I have been bumming around doing Software development for 22+ years. A bit of everything, including a most enjoyable stint at NuMega Technologies where I (and 2-3 other amazing developers) wrote SoftICE/95, SoftICE for Windows NT 3.0 and 3.5. I also developed the MACH5 technology behind the TrueTime profiler. During my time there I was fortunate enough to have the office next to Matt Pietrek and saw 1st hand the demands and difficulties of writing about software and software development. Still, I spent 2 years as a monthly columnist writing about Java technologies.
As of this time, I just write a lot of code, mostly C#, but some C++/ATL/COM, Assembler, and the occasional VB6/VB.NET. I focus mainly on UI because I spent so much time in the bowels of the OS that it just plain bores me.
