This blog started out with the tagline “Computers? No damn good,” but the theme has been fast evolving away from what lazy good-for-nothings programmers can be and towards documenting my process of learning to find the path of least resistance. Somehow, for me, that doesn’t seem to mean being lazy or careless. Instead it means learning the things I had put off so that I am informed enough to make good technical decisions. It means buckling down and developing the infrastructure I need in order to be productive, even if that means fixing other peoples’ bugs and design mistakes. It means a commitment to playing the game, rather than a fear of getting involved.
