Off topic, but it's surprisingly refreshing to see someone put "Christian" next to their name in the same place they put "Mozilla hacker." The vast majority of programmers either aren't religious or hide it so well that you couldn't possibly tell if they were. (Not that being overt about it is better, either.) I understand that it's generally best not to talk religion in the professional workplace, but a person's own blog is a more neutral place to bring it up, so it's nice to see that here. It's also refreshing to see that there are other adult converts to Christianity in the programming world, as opposed to from it, which seems to be the norm in general but particularly in this field.
- solipsism 11y agoDo you find it refreshing because he's Christian? What I mean is, if instead it said "atheist" or "Muslim" would you also find it refreshing?
- sdegutis 11y agoBeing a Christian myself, yes, I do find it refreshing specifically because he's another Christian programmer. It's very rare that someone is both, let alone an adult convert to Christianity.
