@calvingluck@astrodon.social I made this account about 2 years ago, just to experiment with it, but I never used it. Well, there's no time like the present!

Fine, Java MIGHT be a good example of what a programming language should be like. But Java applications are good examples of what applications SHOULDN'T be like. #quotes #programming
I created this account a couple of years ago as an experiment, but I never used it. Now seems like an exciting time to try it out, so here's a short #introduction. I'm a #csharp developer with a strong interest in #hamradio. I love to build, tune, and test antennas. I also have a mildly insane #gardening problem: my girlfriend and I grow bananas and citrus here in Dallas, TX, which requires building greenhouses around our most productive plants each fall. At work, my whole team is into #accessibility and I'm especially interested in secure #programming techniques. If I can catch myself or a co-worker making a mistake in the OWASP Top 10, I feel especially vindicated. If you hear me on the radio, you might notice that I'm walking the dog while I'm talking to you, or you'll hear our lovebird chirping in the background if I'm indoors.

NPR: They made a material that doesn't exist on Earth. That's only the start of the story.
