Mr. Newton. Why is that the question? What does who I am have to do with what I wrote?
Now, if you'd like to know who I am, I'll be glad to tell you. I've been writing code since 1970. I started on PDP/8s and PDP/11s. I have written BAL, COBOL, Fortran, PL/1, C, C++, Java, C#, Ruby, Python, Clojure, and a bunch of other language I can't remember. I spent many years writing embedded software in 8080 assembler, to control telecommunications micr-controllers. I spent a year and a half working at Rational with Grady Booch on the first two releases of Rose (for my sins). I have written five books on software development and have edited two more. I called the meeting that founded the Agile movement, and served as the first chairman of the Agile Alliance. I was the editor-in-chief of the C++ Report for three years. I am the creator of cleancoders.com, which offers software development video training. Nowadays I spend my time speaking, teaching, making videos, writing blogs, and writing Clojure and Java code.
Is there anything else you'd like to know?
(BTW, the term "uber-hacker" is not mine, and is incorrect. I shall endeavor to get that removed.)
My mistake. This was just another one of your misreported facts. The bio line on my blog says that I am an über _geek_; not an über _hacker_. And with _that_ characterization I must agree.
