Considering most of those I was around with at the time were around 14 years ikd…I now realise it’s been 10 years on! We’re adults!..Sort of.
So, I was curious, what are people up to nowadays? Any/coding/particularly help shape your path?
10 Years on - what are people up to nowadays ? :)
What is this adulthood that you speak of?
Senior software developer here. 
Microsoft .NET mostly.
Although right now I’m doing some stuff using the ServiceNow platform at work.
What about you Taios?
Hey Taios
Currently in the Air Force as a server admin / network tech. What about you?
Long time, no see, OP.
Still trying to be a professional dev. Should’ve put more time into that college thing. shrugs

Do you have a way of demonstrating your talent? Like some small to medium sized project(s) on GitHub that have been built using the language and environment configuration you wish to work with?
graduating this semester w/ a bachelors in computer science, then starting full time in silicon valley working as a software engineer at cisco
just mulling about
an introduction to scar at such a young age gave me more career options than I could have hoped for but I squandered any opportunity I had, feels bad

I’m a bit off on some things, and I end up figuring out AFTER it matters heh. Also, lots of job opportunities get filled quickly, so…
But yeah, working on it. Thanks man

It’s actually kind of sad. Those who were competent in the scene years ago have often been non-starters professionally. 
Lots of wasted talent in my opinion.

I interned at Google and now work at Square, so things are going pretty well.

Are you a senior developer yet lawl?
Still just making perfect compilers 
Don’t worry bro, not everyone can have the expression !IsMendaciousNitwit() evaluate to true.
You and Taharok were probably only a couple years apart from being interns at the same time
School. Eating pizza rolls. Partying. Yep.
I’m just glad to know that 9 years later a post I made when I was 12 is my entire legacy. Maybe next year I’ll release a 10th anniversary update?
