5 weeks and counting... (adrian's home)

Lots happening these days, the big day is quickly approaching. We're busily trying to take care of the last bits of wedding tasks, which take a pretty big chunk of time. We happily found out last week that we're going to both have a week off after the wedding, so we can go on a honeymoon. We hadn't planned on that at all. We're very much looking forward to it.

I'm no longer at Natural Data, I'm now working for Q9 Networks in Toronto. The job, company, people and location are fantastic. For the first time in a long time, I actually wake up and look forward to going to work. ;)

I was thinking the other day... It seems that every so often, I mention that I've primarily done software development, and the first thing people in related technical positions ask is, "What languages do you know?". I find that question analogous to someone asking a construction worker what tools they know how to use. There's so much more to software development than knowing a language, as there's so much more to building a house than knowing how to use a hammer. Next time you meet a software developer, refrain from asking them what languages they know. There's lots more to what they know than the syntax, and in's and out's of particular languages.
