From my past 5 military deployments it’s not what I would learn. It’s what I would write. On my last deployment I created a new way to perform test automation in the browser that is dramatically faster and more simple than the big tools. I also refined a tiered security model for decentralization. On the deployment prior to that one I made some refinements to my diff application and created a data model for stacked language representation (a uniform less powerful but more scalable alternative to abstract syntax trees)
- xerxesaa 4y agoThank you for your service. Out of curiosity, are you doing software stuff in the military or is this just a side hobby? If the former, I'm curious to learn about what kind of work you do. If the latter, why did you not go full time into software?
- austin-cheney 4y agoI am a signal officer. I have performed a different job on every deployment. The military is largely allergic to writing software so all the software I write are just side hustles on GitHub. I am part time military and full time software developer in the corporate world.
