I'm a dude.
I'm a geek dude.
I'm a geek dude dad.
I'm a geek dude daddy dork.
I love to get my geek on, but I'll shorthand it.
I love comics...
I have been a reader since elementary school. These days my favorites stories come from the Marvel Cosmic universe, from Thanos and Silver Surfer to The Watchers and The One Above All.
I love craft beer...
From hoppy IPAs to roasty stouts, craft beer is just amazing. And that means drinking them and brewing them. Except for sours, those are just nasty.
And I am a code monkey...
I have been a software developer for almost 20 years. Microsoft C# / ASP.NET / Web API is my platform of choice. Currently, migrating over to .Net Core and eventually MAUI.
LIGHTNING ROOOOOOOOUND!!!
My false dichotomies:
Star Trek over Star Wars
Picard over Kirk, but TOS over TNG
Marvel over DC
Model rocketry over model trains
Pancakes over waffles
Movies over films
99% over 1% (the needs of the many...)
Best on TV (these change quickly):
Supernatural
Battlestar Galactica (2005)
The Orville
Brooklyn Nine-Nine
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel
Game of Thrones
Altered Carbon
Mr. Robot
Sherlock (BBC)
Stranger Things
Westworld
Z Nation
Daredevil / The Punisher / Jessica Jones / Luke Cage / Iron Fist / The Defenders
Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
The Walking Dead/Fear The Walking Dead
Falling Skies
Hell on Wheels
The Flash / Legends of Tomorrow / Arrow
ALL types of USB should be destroyed. No consumer hardware should exist in a quantum state where you can NEVER plug it in no matter how many ways you try until you observe it. USC-C can be inserted either way, but they become loose so quickly that no one can afford to continually and constantly replace cables.
I post about things I find wicked cool, important to humanity, nerdy development stuff, nerdy math and science stuff, and sometimes my family. And beer. And zombies.
Because when it comes to the Zombie Apocalypse, it's not IF but WHEN.
Other weird stuff:
I once dyed my hair blue. (Also purple. And green.)
I have a birthday almost annually.
I'm fluent in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, ASP.NET (VB and C#).
I love going to concerts, but never do anymore.
I love going to movies, but never do anymore.
I randomly laugh. (quite embarrassing)
I prefer the term geek or nerd over dork though I am all three.
Don't tell me what to do. You're not the boss of me!
I used to work at Microsoft.
And Planet Hollywood.
And Hard Rock Cafe.
I like to do woodworking (like tables from cherry, maple, and walnut).
I build model rockets. My highest reached over 2000 feet apogee.
I am married with three kids.
ISTJ
Phew.
