I have been in the tech world longer than I care to admit. In that time I have seen the ebb and flow, rise and fall of many things. As a result I am not moved by hype cycles. I am not phased by things that put a lot of people into a panic

I care about what's actually running underneath a framework, not just the abstraction on top of it. I favour stable, well-understood tooling over chasing every new trend, and I write code the next developer (including future-me) can actually read.

My approach is to dig deep and understand the underlying the architecture that makes things the way they are. I am I am not impressed by improvement for improvements sake, there should be a valid reason for any change and modification.

However, the world is full of complex humans that wrestle with a symphony of personal, physical and inter-relational challenges that block the fulfillment of many rewarding life targets.
