An interesting question: is it easier to motivate a learned individual that never does anything, or educate an ignorant individual that actually produces things?

I like to think I'm pretty good at what I do.

Everybody's saturated with the marketing hype of next-generation consoles. They are wonderful, but the truth is that they are as powerful as a high end PC is right now.

I recognize that I possess a very special intellect, but at the same time, I recognize that I'm lacking in a lot of areas. But being well-rounded is greatly overrated.

Programming in the abstract sense is what I really enjoy. I enjoy lots of different areas of it... I'm taking a great deal of enjoyment writing device drivers for Linux. I could also be having a good time writing a database manager or something because there are always interesting problems.

Focused, hard work is the real key to success.

It is not that uncommon for the cost of an abstraction to outweigh the benefit it delivers. Kill one today!
