Welcome
Hey, welcome to my blog. It's more of a personal notepad really. I'm going to keep it professional - by which I mean J2EE software development.
Ok, that sounds a little more dramatic than it really is. Maintaining this page is a challenge to myself to stay current in the field.
I've yet to work on a project where the powers that be cared if we were on the latest release of anything - or if we were using the most current frameworks, etc. Nor have I ever had a boss come and tell me to re-architect the product because it was fragile, it wasn't flexible, -or- they were concerned about my skills getting rusty. All of this falls onto our personal responsibility. We should be going out and keeping ourselves current, sharp, and dedicated. Otherwise, you may end up where I have found myself today. However, next year I won't have this problem. Will you?
Careful there fellow code-monkey, it could happen to you too.
| This is the tale of a developer that's been "head's down" coding. Now that I have raised my head, I no longer recognize any landmarks. I am a man lost in the Java wilderness... |
