ne suis pas viril (Amazon link)"). Very good book ! 📚
I also like to play with friends and also go out for a walk and clear my head.
I'm a software engineer with an emphasis on engineer. I worked in the industry for ten years, then specifically went through a famous software engineering masters program (the one Steve McConnell graduated from, among others) in order to soak up the best ideas from academia and the industry (adjunct faculty were from Microsoft, Google, and Amazon) before being spit out into another 8 years at companies like Expedia, Zillow, and eBay. I'm currently a staff software engineer working on public APIs at eBay. (Opinions expressed are my own, however.) I love working at "web scale" and improving what customers care about. And my customers happen to be other developers!
I'm an avid outdoorsperson. I'm a gambler in the Gambler 500 sense, always happy to help clean up public lands and keep them available and open. I'm a fan of punk and garage rock. I'm a mountain biker. I'm a "typical Seattlite." I also have a bachelors in English/Writing and an interest in everything book-related. I'm predictably a fan of sci-fi the most. My favorite author is PKD.
Show HNandProductHuntsoon (or whichever kind of outlets are out there where I can find people who are as pained by our antiquated tools as I am)?I am software engineer from Islamabad, Pakistan. I mostly work on React Native and React. Currently I am working as a React Native Frontend Lead in UK based company. I also write tech blogs here related to frontend technologies.
Other than that I love to draw, paint and sketch. All of my artworks are on my insta. I also like to crochet I'm learning it nowadays. I naturally like to organize things so in my free time I mostly cleaning mess create by my siblings and organising the space. 😄
