I'm a great coder. But I am not pushing that so much anymore because there are thousands of great coders.
It always helps to be a good programmer. It is important to like computers and to be able to think of things people would want to do with their computers.
Robots... I think that is a hot topic.
A quiet personality sure isn't what you need to attract attention.
I have a really powerful urge to see things work.
I can do whatever I want. They will tell me if what I am doing is stupid or a total waste of time. I may tell them that they are wrong, and we will come to an agreement.
